A systematic modulation of the carrier type in molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe2) field‐effect transistors (FETs) is described, through rapid thermal annealing (RTA) under a controlled O2 environment (p‐type modulation) and benzyl viologen (BV) doping (n‐type modulation). Al2O3 capping is then introduced to improve the carrier mobilities and device stability. MoTe2 is found to be ultrasensitive to O2 at elevated temperatures (250 °C). Charge carriers of MoTe2 flakes annealed via RTA at various vacuum levels are tuned between predominantly pristine n‐type ambipolar, symmetric ambipolar, unipolar p‐type, and degenerate‐like p‐type. Changes in the MoTe2‐transistor performance are confirmed to originate from the physical and chemical absorption and dissociation of O2, especially at tellurium vacancy sites. The electron branch is modulated by varying the BV dopant concentrations and annealing conditions. Unipolar n‐type MoTe2 FETs with a high on–off ratio exceeding 106 are achieved under optimized doping conditions. By introducing Al2O3 capping, carrier field effect mobilities (41 for holes and 80 cm2 V?1 s?1 for electrons) and device stability are improved due to the reduced trap densities and isolation from ambient air. Lateral MoTe2 p–n diodes with an ideality factor of 1.2 are fabricated using the p‐ and n‐type doping technique to test the superb potential of the doping method in functional electronic device applications.  相似文献

To realize basic electronic units such as complementary metal‐oxide‐semiconductor (CMOS) inverters and other logic circuits, the selective and controllable fabrication of p‐ and n‐type transistors with a low Schottky barrier height is highly desirable. Herein, an efficient and nondestructive technique of electron‐charge transfer doping by depositing a thin Al2O3 layer on chemical vapor deposition (CVD)‐grown 2H‐MoTe2 is utilized to tune the doping from p‐ to n‐type. Moreover, a type‐controllable MoTe2 transistor with a low Schottky barrier height is prepared. The selectively converted n‐type MoTe2 transistor from the p‐channel exhibits a maximum on‐state current of 10 µA, with a higher electron mobility of 8.9 cm2 V?1 s?1 at a drain voltage (Vds) of 1 V with a low Schottky barrier height of 28.4 meV. To validate the aforementioned approach, a prototype homogeneous CMOS inverter is fabricated on a CVD‐grown 2H‐MoTe2 single crystal. The proposed inverter exhibits a high DC voltage gain of 9.2 with good dynamic behavior up to a modulation frequency of 1 kHz. The proposed approach may have potential for realizing future 2D transition metal dichalcogenide‐based efficient and ultrafast electronic units with high‐density circuit components under a low‐dimensional regime.  相似文献

Recently, α‐MoTe2, a 2D transition‐metal dichalcogenide (TMD), has shown outstanding properties, aiming at future electronic devices. Such TMD structures without surface dangling bonds make the 2D α‐MoTe2 a more favorable candidate than conventional 3D Si on the scale of a few nanometers. The bandgap of thin α‐MoTe2 appears close to that of Si and is quite smaller than those of other typical TMD semiconductors. Even though there have been a few attempts to control the charge‐carrier polarity of MoTe2, functional devices such as p–n junction or complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) inverters have not been reported. Here, we demonstrate a 2D CMOS inverter and p–n junction diode in a single α‐MoTe2 nanosheet by a straightforward selective doping technique. In a single α‐MoTe2 flake, an initially p‐doped channel is selectively converted to an n‐doped region with high electron mobility of 18 cm2 V?1 s?1 by atomic‐layer‐deposition‐induced H‐doping. The ultrathin CMOS inverter exhibits a high DC voltage gain of 29, an AC gain of 18 at 1 kHz, and a low static power consumption of a few nanowatts. The results show a great potential of α‐MoTe2 for future electronic devices based on 2D semiconducting materials.  相似文献

