It is difficult to prepare by the conventional two-dimensional crystal growth method because of its unstable physicochemical properties. The thin-layer silicon phosphide crystal prepared by the liquid phase stripping method is easy to pollute a sample, the property of the sample is easy to change, and the thickness is not easy to control in the transverse direction and the longitudinal direction; because phosphorus has higher saturated vapor pressure and silicon has higher melting point, the preparation of the silicon phosphide crystal by using a Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) method is difficult to realize; the cost for preparing silicon phosphide crystals by film epitaxy is high; the Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) method for preparing the silicon phosphide crystals can be synthesized, but firstly, the raw material synthesis steps are complex, and secondly, impurities are easily introduced.

in the step 1), the substrate is sapphire.
