RESUMO
Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), as flexible and stretchable materials, have attracted considerable attention in the field of novel flexible electronics due to their excellent mechanical, optical, and electronic properties. Among the various TMD materials, atomically thin MoS2has become the most widely used material due to its advantageous properties, such as its adjustable bandgap, excellent performance, and ease of preparation. In this work, we demonstrated the practicality of a stacked wafer-scale two-layer MoS2film obtained by transferring multiple single-layer films grown using chemical vapor deposition. The MoS2field-effect transistor cell had a top-gated device structure with a (PI) film as the substrate, which exhibited a high on/off ratio (108), large average mobility (â¼8.56 cm2V-1s-1), and exceptional uniformity. Furthermore, a range of flexible integrated logic devices, including inverters, NOR gates, and NAND gates, were successfully implemented via traditional lithography. These results highlight the immense potential of TMD materials, particularly MoS2, in enabling advanced flexible electronic and optoelectronic devices, which pave the way for transformative applications in future-generation electronics.
RESUMO
Two-dimentional semiconductors have shown potential applications in multi-bridge channel field-effect transistors (MBC-FETs) and complementary field-effect transistors (C-FETs) due to their atomic thickness, stackability, and excellent electrical properties. However, the exploration of MBC-FET and C-FET based on large-scale 2D semiconductors is still lacking. Here, based on a reliable vertical stacking of wafer-scale 2D semiconductors, large-scale MBC-FETs and C-FETs using n-type MoS2 and p-type MoTe2 are successfully fabricated. The drive current of an MBC-FET with two layers of MoS2 channel (20 µm/10 µm) is up to 60 µA under 1 V bias. Compared with the single-gate MoS2 FET, the carrier mobility of MBC-FET is 2.3 times higher and the sub-threshold swing is 70% smaller. Furthermore, NAND and NOR logic circuits are also constructed based on two vertically stacked MoS2 channels. Then, C-FET arrays are fabricated by 3D integrating n-type MoS2 FET and p-type MoTe2 FET, which exhibit a voltage gain of 7 V/V when VDD = 4 V. In addition, this C-FET device can directly convert light signals to an electrical digital signal within a single device. The demonstration of MBC-FET and C-FET based on large-scale 2D semiconductors will promote the application of 2D semiconductors in next-generation circuits.
RESUMO
2D semiconductors, such as molybdenum disulfide (MoS2 ), have attracted tremendous attention in constructing advanced monolithic integrated circuits (ICs) for future flexible and energy-efficient electronics. However, the development of large-scale ICs based on 2D materials is still in its early stage, mainly due to the non-uniformity of the individual devices and little investigation of device and circuit-level optimization. Herein, a 4-inch high-quality monolayer MoS2 film is successfully synthesized, which is then used to fabricate top-gated (TG) MoS2 field-effect transistors with wafer-scale uniformity. Some basic circuits such as static random access memory and ring oscillators are examined. A pass-transistor logic configuration based on pseudo-NMOS is then employed to design more complex MoS2 logic circuits, which are successfully fabricated with proper logic functions tested. These preliminary integration efforts show the promising potential of wafer-scale 2D semiconductors for application in complex ICs.
RESUMO
Pristine monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) demonstrates predominant and persistent n-type semiconducting polarity due to the natural sulfur vacancy, which hinders its electronic and optoelectronic applications in the rich bipolarity area of semiconductors. Current doping strategies in single-layer MoS2 are either too mild to reverse the heavily n-doped polarity or too volatile to create a robust electronic device meeting the requirements of both a long lifetime and compatibility for mass production. Herein, we demonstrate that MoS2 can be transferred onto polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), one of the most electronegative substrates. After transfer, the MoS2 photoluminescence exhibits an obvious blueshift from 1.83 to 1.89 eV and a prolonged lifetime, from 0.13 to 3.19 ns. The Fermi level of MoS2 experiences a remarkable 510 meV decrease, transforming its electronic structure into that of a hole-rich p-type semiconductor. Our work reveals a strong p-doping effect and charge transfer between MoS2 and PTFE, shedding light on a new nonvolatile strategy to fabricate p-type MoS2 devices.