Among all typical transition‐metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), the bandgap of α‐MoTe2 is smallest and is close to that of conventional 3D Si. The properties of α‐MoTe2 make it a favorable candidate for future electronic devices. Even though there are a few reports regarding fabrication of complementary metal–oxide‐semiconductor (CMOS) inverters or p–n junction by controlling the charge‐carrier polarity of TMDs, the fabrication process is complicated. Here, a straightforward selective doping technique is demonstrated to fabricate a 2D p–n junction diode and CMOS inverter on a single α‐MoTe2 nanoflake. The n‐doped channel of a single α‐MoTe2 nanoflake is selectively converted to a p‐doped region via laser‐irradiation‐induced MoOx doping. The homogeneous 2D MoTe2 CMOS inverter has a high DC voltage gain of 28, desirable noise margin (NMH = 0.52 VDD, NML = 0.40 VDD), and an AC gain of 4 at 10 kHz. The results show that the doping technique by laser scan can be potentially used for future larger‐scale MoTe2 CMOS circuits.  相似文献

Band‐like transport behavior of H‐doped transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) channels in field effect transistors (FET) is studied by conducting low‐temperature electrical measurements, where MoTe2, WSe2, and MoS2 are chosen for channels. Doped with H atoms through atomic layer deposition, those channels show strong n‐type conduction and their mobility increases without losing on‐state current as the measurement temperature decreases. In contrast, the mobility of unintentionally (naturally) doped TMD FETs always drops at low temperatures whether they are p‐ or n‐type. Density functional theory calculations show that H‐doped MoTe2, WSe2, and MoS2 have Fermi levels above conduction band edge. It is thus concluded that the charge transport behavior in H‐doped TMD channels is metallic showing band‐like transport rather than thermal hopping. These results indicate that H‐doped TMD FETs are practically useful even at low‐temperature ranges.  相似文献

Doped p–n junctions are fundamental electrical components in modern electronics and optoelectronics. Due to the development of device miniaturization, the emergence of two-dimensional (2D) materials may initiate the next technological leap toward the post-Moore era owing to their unique structures and physical properties. The purpose of fabricating 2D p–n junctions has fueled many carrier-type modulation methods, such as electrostatic doping, surface modification, and element intercalation. Here, by using the nonvolatile ferroelectric field polarized in the opposite direction, efficient carrier modulation in ambipolar molybdenum telluride (MoTe2) to form a p–n homojunction at the domain wall is demonstrated. The nonvolatile MoTe2 p–n junction can be converted to n–p, n–n, and p–p configurations by external gate voltage pulses. Both rectifier diodes exhibited excellent rectifying characteristics with a current on/off ratio of 5 × 105. As a photodetector/photovoltaic, the device presents responsivity of 5 A W−1, external quantum efficiency of 40%, specific detectivity of 3 × 1012 Jones, fast response time of 30 µs, and power conversion efficiency of 2.5% without any bias or gate voltages. The MoTe2 p–n junction presents an obvious short-wavelength infrared photoresponse at room temperature, complementing the current infrared photodetectors with the inadequacies of complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor incompatibility and cryogenic operation temperature.  相似文献

Ultrasmall silicon (Si) nanoelectronic devices require an energy shift of electronic states for n‐ and p‐conductivity. Nanocrystal self‐purification and out‐diffusion in field effect transistors cause doping to fail. Here, it is shown that silicon dioxide (SiO2) and silicon nitride (Si3N4) create energy offsets of electronic states in embedded Si quantum dots (QDs) in analogy to doping. Density functional theory (DFT), interface charge transfer (ICT), and experimental verifications arrive at the same size of QDs below which the dielectric dominates their electronic properties. Large positive energy offsets of electronic states and an energy gap increase exist for Si QDs in Si3N4 versus SiO2. Using DFT results, the SiO2/QD interface coverage is estimated with nitrogen (N) to be 0.1 to 0.5 monolayers (ML) for samples annealed in N2 versus argon (Ar). The interface impact is described as nanoscopic field effect and propose the energy offset as robust and controllable alternative to impurity doping of Si nanostructures.  相似文献

