2D semiconductors are excellent candidates for next‐generation electronics and optoelectronics thanks to their electrical properties and strong light‐matter interaction. To fabricate devices with optimal electrical properties, it is crucial to have both high‐quality semiconducting crystals and ideal contacts at metal‐semiconductor interfaces. Thanks to the mechanical exfoliation of van der Waals crystals, atomically thin high‐quality single‐crystals can easily be obtained in a laboratory. However, conventional metal deposition techniques can introduce chemical disorder and metal‐induced mid‐gap states that induce Fermi level pinning and can degrade the metal‐semiconductor interfaces, resulting in poorly performing devices. In this article, the electrical contact characteristics of Au–InSe and graphite–InSe van der Waals contacts, obtained by stacking mechanically exfoliated InSe flakes onto pre‐patterned Au or graphite electrodes without the need for lithography or metal deposition is explored. The high quality of the metal‐semiconductor interfaces obtained by van der Waals contact allows to fabricate high‐quality Schottky diodes based on the Au–InSe Schottky barrier. The experimental observation indicates that the contact barrier at the graphite–InSe interface is negligible due to the similar electron affinity of InSe and graphite, while the Au–InSe interfaces are dominated by a large Schottky barrier.  相似文献

The van der Waals (vdW) contact, characterized by its bondless interactions, opens up exciting possibilities in cutting-edge mask technology. It enables incredibly close proximity to samples at the atomic level while facilitating non-destructive engineering. In this study, the concept of a vdW metal mask using the template striped ultra-flat Ag/Au film is introduced. The probe tip-assisted metal film transfer under an optical microscope is employed to showcase all-solid and residue-free engineering on 2D materials. The robust nature of the vdW metal mask allows for various treatments, including gas, liquid, solid, plasma, and light, making it a universal tool for fabricating 2D material-based devices and samples with sub-1 µm resolution, all without the need for lithography technologies. With the superiority in simple sample fabrication, ultra-clean surfaces, and robustness under harsh conditions, the technique is believed to flourish in the 2D material research field.  相似文献

The recent realization of 2D magnetism in van der Waals (vdWs) magnets holds promise for future information technology. However, the vdWs semiconducting ferromagnets, which remain rare, are especially important in developing 2D magnetic devices with new functionalities due to the possibility of simultaneous control of the carrier charge and spin. Metal thiophosphate (MTP), a multifunctional vdWs material system that combines the sought‐after properties of complex oxides, is a promising vdWs magnet system. Here, single crystals of a novel vdWs ferromagnetic semiconductor MTP AgVP2Se6 with a room‐temperature resistivity of 1 Ω m are successfully synthesized. Due to the nature of vdWs bonding along the c‐axis, the magnetic properties of the few‐layer AgVP2Se6 with different thicknesses are characterized on the exfoliated samples. The AgVP2Se6 flakes exhibit significant thickness‐dependent magnetic properties, and a rectangular hysteresis loop with a large coercive field of 750 Oe at 2 K and an undiminished Curie temperature of 19 K are observed in the 6.7 nm AgVP2Se6 flake. The discovered vdWs ferromagnet AgVP2Se6 with semiconducting behavior will provide alternative platforms for exploring 2D magnetism and potential applications in spintronic devices.  相似文献

Van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs) based on 2D layered materials with selectable materials properties pave the way to integration at the atomic scale, which may give rise to fresh heterostructures exhibiting absolutely novel physics and versatility. This feature article reviews the state‐of‐the‐art research activities that focus on the 2D vdWHs and their optoelectronic applications. First, the preparation methods such as mechanical transfer and chemical vapor deposition growth are comprehensively outlined. Then, unique energy band alignments generated in 2D vdWHs are introduced. Furthermore, this feature article focuses on the applications in light‐emitting diodes, photodetectors, and optical modulators based on 2D vdWHs with novel constructions and mechanisms. The recently reported novel constructions of the devices are introduced in three primary aspects: light‐emitting diodes (such as single defect light‐emitting diodes, circularly polarized light emission arising from valley polarization), photodetectors (such as photo‐thermionic, tunneling, electrolyte‐gated, and broadband photodetectors), and optical modulators (such as graphene integrated with silicon technology and graphene/hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) heterostructure), which show promising applications in the next‐generation optoelectronics. Finally, the article provides some conclusions and an outlook on the future development in the field.  相似文献

