Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the challenges of synthesizing PtSe layers on inexpensive substrates while ensuring high quality and controlled thickness.
- Researchers used a thermally assisted conversion method to grow these layers on soda lime glass, confirming the results through various analytical techniques.
- They demonstrated the potential of PtSe as transparent conductive layers in innovative devices, such as liquid crystal structures, paving the way for cost-effective optoelectronic applications.
We present a review of phase formation tendencies, methods for preparation and optical properties of alloys and compounds from the binary systems of silver or gold with metals and metalloids from the p-block of the Periodic system of elements. Reference data about the homogeneity regions in the systems of interest, together with information about the crystalline structure of existing indexed compounds in them, is proposed and statistically analyzed. General background for the synthesis of intermetallic alloys and compounds, and the tendencies for their preparation for plasmonic purposes are presented.
