RESUMEN
This study investigates vertically stacked CVD grown ReS2/MoS2 unipolar heterostructure device as Field Effect Transistor (FET) device wherein ReS2 on top acts as drain and MoS2 at bottom acts as source. The electrical measurements of ReS2/MoS2 FET device were carried out and variation in Ids (drain current) Vs Vds (drain voltage) for different Vgs (gate voltage) revealing the n-type device characteristics. Furthermore, the threshold voltage was calculated at the gate bias voltage corresponding to maximum transconductance (gm) value which is ~ 12 V. The mobility of the proposed ReS2/MoS2 heterojunction FET device was calculated as 60.97 cm2 V-1 s-1. The band structure of the fabricated vDW heterostructure was extracted utilizing ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy and the UV-visible spectroscopy revealing the formation of 2D electron gas (2DEG) at the ReS2/MoS2 interface which explains the high carrier mobility of the fabricated FET. The field effect behavior is studied by the modulation of the barrier height across heterojunction and detailed explanation is presented in terms of the charge transport across the heterojunction.
RESUMEN
The remarkable properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials have led to significant advancements in photodetection and optoelectronics research. Currently, there are many successful methods that are employed to improve the responsivity of photodetectors, but the limited spectral range of the device remains a limitation. This work demonstrates the development of a mixed-dimensional (2D/0D) hybrid photodetector device fabricated using chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-grown monolayer ReS2 and solution-processed MoS2 quantum dots (QDs). The mixed dimensionality of 2D (ReS2) and zero-dimensional (0D) MoS2 QDs assist in improving the spectral range of the device [ultraviolet (360 nm) to near-infrared (780 nm)]. Further, due to the work function difference between ReS2 and MoS2 QDs, the built-in electric field across the mixed-dimensional interface promotes effective charge separation and migration, resulting in improved responsivities of the device. The calculated responsivities of the fabricated photodetector are 5.4 × 102, 3.3 × 102, and 2.6 × 102 A/W when subjected to visible, UV, and NIR light illumination, which is remarkable when compared to the existing reports on broadband photodetection. The mixed-dimensionality heterostructure coupled with contact engineering paves the way for highly responsive broadband photodetectors for potential applications in security, healthcare, etc.
RESUMEN
This study demonstrates the effect of nitrogen doping on the surface state densities (Nss) of monolayer MoS2 and its effect on the responsivity and the response time of the photodetector. Our experimental results shows that by doping monolayer MoS2 by nitrogen, the surface state (Nss) increases thereby increasing responsivity. The mathematical model included in the paper supports the relation of photocurrent gain and its dependency on trap level which states that the increasing the trap density increases the photocurrent gain and the same is observed experimentally. The experimental results at room temperature revealed that nitrogen doped MoS2 have a high NSS of 1.63 X 1013 states/m2/eV compared to undoped MoS2 of 4.2 x 1012 states/m2/eV. The increase in Nss in turn is the cause for rise in trap states which eventually increases the value of photo responsivity from 65.12 A/W (undoped MoS2) to 606.3 A/W (nitrogen doped MoS2). The response time calculated for undoped MoS2 was 0.85 sec and for doped MoS2 was 0.35 sec. Finally, to verify the dependence of surface states on the responsivity, the surface states were varied by varying temperature and it was observed that upon increment in temperature, the surface states decreases which causes the responsivity values also to decrease.
