ABSTRACT: A simple way to prepare field-effect transistors (FETs) using MoS₂ on tabletop is presented. Conductive silver paste was applied onto chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-grown MoS₂ as Ohmic-contact electrodes. Heating the device in vacuum further enhances the performance without damage. The final performance is comparable to that of the SiO₂-backgated devices prepared by lithography and metal evaporators. The role of the silver paste and heat treatment in vacuum is investigated by device and spectroscopic analysis.

Design and fabrication of high-performance diamond triple-gate field-effect transistors.

Project description:The lack of large-area single-crystal diamond wafers has led us to downscale diamond electronic devices. Here, we design and fabricate a hydrogenated diamond (H-diamond) triple-gate metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) to extend device downscaling and increase device output current. The device's electrical properties are compared with those of planar-type MOSFETs, which are fabricated simultaneously on the same substrate. The triple-gate MOSFET's output current (174.2 mA mm-1) is much higher than that of the planar-type device (45.2 mA mm-1), and the on/off ratio and subthreshold swing are more than 108 and as low as 110 mV dec-1, respectively. The fabrication of these H-diamond triple-gate MOSFETs will drive diamond electronic device development forward towards practical applications.

Optoelectronic synapse using monolayer MoS2 field effect transistors.

Project description:Optical data sensing, processing and visual memory are fundamental requirements for artificial intelligence and robotics with autonomous navigation. Traditionally, imaging has been kept separate from the pattern recognition circuitry. Optoelectronic synapses hold the special potential of integrating these two fields into a single layer, where a single device can record optical data, convert it into a conductance state and store it for learning and pattern recognition, similar to the optic nerve in human eye. In this work, the trapping and de-trapping of photogenerated carriers in the MoS2/SiO2 interface of a n-channel MoS2 transistor was employed to emulate the optoelectronic synapse characteristics. The monolayer MoS2 field effect transistor (FET) exhibits photo-induced short-term and long-term potentiation, electrically driven long-term depression, paired pulse facilitation (PPF), spike time dependent plasticity, which are necessary synaptic characteristics. Moreover, the device's ability to retain its conductance state can be modulated by the gate voltage, making the device behave as a photodetector for positive gate voltages and an optoelectronic synapse at negative gate voltages.

Benchmarking monolayer MoS2 and WS2 field-effect transistors.

Project description:Here we benchmark device-to-device variation in field-effect transistors (FETs) based on monolayer MoS2 and WS2 films grown using metal-organic chemical vapor deposition process. Our study involves 230 MoS2 FETs and 160 WS2 FETs with channel lengths ranging from 5 μm down to 100 nm. We use statistical measures to evaluate key FET performance indicators for benchmarking these two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) monolayers against existing literature as well as ultra-thin body Si FETs. Our results show consistent performance of 2D FETs across 1 × 1 cm2 chips owing to high quality and uniform growth of these TMDs followed by clean transfer onto device substrates. We are able to demonstrate record high carrier mobility of 33 cm2 V-1 s-1 in WS2 FETs, which is a 1.5X improvement compared to the best reported in the literature. Our experimental demonstrations confirm the technological viability of 2D FETs in future integrated circuits.

Light-Driven WSe2-ZnO Junction Field-Effect Transistors for High-Performance Photodetection.

Project description:Assembling nanomaterials into hybrid structures provides a promising and flexible route to reach ultrahigh responsivity by introducing a trap-assisted gain (G) mechanism. However, the high-gain photodetectors benefitting from long carrier lifetime often possess slow response time (t) due to the inherent G-t tradeoff. Here, a light-driven junction field-effect transistor (LJFET), consisting of an n-type ZnO belt as the channel material and a p-type WSe2 nanosheet as a photoactive gate material, to break the G-t tradeoff through decoupling the gain from carrier lifetime is reported. The photoactive gate material WSe2 under illumination enables a conductive path for externally applied voltage, which modulates the depletion region within the ZnO channel efficiently. The gain and response time are separately determined by the field effect modulation and the switching speed of LJFET. As a result, a high responsivity of 4.83 × 103 A W-1 with a gain of ≈104 and a rapid response time of ≈10 µs are obtained simultaneously. The LJFET architecture offers a new approach to realize high-gain and fast-response photodetectors without the G-t tradeoff.

Impact of device scaling on the electrical properties of MoS2 field-effect transistors.

Project description:Two-dimensional semiconducting materials are considered as ideal candidates for ultimate device scaling. However, a systematic study on the performance and variability impact of scaling the different device dimensions is still lacking. Here we investigate the scaling behavior across 1300 devices fabricated on large-area grown MoS2 material with channel length down to 30 nm, contact length down to 13 nm and capacitive effective oxide thickness (CET) down to 1.9 nm. These devices show best-in-class performance with transconductance of 185 μS/μm and a minimum subthreshold swing (SS) of 86 mV/dec. We find that scaling the top-contact length has no impact on the contact resistance and electrostatics of three monolayers MoS2 transistors, because edge injection is dominant. Further, we identify that SS degradation occurs at short channel length and can be mitigated by reducing the CET and lowering the Schottky barrier height. Finally, using a power performance area (PPA) analysis, we present a roadmap of material improvements to make 2D devices competitive with silicon gate-all-around devices.

Ambient effects on electrical characteristics of CVD-grown monolayer MoS2 field-effect transistors.

