PtS2 is a layered transition metal dichalcogenide semiconductor composed of platinum and sulfur, belonging to the MX₂ family of materials. While primarily a research compound rather than a commercial engineering material, PtS2 is investigated for applications leveraging its two-dimensional properties and electronic characteristics, particularly in nanoelectronics, optoelectronics, and catalysis where its layered structure enables exfoliation into few-layer or monolayer sheets. Engineers and researchers consider PtS2 when exploring alternatives to graphene and molybdenum dichalcogenides (MoS₂) for next-generation devices, as platinum-based dichalcogenides offer distinct band structures and potential advantages in specific sensing or energy conversion applications.
