Black Phosphorus Based Field Effect Transistors with Simultaneously Achieved Near Ideal Subthreshold Swing and High Hole Mobility at Room Temperature.

ABSTRACT: Black phosphorus (BP) has emerged as a promising two-dimensional (2D) material for next generation transistor applications due to its superior carrier transport properties. Among other issues, achieving reduced subthreshold swing and enhanced hole mobility simultaneously remains a challenge which requires careful optimization of the BP/gate oxide interface. Here, we report the realization of high performance BP transistors integrated with HfO2 high-k gate dielectric using a low temperature CMOS process. The fabricated devices were shown to demonstrate a near ideal subthreshold swing (SS) of ~69 mV/dec and a room temperature hole mobility of exceeding >400 cm(2)/Vs. These figure-of-merits are benchmarked to be the best-of-its-kind, which outperform previously reported BP transistors realized on traditional SiO2 gate dielectric. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis further reveals the evidence of a more chemically stable BP when formed on HfO2 high-k as opposed to SiO2, which gives rise to a better interface quality that accounts for the SS and hole mobility improvement. These results unveil the potential of black phosphorus as an emerging channel material for future nanoelectronic device applications.

Complementary Black Phosphorus Tunneling Field-Effect Transistors.

Project description:Band-to-band tunneling field-effect transistors (TFETs) have emerged as promising candidates for low-power integration circuits beyond conventional metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) and have been demonstrated to overcome the thermionic limit, which results intrinsically in sub-threshold swings of at least 60 mV/dec at room temperature. Here, we demonstrate complementary TFETs based on few-layer black phosphorus, in which multiple top gates create electrostatic doping in the source and drain regions. By electrically tuning the doping types and levels in the source and drain regions, the device can be reconfigured to allow for TFET or MOSFET operation and can be tuned to be n-type or p-type. Owing to the proper choice of materials and careful engineering of device structures, record-high current densities have been achieved in 2D TFETs. Full-band atomistic quantum transport simulations of the fabricated devices agree quantitatively with the current-voltage measurements, which gives credibility to the promising simulation results of ultrascaled phosphorene TFETs. Using atomistic simulations, we project substantial improvements in the performance of the fabricated TFETs when channel thicknesses and oxide thicknesses are scaled down.

Remarkably High Hole Mobility Metal-Oxide Thin-Film Transistors.

Project description:High performance p-type thin-film transistor (p-TFT) was realized by a simple process of reactive sputtering from a tin (Sn) target under oxygen ambient, where remarkably high field-effect mobility (? FE ) of 7.6?cm2/Vs, 140?mV/dec subthreshold slope, and 3?×?104 on-current/off-current were measured. In sharp contrast, the SnO formed by direct sputtering from a SnO target showed much degraded ? FE , because of the limited low process temperature of SnO and sputtering damage. From the first principle quantum-mechanical calculation, the high hole ? FE of SnO p-TFT is due to its considerably unique merit of the small effective mass and single hole band without the heavy hole band. The high performance p-TFTs are the enabling technology for future ultra-low-power complementary-logic circuits on display and three-dimensional brain-mimicking integrated circuits.

High hole mobility in physical vapour deposition-grown tellurium-based transistors.

Project description:Carrier mobility is one of most important figures of merit for materials that can determine to a large extent the corresponding device performances. So far, extensive efforts have been devoted to the mobility improvement of two-dimensional (2D) materials regarded as promising candidates to complement the conventional semiconductors. Graphene has amazing mobility but suffers from zero bandgap. Subsequently, 2D transition-metal dichalcogenides benefit from their sizable bandgap while the mobility is limited. Recently, the 2D elemental materials such as the representative black phosphorus can combine the high mobility with moderate bandgap; however the air-stability is a challenge. Here, we report air-stable tellurium flakes and wires using the facile and scalable physical vapour deposition (PVD) method. The prototype field-effect transistors were fabricated to exhibit high hole mobility up to 1485 cm2 V-1 s-1 at room temperature and 3500 cm2 V-1 s-1 at low temperature (2 K). This work can attract numerous attentions on this new emerging 2D tellurium and open up a new way for exploring high-performance optoelectronics based on the PVD-grown p-type tellurium.

Black Phosphorus Transistors with Near Band Edge Contact Schottky Barrier.

Project description:Black phosphorus (BP) is a new class of 2D material which holds promise for next generation transistor applications owing to its intrinsically superior carrier mobility properties. Among other issues, achieving good ohmic contacts with low source-drain parasitic resistance in BP field-effect transistors (FET) remains a challenge. For the first time, we report a new contact technology that employs the use of high work function nickel (Ni) and thermal anneal to produce a metal alloy that effectively reduces the contact Schottky barrier height (ΦB) in a BP FET. When annealed at 300 °C, the Ni electrode was found to react with the underlying BP crystal and resulted in the formation of nickel-phosphide (Ni2P) alloy. This serves to de-pin the metal Fermi level close to the valence band edge and realizes a record low hole ΦB of merely ~12 meV. The ΦB at the valence band has also been shown to be thickness-dependent, wherein increasing BP multi-layers results in a smaller ΦB due to bandgap energy shrinkage. The integration of hafnium-dioxide high-k gate dielectric additionally enables a significantly improved subthreshold swing (SS ~ 200 mV/dec), surpassing previously reported BP FETs with conventional SiO2 gate dielectric (SS > 1 V/dec).

High-speed black phosphorus field-effect transistors approaching ballistic limit.