Project description:Monolayer materials are sensitive to their environment because all of the atoms are at their surface. We investigate how exposure to the environment affects the electrical properties of CVD-grown monolayer MoS2 by monitoring electrical parameters of MoS2 field-effect transistors as their environment is changed from atmosphere to high vacuum. The mobility increases and contact resistance decreases simultaneously as either the pressure is reduced or the sample is annealed in vacuum. We see a previously unobserved, non-monotonic change in threshold voltage with decreasing pressure. This result could be explained by charge transfer on the MoS2 channel and Schottky contact formation due to adsorbates at the interface between the gold contacts and MoS2. Additionally, from our electrical measurements it is plausible to infer that at room temperature and pressure water and oxygen molecules adsorbed on the surface act as interface traps and scattering centers with a density of several 1012 cm-2 eV-1, degrading the electrical properties of monolayer MoS2.

Tuning Schottky Barrier of Single-Layer MoS2 Field-Effect Transistors with Graphene Electrodes.

Project description:Two-dimensional materials have the potential to be applied in flexible and transparent electronics. In this study, single-layer MoS2 field-effect transistors (FETs) with Au/Ti-graphene heteroelectrodes were fabricated to examine the effect of the electrodes on the electrical properties of the MoS2 FETs. The contact barrier potential was tuned using an electric field. Asymmetrical gate behavior was observed owing to the difference between the MoS2 FETs, specifically between the MoS2 FETs with Au/Ti electrodes and those with graphene electrodes. The contact barrier of the MoS2 FETs with Au/Ti electrodes did not change with the electric field. However, the contact barrier at the MoS2-graphene interface could be modulated. The MoS2 FETs with Au/Ti-graphene electrodes exhibited enhanced on/off ratios (~102 times) and electron mobility (~2.5 times) compared to the MoS2 FETs with Au/Ti electrodes. These results could improve the understanding of desirable contact formation for high-performance MoS2 FETs and provide a facile route for viable electronic applications.

Reduced dopant-induced scattering in remote charge-transfer-doped MoS2 field-effect transistors.

Project description:Efficient doping for modulating electrical properties of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) semiconductors is essential for meeting the versatile requirements for future electronic and optoelectronic devices. Because doping of semiconductors, including TMDCs, typically involves generation of charged dopants that hinder charge transport, tackling Coulomb scattering induced by the externally introduced dopants remains a key challenge in achieving ultrahigh mobility 2D semiconductor systems. In this study, we demonstrated remote charge transfer doping by simply inserting a hexagonal boron nitride layer between MoS2 and solution-deposited n-type dopants, benzyl viologen. A quantitative analysis of temperature-dependent charge transport in remotely doped devices supports an effective suppression of the dopant-induced scattering relative to the conventional direct doping method. Our mechanistic investigation of the remote doping method promotes the charge transfer strategy as a promising method for material-level tailoring of electrical and optoelectronic devices based on TMDCs.

Influence of High-κ Dielectrics Integration on ALD-Based MoS2 Field-Effect Transistor Performance.

Project description:The integration of high-κ dielectrics on MoS2 field-effect transistors (FETs) is essential for the realization of MoS2 in ultrascaled nanoelectronic devices and circuits. Most studies covering this topic are based on exfoliated MoS2 flakes or chemical vapor deposition (CVD) grown MoS2 films, whereas other techniques, such as atomic layer deposition (ALD), are also gaining attention for the growth of MoS2 in recent years. In this work, we grow large-area MoS2 by means of plasma-enhanced (PE-)ALD and evaluate the influence of high-κ dielectrics on the properties of ALD-based MoS2 FETs through electrical characterization combined with surface-chemical and high-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy (HR-STEM) analyses. We grow HfO x , AlO x , or both by means of PE-ALD or thermal ALD on our fabricated devices and show that, in addition to the dielectric constant, three other major parameters related to the processing of the dielectrics can simultaneously affect the MoS2 FET electrical characteristics and govern its doping. These parameters are the stoichiometry of the dielectric, its carbon impurity content, and the degree to which the MoS2 surface oxidizes upon the dielectric growth. When grown at 100 °C, our HfO x films are oxygen-vacant whereas our AlO x films are oxygen-rich. In addition, carbon impurities are incorporated into the dielectrics at low deposition temperatures, being one of the likely causes of the MoS2 FET overall n-type performance in all of the studied cases. Our investigations also reveal that PE-ALD of HfO x or AlO x oxidizes the MoS2 surface, whereas thermal ALD AlO x leaves MoS2 almost intact. In this respect, if thermal ALD AlO x of proper thickness is grown between MoS2 and HfO x , it can reduce the degree to which the MoS2 surface oxidizes by HfO x and meanwhile improve the total dielectric constant, altogether leading to the most optimal electrical performance in ALD-based MoS2 FETs.

High-κ van der Waals Oxide MoO3 as Efficient Gate Dielectric for MoS2 Field-Effect Transistors.

Project description:Two-dimensional van der Waals crystals (2D vdW) are recognized as one of the potential materials to solve the physical limits caused by size scaling. Here, vdW metal oxide MoO3 is applied with the gate dielectric in a 2D field-effect transistor (FET). Due to its high dielectric constant and the good response of MoS2 to visible light, we obtained a field effect transistor for photodetection. In general, the device exhibits a threshold voltage near 0 V, Ion/Ioff ratio of 105, electron mobility about 85 cm2 V-1 s-1 and a good response to visible light, the responsivity is near 5 A/W at low laser power, which shows that MoO3 is a potential material as gate dielectric.
