Popis: | We have fabricated carbon nanotube and MoS2 field-effect transistors with asymmetric contact forms of source–drain electrodes, from which we found the current directionality of the devices and different contact resistances under the two current directions. By designing various structures, we can conclude that the asymmetric electrical performance was caused by the difference in the effective Schottky barrier height (ΦSB) caused by the different contact forms. A detailed temperature-dependent study was used to extract and compare the ΦSB for both contact forms of CNT and MoS2 devices; we found that the ΦSB for the metal-on-semiconductor form was much lower than that of the semiconductor-on-metal form and is suitable for all p-type, n-type, or ambipolar semiconductors. This conclusion is meaningful with respect to the design and application of nanomaterial electronic devices. Additionally, using the difference in barrier height caused by the contact forms, we have also proposed and fabricated Schottky barri... |
