“…Once the interfacial bonding formed, the anisotropic surface energy of orthorhombic Sb 2 Se 3 determines the (Sb 4 Se 6 ) n ribbons extend to [001] direction. [ 2,5,7,20 ] In this case, the growth process might be in an island‐like formation mode (Volmer–Weber mode), [ 21 ] as shown in Figure 2j, where the reached Se, Sb, and Sb–Se species could diffuse and absorbed by these stable nuclei, and the nuclei grow to Sb 2 Se 3 crystalline seeds that maintain their original orientations. Then, according to the calculation results, the surfaces parallel to the c ‐axes: (100), (010), (110), and (120), have lower surface energies than the (001), (211), and (221) surfaces.…”
