Description
PtTe₂ (Platinum Ditelluride) is a metallic transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDs) belonging to the group-X family. Known for its metallic, catalytic, and paramagnetic behavior, PtTe₂ features layers stacked through van der Waals interactions, which allow it to be easily exfoliated into thin 2D layers.
Grown Using Flux Zone Technique:
Our PtTe₂ crystals are grown through the highly controlled Flux Zone technique, ensuring no Platinum oxides, low defect densities, and a high-purity crystal structure. We offer PtTe₂ with an industry-leading 6N (99.9999%) purity level, ideal for cutting-edge research and high-performance applications.
