Salt-Catalyzed Directed Growth of Bilayer Palladium Diselenide (PdSe2) Dendrites and Pd Nanoparticle-Decorated PdSe2–Pd2Se3 Junction Exhibiting Very High Surface Enhanced Raman Scattering Sensitivity
While the chemical stoichiometry does not change with a reduction in layer numbers for most of the two-dimensional (2D) layered materials, the multilayer Pd2Se3 in the noble transition-metal chalcogenides (NTMDs) group changes its stoichiometry to palladium diselenide (PdSe2) in the bilayer form under Se-rich growth conditions. The experimental realization of PdSe2–Pd2Se3 junctions and their application in various sensing applications are yet to be explored. Herein, we introduce a salt (NaCl) catalyzed chemical vapor deposition growth of bilayer (2L) PdSe2 dendrites and PdSe2–Pd2Se3 junctions on the mica substrate through the salt solution pretreatment. The pretreated structure triggers the formation of molten Pd–O droplets, which undergo a phase evolution from Pd nanoparticles (NPs) to Pd2Se3 (in Se-poor condition) to PdSe2 (in Se-rich condition). Dendritic 2L PdSe2 can be transferred from a growth substrate to an arbitrary substrate on a centimeter-scale through a polymer-free water-assisted transfer technique, which results in abundant PdSe2–Pd2Se3 junctions due to the vacancy creation during the transfer process. Remarkably, Pd NPs hotspots on PdSe2–Pd2Se3 junctions enable significant surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) enhancement with an enhancement factor (EF ∼ 3 × 105), which is more than 1 order of magnitude higher than that of 2L PdSe2 to detect methylene blue molecules due to multiple factors, such as charge transfer and electromagnetic field enhancement. This is confirmed by density functional theory calculations and Finite element method (FEM) simulation, along with Raman imaging. The FEM simulations revealed an electric field enhancement factor of 5.546 × 103 for Pd NPs decorated bilayer PdSe2, and the remaining enhancement factor is expected to be contributed by charge transfer mechanisms. This work divulges the controllable protocol for the low-temperature chemical vapor deposition growth of 2L PdSe2 and PdSe2–Pd2Se3 junctions with facile transfer to arbitrary substrates and is indispensable for unleashing its full potential in a wide range of sensing, electronic, photonic, and biomedical applications.
期刊介绍:
The journal Chemistry of Materials focuses on publishing original research at the intersection of materials science and chemistry. The studies published in the journal involve chemistry as a prominent component and explore topics such as the design, synthesis, characterization, processing, understanding, and application of functional or potentially functional materials. The journal covers various areas of interest, including inorganic and organic solid-state chemistry, nanomaterials, biomaterials, thin films and polymers, and composite/hybrid materials. The journal particularly seeks papers that highlight the creation or development of innovative materials with novel optical, electrical, magnetic, catalytic, or mechanical properties. It is essential that manuscripts on these topics have a primary focus on the chemistry of materials and represent a significant advancement compared to prior research. Before external reviews are sought, submitted manuscripts undergo a review process by a minimum of two editors to ensure their appropriateness for the journal and the presence of sufficient evidence of a significant advance that will be of broad interest to the materials chemistry community.