Developing processes to controllably dope transition‐metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) is critical for optical and electrical applications. Here, molecular reductants and oxidants are introduced onto monolayer TMDs, specifically MoS2, WS2, MoSe2, and WSe2. Doping is achieved by exposing the TMD surface to solutions of pentamethylrhodocene dimer as the reductant (n‐dopant) and “Magic Blue,” [N(C6H4p‐Br)3]SbCl6, as the oxidant (p‐dopant). Current–voltage characteristics of field‐effect transistors show that, regardless of their initial transport behavior, all four TMDs can be used in either p‐ or n‐channel devices when appropriately doped. The extent of doping can be controlled by varying the concentration of dopant solutions and treatment time, and, in some cases, both nondegenerate and degenerate regimes are accessible. For all four TMD materials, the photoluminescence intensity; for all four materials the PL intensity is enhanced with p‐doping but reduced with n‐doping. Raman and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) also provide insight into the underlying physical mechanism by which the molecular dopants react with the monolayer. Estimates of changes of carrier density from electrical, PL, and XPS results are compared. Overall a simple and effective route to tailor the electrical and optical properties of TMDs is demonstrated.  相似文献

The realization of large‐area electronics with full integration of 1D thread‐like devices may open up a new era for ultraflexible and human adaptable electronic systems because of their potential advantages in demonstrating scalable complex circuitry by a simply integrated weaving technology. More importantly, the thread‐like fiber electronic devices can be achieved using a simple reel‐to‐reel process, which is strongly required for low‐cost and scalable manufacturing technology. Here, high‐performance reel‐processed complementary metal‐oxide‐semiconductor (CMOS) integrated circuits are reported on 1D fiber substrates by using selectively chemical‐doped single‐walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) transistors. With the introduction of selective n‐type doping and a nonrelief photochemical patterning process, p‐ and n‐type SWCNT transistors are successfully implemented on cylindrical fiber substrates under air ambient, enabling high‐performance and reliable thread‐like CMOS inverter circuits. In addition, it is noteworthy that the optimized reel‐coating process can facilitate improvement in the arrangement of SWCNTs, building uniformly well‐aligned SWCNT channels, and enhancement of the electrical performance of the devices. The p‐ and n‐type SWCNT transistors exhibit field‐effect mobility of 4.03 and 2.15 cm2 V?1 s?1, respectively, with relatively narrow distribution. Moreover, the SWCNT CMOS inverter circuits demonstrate a gain of 6.76 and relatively good dynamic operation at a supply voltage of 5.0 V.  相似文献

Molecular doping of inorganic semiconductors is a rising topic in the field of organic/inorganic hybrid electronics. However, it is difficult to find dopant molecules which simultaneously exhibit strong reducibility and stability in ambient atmosphere, which are needed for n‐type doping of oxide semiconductors. Herein, successful n‐type doping of SnO2 is demonstrated by a simple, air‐robust, and cost‐effective triphenylphosphine oxide molecule. Strikingly, it is discovered that electrons are transferred from the R3P+? O?σ‐bond to the peripheral tin atoms other than the directly interacted ones at the surface. That means those electrons are delocalized. The course is verified by multi‐photophysical characterizations. This doping effect accounts for the enhancement of conductivity and the decline of work function of SnO2, which enlarges the built‐in field from 0.01 to 0.07 eV and decreases the energy barrier from 0.55 to 0.39 eV at the SnO2/perovskite interface enabling an increase in the conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells from 19.01% to 20.69%.  相似文献

