Platinum diselenide (PtSe2) is a newly discovered Group-10 transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) which has unique electronic properties, in particular a semimetal-to-semiconductor transition. In this work, we have demonstrated the proposed vertically standing layered structure PtSe2 nanofilms based on hybrid heterojunction with high overall performance was realized for broadband light photodetection ranging from 200 nm to 1550 nm. The high-performance broadband photodetector will open up a new pathway for the development of next-generation two dimensional Group-10 materials based optoelectronic devices.
