This work presents a systematic study toward the design and first demonstration of high-performance n-type monolayer tungsten diselenide (WSe2) field effect transistors (FET) by selecting contact metal based on understanding physics between WSe2. Device measurements supported ab initio density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicate that d-orbitals play key role in forming low resistance ohmic contacts with On basis this understanding, indium (In) leads to small WSe2 consequently,...
Modern electronics rely on semiconductors such as silicon. Researchers show how a new class of semiconductors---monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides---can be optimized to improve device performance.
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), belonging to the class of two-dimensional (2D) layered materials, have instigated a lot interest in diverse application fields due their unique electrical, mechanical, magnetic, and optical properties.