Van der Waals materials and their heterostructures provide a versatile platform to explore new device architectures and functionalities beyond conventional semiconductors. Of particular interest is anti‐ambipolar behavior, which holds potentials for various digital electronic applications. However, most of the previously conducted studies are focused on hetero‐ or homo‐ p–n junctions, which suffer from a weak electrical modulation. Here, the anti‐ambipolar transport behavior and negative transconductance of MoTe2 transistors are reported using a graphene/h‐BN floating‐gate structure to dynamically modulate the conduction polarity. Due to the asymmetric electrical field regulating effect on the recombination and diffusion currents, the anti‐ambipolar transport and negative transconductance feature can be systematically controlled. Consequently, the device shows an unprecedented peak resistance modulation factor (≈5 × 103), and effective photoexcitation modulation with distinct threshold voltage shift and large photo on/off ratio (≈104). Utilizing this large modulation effect, the voltage‐transfer characteristics of an inverter circuit variant are further studied and its applications in Schmitt triggers and multivalue output are further explored. These properties, in addition to their proven nonvolatile storage, suggest that such 2D heterostructured devices display promising perspectives toward future logic applications.  相似文献

This work reports experimental demonstrations of reversible crystalline phase transition in ultrathin molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe2) controlled by thermal and mechanical mechanisms on the van der Waals (vdW) nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) platform, with hexagonal boron nitride encapsulated MoTe2 structure residing on top of graphene layer. Benefiting from very efficient electrothermal heating and straining effects in the suspended vdW heterostructures, MoTe2 phase transition is triggered by rising temperature and strain level. Raman spectroscopy monitors the MoTe2 crystalline phase signatures in situ and clearly records reversible phase transitions between hexagonal 2H (semiconducting) and monoclinic 1T′ (metallic) phases. Combined with Raman thermometry, precisely measured nanomechanical resonances of the vdW devices enable the determination and monitoring of the strain variations as temperature is being regulated by electrothermal control. These results not only deepen the understanding of MoTe2 phase transition, but also demonstrate a novel platform for engineering MoTe2 phase transition and multiphysical devices.  相似文献

The fabrication of in‐plane 2H‐1T′ MoTe2 homojunctions by the flux‐controlled, phase‐engineering of few‐layer MoTe2 from Mo nanoislands is reported. The phase of few‐layer MoTe2 is controlled by simply changing Te atomic flux controlled by the temperature of the reaction vessel. Few‐layer 2H MoTe2 is formed with high Te flux, while few‐layer 1T′ MoTe2 is obtained with low Te flux. With medium flux, few‐layer in‐plane 2H‐1T′ MoTe2 homojunctions are synthesized. As‐synthesized MoTe2 is characterized by Raman spectroscopy and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Kelvin probe force microscopy and Raman mapping confirm that in‐plane 2H‐1T′ MoTe2 homojunctions have abrupt interfaces between 2H and 1T′ MoTe2 domains, possessing a potential difference of about 100 mV. It is further shown that this method can be extended to create patterned metal–semiconductor junctions in MoTe2 in a two‐step lithographic synthesis. The flux‐controlled phase engineering method could be utilized for the large‐scale controlled fabrication of 2D metal–semiconductor junctions for next‐generation electronic and optoelectronic devices.  相似文献

Transition metal dichalcogenides exhibit phase transitions through atomic migration when triggered by various stimuli, such as strain, doping, and annealing. However, since atomically thin 2D materials are easily damaged and evaporated from these strategies, studies on the crystal structure and composition of transformed 2D phases are limited. Here, the phase and composition change behavior of laser-irradiated molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe2) in various stacked geometry are investigated, and the stable laser-induced phase patterning in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN)-encapsulated MoTe2 is demonstrated. When air-exposed or single-side passivated 2H-MoTe2 are irradiated by a laser, MoTe2 is transformed into Te or Mo3Te4 due to the highly accumulated heat and atomic evaporation. Conversely, hBN-encapsulated 2H-MoTe2 transformed into a 1T′ phase without evaporation or structural degradation, enabling stable phase transitions in desired regions. The laser-induced phase transition shows layer number dependence; thinner MoTe2 has a higher phase transition temperature. From the stable phase patterning method, the low contact resistivity of 1.13 kΩ µm in 2H-MoTe2 field-effect transistors with 1T′ contacts from the seamless heterophase junction geometry is achieved. This study paves an effective way to fabricate monolithic 2D electronic devices with laterally stitched phases and provides insights into phase and compositional changes in 2D materials.  相似文献