2D van der Waals heterojunctions (vdWhs) are a novel type of metamaterial that are flexible, adjustable, and easy to assemble. Using weak van der Waals forces (vdWfs), layered 2D materials can stack freely to form vdWhs with atomic level flat interfaces. By using different 2D materials and specific stacking methods, their unique properties can be organically combined, to exhibit more abundant optical properties. In fact, nanophotonic devices based on 2D vdWhs have developed rapidly and made significant progress. Therefore, the main progress of 2D vdWhs nanophotonic devices in recent years, including the preparation methods of 2D vdWhs and the performance improvements of various nanophotonic devices, is reviewed. Lastly, the prospects of 2D vdWhs nanophotonic devices are discussed.  相似文献

Two‐dimensional (2D) van der Waals materials with in‐plane anisotropy are of great interest for directional transport of charge and energy, as exemplified by recent studies on black phosphorus and α‐phase molybdenum trioxide (α‐MO3). Here, a layered van der Waals semiconductor with in‐plane anisotropy built upon the superatomic units of Mo6S3Br6 is reported. This material possesses robust 2D characteristics with a direct gap of 1.64 eV, as determined by scanning tunneling spectroscopy and first‐principles calculations. Polarization‐dependent Raman spectroscopy measurement and density functional theory calculation reveal strong in‐plane anisotropy. These results suggest an effective strategy to explore anisotropic 2D electronic and optoelectronic properties from superatomic building blocks with multifunctionality, emergent properties, and hierarchical control.  相似文献

Group III-nitrides have attracted significant attention in recent years for their wide tunable band-gaps and excellent optoelectronic capabilities, which are advantageous for several applications including light-emitting diodes, lasers, photodetectors, and large-size low-cost power electronic devices. However, conventional epitaxy accompanied by the covalent bond formation renders the transfer of nitride epilayers difficult, thereby limiting the application potential of nitrides in wearable and flexible electronics. Furthermore, interfacial covalent bonds also limit substrate selection and hinder the development of heterogeneous integration between nitrides and other material systems. 2D materials can mitigate these problems significantly. On the one hand, due to the weak van der Waals forces between the layers of 2D materials, influences of lattice mismatch can be avoided to improve crystal quality. On the other hand, delamination and transfer of nitride epilayers can be achieved easily. Therefore, this study focuses on providing comprehensive guidelines regarding the exfoliation of epitaxial layers using 2D materials to provide new design freedoms for nitride devices. Different 2D buffers and release layers have also been discussed. Furthermore, the limitations, promising solutions, future directions, and applicability of this strategy to flexible nitride devices are presented.  相似文献

2D ferromagnetic semiconductors are key to next-generation spintronic devices in the post-Moore era. The combination of ferromagnetic and optoelectronic properties offers exciting opportunities for advanced multifunctional devices in spin-optoelectronic applications. Herein, the authors synthesize 2D van der Waals (vdW) CoxSn1-xS with ferromagnetism and photoresponse through a bottom-up reaction, which has a high yield compared to typical mechanical exfoliation. Ferromagnetic ordering is realized in 2D vdW semiconductor SnS by Co doping at the Sn sites. Magnetic properties are thoroughly studied at different doping concentrations, and first-principles calculations are further performed to reveal the magnetism origin and spin interactions. In particular, a low Gilbert damping of 1.69 × 10−3 is obtained in vdW CoxSn1−xS through ferromagnetic resonance. In addition, photodetectors based on CoxSn1−xS quantum dots are demonstrated. These studies establish a promising semiconductor with both ferromagnetic ordering and photoelectric response, which provides unprecedented opportunities in spintronic-photonic integrated applications.  相似文献

Emergent properties of 2D materials attract considerable interest in condensed matter physics and materials science due to their distinguished features that are missing in their bulk counterparts. A mainstream in this research field is to broaden the scope of material to expand the horizons of the research area, while developing functional interfaces between different 2D materials is another indispensable research direction. Here, the emergence of electrical conduction at the interface between insulating 2D materials is demonstrated. A new class of van der Waals heterostructures consisting of two sets of insulating transition‐metal dichalcogenides, group‐VI WSe2 and group‐IV TMSe2 (TM = Zr, Hf), is developed via molecular‐beam epitaxy, and it is found that those heterostructures are highly conducting although all the constituent materials are highly insulating. The WSe2/ZrSe2 interface exhibits more conducting behavior than the WSe2/HfSe2 interface, which can be understood by considering the band alignments between constituent materials. Moreover, by increasing Se flux during heterostructure fabrication, the WSe2/ZrSe2 interface becomes more conducting, reaching nearly metallic behavior. Further improvement of the crystalline quality as well as exploring different material combinations are expected to lead to metallic conduction, providing a novel functionality emerging at van der Waals heterostructures.  相似文献

