SnSe₂ Field-Effect Transistor with High On/Off Ratio and Polarity-Switchable Photoconductivity.

ABSTRACT: SnSe₂ field-effect transistor was fabricated based on exfoliated few-layered SnSe₂ flake, and its electrical and photoelectric properties have been investigated in detail. With the help of a drop of de-ionized (DI) water, the SnSe₂ FET can achieve an on/off ratio as high as ~ 10⁴ within 1 V bias, which is ever extremely difficult for SnSe₂ due to its ultrahigh carrier density (10¹⁸/cm³). Moreover, the subthreshold swing and mobility are both improved to ∼ 62 mV/decade and ~ 127 cm² V^-1 s^-1 at 300 K, which results from the efficient screening by the liquid dielectric gate. Interestingly, the SnSe₂ FET exhibits a gate bias-dependent photoconductivity, in which a competitio
