Abstrakt: Defects in solids are unavoidable and can create complex electronic states that can significantly influence the electrical and optical properties of semiconductors. With the rapid progress in the integration of 2D semiconductors in practical devices, it is imperative to understand and characterize the influence of defects in this class of materials. Here, we examine the electrical response of defect filling and emission using deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) and reveal defect states and their hybridization in a monolayer MOCVD-grown material deposited on CMOS-compatible substrates. Supported by aberration-corrected STEM imaging and theoretical calculations, we find that neighboring sulfur vacancy pairs introduce additional shallow trap states via hybridization of individual vacancy levels. Even though such vacancy pairs only represent ~10% of the total defect concentration, they can have a substantial influence on the off currents and switching slopes of field-effect transistors based on 2D semiconductors. Our technique, which can quantify the energy states of different defects and their interactions, allows rapid and nondestructive electrical characterization of defect states important for the defect engineering of 2D semiconductors.