Advancing thermoelectric n‐type Mg3Sb2 alloys requires both high carrier concentration offered by effective doping and high carrier mobility enabled by large grains. Existing research usually involves chalcogen doping on the anion sites, and the resultant carrier concentration reaches ≈3 × 1019 cm?3 or below. This is much lower than the optimum theoretically predicted, which suggets that further improvements will be possible once a highly efficient dopant is found. Yttrium, a trivalent dopant, is shown to enable carrier concentrations up to and above ≈1 × 1020 cm?3 when it is doped on the cation site. Such carrier concentration allows for in‐depth understand of the electronic transport properties over a broad range of carrier concentrations, based on a single parabolic band approximation. As well as reasonably high carrier mobility in coarse‐grain materials sintered by hot deforming and fusing of large pieces of ingots synthesized by melting, higher thermoelectric performance than earlier experimentally reported for n‐type Mg3Sb2 is found. In particular, the thermoelectric figure of merit, zT, is even higher than that of any known n‐type thermoelectric, including Bi2Te3 alloys, within 300–500 K. This might pave the way for Mg3Sb2 alloys to become a realistic material for n‐type thermoelectrics for sustainable applications.  相似文献

Van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures have received intense attention for their efficient stacking methodology with 2D nanomaterials in vertical dimension. However, it is still a challenge to scale down the lateral size of vdW heterostructures to the nanometer and make proper contacts to achieve optimized performances. Here, a carbon‐nanotube‐confined vertical heterostructure (CCVH) is employed to address this challenge, in which 2D semiconductors are asymmetrically sandwiched by an individual metallic single‐walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) and a metal electrode. By using WSe2 and MoS2, the CCVH can be made into p‐type and n‐type field effect transistors with high on/off ratios even when the channel length is 3.3 nm. A complementary inverter was further built with them, indicating their potential in logic circuits with a high integration level. Furthermore, the Fermi level of SWCNTs can be efficiently modulated by the gate voltage, making it competent for both electron and hole injection in the CCVHs. This unique property is shown by the transition of WSe2 CCVH from unipolar to bipolar, and the transition of WSe2/MoS2 from p–n junction to n–n junction under proper source–drain biases and gate voltages. Therefore, the CCVH, as a member of 1D/2D mixed heterostructures, shows great potentials in future nanoelectronics and nano‐optoelectronics.  相似文献

Monolayer MoTe2, with the narrowest direct bandgap of ≈1.1 eV among Mo‐ and W‐based transition metal dichalcogenides, has attracted increasing attention as a promising candidate for applications in novel near‐infrared electronics and optoelectronics. Realizing 2D lateral growth is an essential prerequisite for uniform thickness and property control over the large scale, while it is not successful yet. Here, layer‐by‐layer growth of 2 in. wafer‐scale continuous monolayer 2H‐MoTe2 films on inert SiO2 dielectrics by molecular beam epitaxy is reported. A single‐step Mo‐flux controlled nucleation and growth process is developed to suppress island growth. Atomically flat 2H‐MoTe2 with 100% monolayer coverage is successfully grown on inert 2 in. SiO2/Si wafer, which exhibits highly uniform in‐plane structural continuity and excellent phonon‐limited carrier transport behavior. The dynamics‐controlled growth recipe is also extended to fabricate continuous monolayer 2H‐MoTe2 on atomic‐layer‐deposited Al2O3 dielectric. With the breakthrough in growth of wafer‐scale continuous 2H‐MoTe2 monolayers on device compatible dielectrics, batch fabrication of high‐mobility monolayer 2H‐MoTe2 field‐effect transistors and the three‐level integration of vertically stacked monolayer 2H‐MoTe2 transistor arrays for 3D circuitry are successfully demonstrated. This work provides novel insights into the scalable synthesis of monolayer 2H‐MoTe2 films on universal substrates and paves the way for the ultimate miniaturization of electronics.  相似文献

