Atomic Layer Deposition of a High-k Dielectric on MoS2 Using Trimethylaluminum and Ozone
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an Al2O3 dielectric layer on molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), deposited using atomic layer deposition (ALD) with ozone/trimethylaluminum (TMA) and water/TMA as precursors. The results of atomic force microscopy and low-energy ion scattering spectroscopy show that using TMA and ozone as precursors leads to the formation of uniform Al2O3 layers, in contrast to the incomplete coverage we observe when using TMA/H2O as precursors. Our Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements indicate minimal variations in the MoS2 structure after ozone treatment at 200 °C, suggesting its excellent chemical resistance to ozone.

Improved Gate Dielectric Deposition and Enhanced Electrical Stability for Single-Layer MoS2 MOSFET with an AlN Interfacial Layer
Transistors based on MoS2 and other TMDs have been widely studied. The dangling-bond free surface of MoS2 has made the deposition of high-quality high-k dielectrics on MoS2 a challenge. The resulted transistors often suffer from the threshold voltage instability induced by the high density traps near MoS2/dielectric interface or inside the gate dielectric, which is detrimental for the practical...
متن کاملMoS2 Dual-Gate MOSFET With Atomic-Layer-Deposited Al2O3 as Top-Gate Dielectric
We demonstrate atomic-layer-deposited (ALD) high-k dielectric integration on 2-D layer-structured molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) crystals and MoS2 dual-gate n-channel MOSFETs with ALD Al2O3 as the gate dielectric. Our C–V study of MOSFET structures shows good interface between 2-D MoS2 crystal and ALD Al2O3. Maximum drain currents using back gates and top gates are measured to be 7.07 and 6.42 mA/...

Atomic layer deposition was employed to deposit relatively thick ( 30 nm) aluminum oxide (Al2O3) using trimethylaluminum and triply-distilled H2O precursors onto epitaxial graphene grown on the Si-face of silicon carbide. Ex situ surface conditioning by a simple wet chemistry treatment was used to render the otherwise chemically inert graphene surface more amenable to dielectric deposition. The...
متن کاملUniform Growth of Sub-5-Nanometer High-κ Dielectrics on MoS2 Using Plasma-Enhanced Atomic Layer Deposition.
Regardless of the application, MoS2 requires encapsulation or passivation with a high-quality dielectric, whether as an integral aspect of the device (as with top-gated field-effect transistors (FETs)) or for protection from ambient conditions. However, the chemically inert surface of MoS2 prevents uniform growth of a dielectric film using atomic layer deposition (ALD)-the most controlled synth...

Praseodymium aluminum oxide (PAO) thin films were grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD) from a new precursor, tris(N,N′-diisopropylacetamidinato) praseodymium, (Pr(amd)3), trimethylaluminum (TMA), and water. Smooth, amorphous films having varying compositions of the general formula PrxAl2–xO3 were deposited on HF-last silicon and analyzed for physical and electrical characteristics. The films ...