Project description:As a strong candidate for future electronics, atomically thin black phosphorus (BP) has attracted great attention in recent years because of its tunable bandgap and high carrier mobility. Here, we show that the transport properties of BP device under high electric field can be improved greatly by the interface engineering of high-quality HfLaO dielectrics and transport orientation. By designing the device channels along the lower effective mass armchair direction, a record-high drive current up to 1.2 mA/μm at 300 K and 1.6 mA/μm at 20 K can be achieved in a 100-nm back-gated BP transistor, surpassing any two-dimensional semiconductor transistors reported to date. The highest hole saturation velocity of 1.5 × 107 cm/s is also achieved at room temperature. Ballistic transport shows a record-high 36 and 79% ballistic efficiency at room temperature and 20 K, respectively, which is also further verified by theoretical simulations.

High-Mobility Hole Transport in Single-Grain PbSe Quantum Dot Superlattice Transistors.

Project description:Epitaxially-fused superlattices of colloidal quantum dots (QD epi-SLs) may exhibit electronic minibands and high-mobility charge transport, but electrical measurements of epi-SLs have been limited to large-area, polycrystalline samples in which superlattice grain boundaries and intragrain defects suppress/obscure miniband effects. Systematic measurements of charge transport in individual, highly-ordered epi-SL grains would facilitate the study of minibands in QD films. Here, we demonstrate the air-free fabrication of microscale field-effect transistors (μ-FETs) with channels consisting of single PbSe QD epi-SL grains (2-7 μm channel dimensions) and analyze charge transport in these single-grain devices. The eight devices studied show p-channel or ambipolar transport with a hole mobility as high as 3.5 cm2 V-1 s-1 at 290 K and 6.5 cm2 V-1 s-1 at 170-220 K, one order of magnitude larger than that of previous QD solids. The mobility peaks at 150-220 K, but device hysteresis at higher temperatures makes the true mobility-temperature curve uncertain and evidence for miniband transport inconclusive.

Analysing black phosphorus transistors using an analytic Schottky barrier MOSFET model.

Project description:Owing to the difficulties associated with substitutional doping of low-dimensional nanomaterials, most field-effect transistors built from carbon nanotubes, two-dimensional crystals and other low-dimensional channels are Schottky barrier MOSFETs (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors). The transmission through a Schottky barrier-MOSFET is dominated by the gate-dependent transmission through the Schottky barriers at the metal-to-channel interfaces. This makes the use of conventional transistor models highly inappropriate and has lead researchers in the past frequently to extract incorrect intrinsic properties, for example, mobility, for many novel nanomaterials. Here we propose a simple modelling approach to quantitatively describe the transfer characteristics of Schottky barrier-MOSFETs from ultra-thin body materials accurately in the device off-state. In particular, after validating the model through the analysis of a set of ultra-thin silicon field-effect transistor data, we have successfully applied our approach to extract Schottky barrier heights for electrons and holes in black phosphorus devices for a large range of body thicknesses.

Growth of Tellurium Nanobelts on h-BN for p-type Transistors with Ultrahigh Hole Mobility.

Project description:The lack of stable p-type van der Waals (vdW) semiconductors with high hole mobility severely impedes the step of low-dimensional materials entering the industrial circle. Although p-type black phosphorus (bP) and tellurium (Te) have shown promising hole mobilities, the instability under ambient conditions of bP and relatively low hole mobility of Te remain as daunting issues. Here we report the growth of high-quality Te nanobelts on atomically flat hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) for high-performance p-type field-effect transistors (FETs). Importantly, the Te-based FET exhibits an ultrahigh hole mobility up to 1370 cm2 V-1 s-1 at room temperature, that may lay the foundation for the future high-performance p-type 2D FET and metal-oxide-semiconductor (p-MOS) inverter. The vdW h-BN dielectric substrate not only provides an ultra-flat surface without dangling bonds for growth of high-quality Te nanobelts, but also reduces the scattering centers at the interface between the channel material and the dielectric layer, thus resulting in the ultrahigh hole mobility .

Room temperature high-detectivity mid-infrared photodetectors based on black arsenic phosphorus.

Project description:The mid-infrared (MIR) spectral range, pertaining to important applications, such as molecular "fingerprint" imaging, remote sensing, free space telecommunication, and optical radar, is of particular scientific interest and technological importance. However, state-of-the-art materials for MIR detection are limited by intrinsic noise and inconvenient fabrication processes, resulting in high-cost photodetectors requiring cryogenic operation. We report black arsenic phosphorus-based long-wavelength IR photodetectors, with room temperature operation up to 8.2 ?m, entering the second MIR atmospheric transmission window. Combined with a van der Waals heterojunction, room temperature-specific detectivity higher than 4.9 × 109 Jones was obtained in the 3- to 5-?m range. The photodetector works in a zero-bias photovoltaic mode, enabling fast photoresponse and low dark noise. Our van der Waals heterojunction photodetectors not only exemplify black arsenic phosphorus as a promising candidate for MIR optoelectronic applications but also pave the way for a general strategy to suppress 1/f noise in photonic devices.

High-mobility transport anisotropy and linear dichroism in few-layer black phosphorus.

Project description:Two-dimensional crystals are emerging materials for nanoelectronics. Development of the field requires candidate systems with both a high carrier mobility and, in contrast to graphene, a sufficiently large electronic bandgap. Here we present a detailed theoretical investigation of the atomic and electronic structure of few-layer black phosphorus (BP) to predict its electrical and optical properties. This system has a direct bandgap, tunable from 1.51 eV for a monolayer to 0.59 eV for a five-layer sample. We predict that the mobilities are hole-dominated, rather high and highly anisotropic. The monolayer is exceptional in having an extremely high hole mobility (of order 10,000 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1)) and anomalous elastic properties which reverse the anisotropy. Light absorption spectra indicate linear dichroism between perpendicular in-plane directions, which allows optical determination of the crystalline orientation and optical activation of the anisotropic transport properties. These results make few-layer BP a promising candidate for future electronics.
