A method for preparing a large-size two-dimensional layered metal thiophosphate crystal includes the following steps: 1) weighing raw materials of indium spheres, phosphorous lumps and sulfur granules according to a predetermined amount and proportion, mixing them, and using iodine as a transport agent and potassium iodide as a molten salt; 2) adding the raw materials, the iodine and the potassium iodide to a reaction vessel together, and vacuum sealing it under a certain pressure, and then subjecting it to a high-temperature reaction; 3) taking out the products after the reaction, and washing the products to remove the residual iodine and potassium iodide and obtain large-size two-dimensional layered metal thiophosphate crystals. This method is simple and highly efficient.
