description Abstract Thickness‐dependent chemical and physical properties have gained tremendous interest since the emergence of two‐dimensional (2D) materials. Despite attractive prospects, the thickness‐controlled synthesis of ultrathin nanosheets remains an outstanding challenge. Here, a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) route is reported to controllably synthesize high‐quality PtSe2 nanosheets with tunable thickness and explore their thickness‐dependent electronic and magnetotransport properties. Raman spectroscopic studies demonstrate all Eg, A1g, A2u, and Eu modes are red shift in thicker nanosheets. Electrical measurements demonstrate the 1.7 nm thick nanosheet is a semiconductor with room temperature field‐effect mobility of 66 cm2 V−1 s−1 and on/off ratio of 106. The 2.3–3.8 nm thick nanosheets show slightly gated modulation with high field‐effect mobility up to 324 cm2 V−1 s−1 at room‐temperature. When the thickness is over 3.8 nm, the nanosheets show metallic behavior with conductivity and breakdown current density up to 6.8 × 105 S m–1 and 6.9 × 107 A cm−2, respectively. Interestingly, magnetoresistance (MR) studies reveal magnetic orders exist in this intrinsically non‐magnetic material system, as manifested by the thickness‐dependent Kondo effect, where both metal to insulator transition and negative MR appear upon cooling. Together, these studies suggest that PtSe2 is an intriguing system for both developing novel functional electronics and conducting fundamental 2D magnetism study.