High contact resistances have blocked the progress of devices based on MX2 (M = Mo, W; X = S, Se, Te) 2D semiconductors. Interface states formed at MX2/metal contacts pin the Fermi level, leading to sizable Schottky barriers for p‐type contacts in particular. It is shown that i) one can remove the interface states by covering the metal by a 2D layer, which is van der Waals‐bonded to the MX2 layer, and ii) one can choose the buffer layer such that it yields a p‐type contact with a zero Schottky barrier height. Possible buffer layers are graphene, a monolayer of h‐BN, or an oxide layer with a high electron affinity, such as MoO3. The most elegant solution is a metallic M′ X′2 layer with a high work function. A NbS2 monolayer adsorbed on a metal yields a high work function contact, irrespective of the metal, which gives a barrierless contact to all MX2 layers.  相似文献

Research on van der Waals heterostructures based on stacked 2D atomic crystals is intense due to their prominent properties and potential applications for flexible transparent electronics and optoelectronics. Here, nonvolatile memory devices based on floating‐gate field‐effect transistors that are stacked with 2D materials are reported, where few‐layer black phosphorus acts as channel layer, hexagonal boron nitride as tunnel barrier layer, and MoS2 as charge trapping layer. Because of the ambipolar behavior of black phosphorus, electrons and holes can be stored in the MoS2 charge trapping layer. The heterostructures exhibit remarkable erase/program ratio and endurance performance, and can be developed for high‐performance type‐switching memories and reconfigurable inverter logic circuits, indicating that it is promising for application in memory devices completely based on 2D atomic crystals.  相似文献

Palladium diselenide (PdSe2) is an emerging 2D material with exotic optical and electrical properties and widely tunable layer dependent band gap in the infrared regime. The ability to further tune the electronic properties of PdSe2 via doping is of fundamental importance for a wide range of electronic and optoelectronic device applications. Here, surface charge transfer doping of chemical vapor deposition grown p-type PdSe2 thin film using benzyl viologen (BV) molecules is reported. The electrical transport measurements of the PdSe2 device show an increase in resistance by ≈1700 percent from 2.1 MΩ for the pristine sample to 36.2 MΩ upon BV doping, revealing electrons are transferred from BV molecules to PdSe2 resulting in an n-doping. Raman characterization shows a red-shift and broadening of A3g characteristic peak for the doped sample, while X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy shows a negative shift in Pd 3d and Se 3d binding energies confirming n-doping by BV. Kelvin force probe microscopy measurements show a ≈0.3 eV decrease in work function for doped PdSe2, consistent with the n-doping by BV molecules. A selective doping of PdSe2 channel is implemented for the fabrication of lateral heterojunction device which shows good current rectifying behavior with a rectification ratio of up to ≈55.  相似文献

Owning unique optical and electronic properties, two dimensional (2D) materials have made remarkable strides in the field of photodetection applications. However, achieving highly sensitive and ultra-broadband detection from microwave to terahertz (THz) range (0.02–0.54 THz) remains a significant challenge for photodetectors. This study presents a self-powered THz photodetector based on VSe2 and its van der Waals heterostructure. The photoresponse of the photodetector is primarily attributed to the photothermoelectric effect. At room temperature, the device exhibits lower noise equivalent power values of 21 pW Hz−1/2 at 0.28 THz. This work has achieved ultra-broadband detection and demonstrated the potential for large-area imaging, providing a new avenue for the application of THz technology in nondestructive testing and biometric identification fields.  相似文献

Due to its unique band structure and topological properties, the 2D topological semimetal exhibits potential applications in photoelectric detection, polarization sensitive imaging, and Schottky barrier diodes. However, its inherent large dark current hinders the further improvement of the performance of the semimetal-based photodetectors. In this study, a van der Waals (vdWs) field effect transistor (FET) composed of semimetal PdTe2 and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) WSe2 is fabricated, which exhibits high sensitivity photoelectric detection performance in a wide band from visible light (405 nm) to mid-infrared (5 µm). The dark current and the noise level in the device are greatly suppressed by the effective control of the gate. Benefiting from the extremely low dark current (1.2 pA), the device achieves an optical on/off ratio up to 106, a high detectivity of 9.79 × 1013 Jones and a rapid response speed (219 and 45 µs). This research demonstrates the latent capacity of the 2D topological semimetal/TMDs vdWs FET for broadband, high-performance, and miniaturized photodetection.  相似文献

