| Popis: | Air-stable doping of transition metal dichalcogenides is of fundamental importance to enable a wide range of optoelectronic and electronic devices while exploring their basic material properties. Here we demonstrate the use of benzyl viologen (BV), which has one of the highest reduction potentials of all electron-donor organic compounds, as a surface charge transfer donor for MoS2 flakes. The n-doped samples exhibit excellent stability in both ambient air and vacuum. Notably, we obtained a high electron sheet density of ∼1.2 × 1013 cm–2, which corresponds to the degenerate doping limit for MoS2. The BV dopant molecules can be reversibly removed by immersion in toluene, providing the ability to control the carrier sheet density as well as selective removal of surface dopants on demand. By BV doping of MoS2 at the metal junctions, the contact resistances are shown to be reduced by a factor of >3. As a proof of concept, top-gated field-effect transistors were fabricated with BV-doped n+ source/drain contacts... |