The major challenges faced by candidate electrode materials in lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) include their low electronic and ionic conductivities. 2D van der Waals materials with good electronic conductivity and weak interlayer interaction have been intensively studied in the electrochemical processes involving ion migrations. In particular, molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe2) has emerged as a new material for energy storage applications. Though 2H‐MoTe2 with hexagonal semiconducting phase is expected to facilitate more efficient ion insertion/deinsertion than the monoclinic semi‐metallic phase, its application as an anode in LIB has been elusive. Here, 2H‐MoTe2, prepared by a solid‐state synthesis route, has been employed as an efficient anode with remarkable Li+ storage capacity. The as‐prepared 2H‐MoTe2 electrodes exhibit an initial specific capacity of 432 mAh g?1 and retain a high reversible specific capacity of 291 mAh g?1 after 260 cycles at 1.0 A g?1. Further, a full‐cell prototype is demonstrated by using 2H‐MoTe2 anode with lithium cobalt oxide cathode, showing a high energy density of 454 Wh kg?1 (based on the MoTe2 mass) and capacity retention of 80% over 100 cycles. Synchrotron‐based in situ X‐ray absorption near‐edge structures have revealed the unique lithium reaction pathway and storage mechanism, which is supported by density functional theory based calculations.  相似文献

Migration of dislocations not only determines the durability of large‐scale nanoelectronic and opto‐electronic devices based on polycrystalline 2D transition‐metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), but also plays an important role in enhancing the performance of novel memristors. However, a fundamental question of the migration dependence on the electronic effects, which are inevitable in practical field‐effect transistors based on 2D TMDCs, and its interplay with different dislocations, remains unexplored. Here, taking WS2 as an example, first‐principle calculations are used to show that the electronic contributions arising from defect states can greatly influence the migration barriers of dislocations. The barrier height can be reduced by as much as 50%, which is mainly attributed to the change in electronic occupation and the band energy of defect levels controlled by electronic chemical potential (Fermi level). The reduced barriers in turn lead to significantly enhanced migration, and thus the plasticity. Since defect levels from dislocations locate deep inside the bandgap, the doping‐induced tuning of barrier height can be achieved at relatively low doping concentration through either chemical doping or electrode gating. The effective electromechanical coupling in 2D TMDCs can provide new opportunities in material engineering for various potential applications.  相似文献

Organic semiconductors (OSCs) have been widely studied due to their merits such as mechanical flexibility, solution processability, and large‐area fabrication. However, OSC devices still have to overcome contact resistance issues for better performances. Because of the Schottky contact at the metal–OSC interfaces, a non‐ideal transfer curve feature often appears in the low‐drain voltage region. To improve the contact properties of OSCs, there have been several methods reported, including interface treatment by self‐assembled monolayers and introducing charge injection layers. Here, a selective contact doping of 2,3,5,6‐tetrafluoro‐7,7,8,8‐tetracyanoquinodimethane (F4‐TCNQ) by solid‐state diffusion in poly(2,5‐bis(3‐hexadecylthiophen‐2‐yl)thieno[3,2‐b]thiophene) (PBTTT) to enhance carrier injection in bottom‐gate PBTTT organic field‐effect transistors (OFETs) is demonstrated. Furthermore, the effect of post‐doping treatment on diffusion of F4‐TCNQ molecules in order to improve the device stability is investigated. In addition, the application of the doping technique to the low‐voltage operation of PBTTT OFETs with high‐k gate dielectrics demonstrated a potential for designing scalable and low‐power organic devices by utilizing doping of conjugated polymers.  相似文献
