چکیده

We perform high-resolution photoelectron spectroscopy on in situ cleaved topological insulator Bi2Se3 single crystals and in situ transport measurements on Bi2Se3 films grown by molecular beam epitaxy. We demonstrate efficient electron depletion of Bi2Se3 via vacuum deposition of molecular MoO3, lowering the surface Fermi energy to within ∼100 meV of the Dirac point, well into the topological regime. A 100 nm MoO3 film provides an air-stable doping and passivation layer.

Intrinsic electron-phonon resistivity of Bi2Se3 in the topological regime.

We measure the temperature-dependent carrier density and resistivity of the topological surface state of thin exfoliated Bi(2)Se(3) in the absence of bulk conduction. When the gate-tuned chemical potential is near or below the Dirac point, the carrier density is strongly temperature-dependent, reflecting thermal activation from the nearby bulk valence band, while, above the Dirac point, unipola...

Controlling Charge Injection Properties in Polymer Field-Effect Transistor by Incorporation of Solution Processed Molybdenum Trioxide

A simply and facilely synthesized MoO3 solution was developed to fabricate charge injection layers for improving the charge-injection properties in p-type organic field-effect transistors (OFETs). By dissolving MoO3 powder in ammonium (NH3) solvent under air atmosphere, an intermediate ammonium molybdate ((NH4)2MoO4) precursor is made stable, transparent and to be spin-coated to form the MoO3 i...

Controlled MOCVD growth of Bi2Se3 topological insulator nanoribbons.

Topological insulators are a new class of materials that support topologically protected electronic surface states. Potential applications of the surface states in low dissipation electronic devices have motivated efforts to create nanoscale samples with large surface-to-volume ratios and highly controlled stoichiometry. Se vacancies in Bi(2)Se(3) give rise to bulk conduction, which masks the t...

Investigation on structural, thermal, optical and sensing properties of meta-stable hexagonal MoO3 nanocrystals of one dimensional structure

Hexagonal molybdenum oxide (h-MoO(3)) was synthesized by a solution based chemical precipitation technique. Analysis by X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed that the as-synthesized powder had a metastable hexagonal structure. The characteristic vibrational band of Mo-O was identified from Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron ...
