Tin (II) selenide (SnSe) is an emerging 2D material with many intriguing properties, such as record-high thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT), purely in-plane ferroelectricity, and excellent nonlinear optical properties. To explore these functional properties and related applications, a crucial step is to develop controllable routes to synthesize large-area, ultrathin, and high-quality SnSe crystals. Physical vapor deposition (PVD) constitutes a reliable method to synthesize 2D SnSe, however, effects of various growth parameters have not yet been systematically investigated, and current PVD-synthesized flakes are often thick (>10 nm) with small lateral sizes (<10 µm). In this work, high-quality 2D SnSe crystals are synthesized via low-pressure PVD, which display in-plane ferroelectric domains observed by piezoresponse force microscopy and polarization-dependent reflection spectroscopy. Detailed studies regarding the roles of various parameters are further carried out, including substrate pre-annealing, growth duration, temperature, and pressure, which enable to rationally optimize the growth and obtain 2D SnSe crystals with lateral sizes up to ≈23.0 µm and thicknesses down to ≈2.0 nm (3–4 layers). This work paves the way for the controlled growth of large-area 2D SnSe, facilitating the future exploration of many interesting multiferroic properties and applications with atomic thickness.