With the advent of the post Moore era, modern electronics require further device miniaturization of all electronic components, particularly ferroelectric memories, due to the need for massive data storage. This demand stimulates the exploration of robust switchable ferroelectric polarizations at the atomic scale. In this scenario, van der Waals ferroelectrics have recently gained increasing attention because of their stable layered structure at nanometer thickness, offering the opportunity to realize two-dimensional ferroelectricity that is long-sought in conventional thin film ferroelectrics. In this review, recent advancements are summarized in layered ferroelectrics with highlights of the fundamentals of intrinsic two-dimensional ferroelectricity, the emergence of artificial stacking ferroelectricity, and related protype devices with exotic functions. In addition, the unique polarization control in van der Waals ferroelectrics is discussed. Although great challenges remain unsolved, these studies undoubtedly advance the integration of 2D ferroelectrics in electronics.  相似文献

Devices based on 2DMs van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures always compose of multiple contacts. Due to the instability of nanoscale 2DMs and interfaces, these contacts can be affected by the operation-induced photo or thermal effect. They can trigger the evolution of junctions and rearrange the junctions across a device, which are detrimental for applications. Herein, vdW heterostructure of indium selenide (InSe) and black phosphorus (BP) on Au electrodes are investigated to reveal the contact evolution and its relation to device performance. During operation, light irradiation changes the I–V characteristics from symmetry to strong rectification. Photocurrent mapping and Kelvin-probe force microscopy (KPFM) reveal triple junctions in this heterostructure, i.e., Au-InSe junction, InSe homojunction, and InSe-BP heterojunction. The variation of I–V characteristics of vdW heterostructure is ascribed to the evolution of Au-InSe junction from quasi-ohmic junction with a near-zero work function difference (Δφ) to a strong Schottky junction (Δφ = ≈0.27 eV). The stabilized device demonstrates distinguished time-domain response at individual junctions and overall device, indicating the evolution of contacts and the consequent opposite junction directions degrade the overall device performance. This research emphasizes the importance of dealing with heterogeneous contacts and junction directions in designing vdW heterostructure photodetectors.  相似文献

As a promising candidate for the much-desired low power consumption spintronic devices, 2D magnetic van der Waals material also provides a versatile platform for the design and control of topological spin textures. In this work on WTe2/CrCl3 bilayer van der Waals heterostructures, a complete Néel-type skyrmion–bimeron–ferromagnet phase transition is demonstrated, accompanied by the evolution of the topological number. This cyclic transition, mediated by a perpendicular magnetic field, is largely driven by the competition between the out-of-plane magnetocrystalline anisotropy and magnetic dipole–dipole interaction. In the presence of a driving current, the Néel-type skyrmion gains a higher velocity yet larger skyrmion Hall angle, in comparison to the bimeron. By incorporating a ferroelectric CuInP2S6 monolayer as a substrate, writing and erasing of skyrmions may be regulated using a ferroelectric polarization. This work sheds light on a novel approach to the design and control of magnetic skyrmions on 2D van der Waals materials.  相似文献

Van der Waals (vdWs) heterostructures enable bandgap engineering of different 2D materials to realize the interlayer transition via type-II band alignment leading to broaden spectrum that is beyond the cut-off wavelength of individual 2D materials. Interlayer transition has a significant effect on the optoelectronic performance of vdWs heterostructure devices, and strong interlayer transition in 2D vdWs heterojunction is always demandable for sufficient charge transfer and rapid speed response. Herein, a state-of-the-art review is presented on recent progress on interlayer transition in vdWs heterostructures for near-infrared (NIR) photodetectors. First, the general synthesis techniques for vdWs heterostructures, band alignments in the vdWs heterostructures are provided. Then, the mechanism of interlayer transition in vdWs heterostructure and recent progress on interlayer transition in vdWs heterostructures for NIR photodetectors are summarized. Afterward, some worthy applications of NIR photodetectors are reviewed in related areas of this topic. At the last, an outlook, challenges, and future research directions of vdWs heterostructures for photodetectors at broaden response spectrum are presented.  相似文献
