A Universal In‐Situ Interfacial Growth Strategy for Various MXene‐Based van der Waals Heterostructures with Uniform Heterointerfaces: The Efficient Conversion from 3D Composite to 2D Heterostructures

Two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals heterostructures endow individual 2D material with the novel functional structures, intriguing compositions, and fantastic interfaces, which efficiently provide a feasible route to overcome the intrinsic limitations of single 2D components and embrace the distinct features of different materials. However, the construction of 2D heterostructures with uniform heterointerfaces still poses significant challenges. Herein, a universal in-situ interfacial growth strategy is designed to controllably prepare a series of MXene-based tin selenides/sulfides with 2D van der Waals homogeneous heterostructures. Molten salt etching by-products that are usually recognized as undesirable impurities, are reasonably utilized by us to efficiently transform into different 2D nanostructures via in-situ interfacial growth. The obtained MXene-based 2D heterostructures present sandwiched structures and lamellar interlacing networks with uniform heterointerfaces, which demonstrate the efficient conversion from 3D composite to 2D heterostructures. Such 2D heterostructures significantly enhance charge transfer efficiency, chemical reversibility, and overall structural stability in the electrochemical process. Taking 2D-SnSe
