Molecular Doping of Multilayer MoS2 Field-Effect Transistors: Reduction in Sheet and Contact Resistances
نویسندگان
چکیده
For the first time, polyethyleneimine (PEI) doping on multilayer MoS2 field-effect transistors is investigated. A 2.6 times reduction in sheet resistance and 1.2 times reduction in contact resistance have been achieved. The enhanced electrical characteristics are also reflected in a 70% improvement in ON-current and 50% improvement in extrinsic field-effect mobility. The threshold voltage confirms a negative shift upon the molecular doping. All studies demonstrate the feasibility of PEI molecular doping in MoS2 transistors and its potential applications in layer-structured semiconducting 2-D crystals.

Air-stable surface charge transfer doping of MoS₂ by benzyl viologen.
Air-stable doping of transition metal dichalcogenides is of fundamental importance to enable a wide range of optoelectronic and electronic devices while exploring their basic material properties. Here we demonstrate the use of benzyl viologen (BV), which has one of the highest reduction potentials of all electron-donor organic compounds, as a surface charge transfer donor for MoS2 flakes. The n...
متن کاملChemical doping of MoS2 multilayer by p-toluene sulfonic acid
We report the tailoring of the electrical properties of mechanically exfoliated multilayer (ML) molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) by chemical doping. Electrical charge transport and Raman spectroscopy measurements revealed that the p-toluene sulfonic acid (PTSA) imposes n-doping in ML MoS2. The shift of threshold voltage for ML MoS2 transistor was analyzed as a function of reaction time. The threshol...

We report here the first degenerate n-doping of few-layer MoS2 and WSe2 semiconductors by surface charge transfer using potassium. High-electron sheet densities of ~1.0 × 10(13) cm(-2) and 2.5 × 10(12) cm(-2) for MoS2 and WSe2 are obtained, respectively. In addition, top-gated WSe2 and MoS2 n-FETs with selective K doping at the metal source/drain contacts are fabricated and shown to exhibit low...

We report a new strategy for fabricating 2D/2D low-resistance ohmic contacts for a variety of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) using van der Waals assembly of substitutionally doped TMDs as drain/source contacts and TMDs with no intentional doping as channel materials. We demonstrate that few-layer WSe2 field-effect transistors (FETs) with 2D/2D contacts exhibit low contact resistances o...
