The discovery of layered materials, including transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD), gives rise to a variety of novel nanoelectronic devices, including fast switching field-effect transistors (FET), assembled heterostructures, flexible electronics, etc. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), a transition metal dichalcogenides semiconductor, is considered an auspicious candidate for the post-silicon era due to its outstanding chemical and thermal stability. We present a Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) study of a MoS2 FET device, showing direct evidence for pinch-off formation in the channel by in situ monitoring of the electrostatic potential distribution along the conducting channel of the transistor. In addition, we present a systematic comparison between a monolayer MoS2 FET and a few-layer MoS2 FET regarding gating effects, electric field distribution, depletion region, and pinch-off formation in such devices.

Abstract Objectives An avalanche of research has been carried out on two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) due to their potential applications in advanced electronics and flexible devices. To take full use of the emerging 2D TMDs materials, their in-plane/vertical heterostructures have been explored, enabling effective tuning of their physical and chemical properties. However, structural differences between the various phases impede the formation of functional heterostructures. Therefore, robust synthesis strategies for heterostructures with different phases have been explored in this study. Methods A chemical vapor deposition process has been proposed in which the key parameters like reaction sources, deposition sites, etc. have been carefully adjusted, trying to achieve simultaneous synthesis of 1T’/2H in-plane and vertical heterostructures. Results Consequently, 2D in-plane RexMo1-xS2/MoS2 and vertical ReS2/MoS2 heterostructures have been produced in different regions at the same time. Atomic-resolution Z-contrast images reveal the detailed atomic structure of the 1T’/2H interfaces. The lateral interface is found to contain Mo atoms with only 5-fold coordination with S due to the phase mismatch. Conclusion This work demonstrates a route to exploit heterostructures of different phases and opens the possibility to build more complicated 2D heterostructures using CVD.
