Abstract
Low‐dimensional Te‐based nanomaterials have attracted intense attention in recent years due to their novel physical properties including surface‐state effects, photoelectricity, phase changes, and thermoelectricity. The recent development of synthesis methods of low‐dimensional Te‐based nanostructures is reviewed, such as van der Waals expitaxial growth and template‐assisted solution‐phase deposition. In addition, the unique properties of these materials, such as tunable surface states, high photoresponsivity, fast phase change, and high thermoelectricity figure of merit, are reviewed. The potential applications of low‐dimensional Te‐based nanostructures are broad but particularly promising for nanoscale electronic and photoelectronic devices.Keywords
