研究目的
To develop a high-performance photodetector by combining MoS2 with SOI substrate to overcome the limitations of conventional SOI photodetectors, such as low responsivity and limited spectral response, and to achieve high responsivity, detectivity, and fast response in the visible and near-infrared regions.
研究成果
The MoS2/SOI heterojunction JFET demonstrates excellent photodetection performance with high responsivity (up to 1.78×104 A/W), high detectivity (over 3×1013 Jones), and fast response times (1.44 ms). The device extends the response spectrum to the visible and near-infrared regions, overcoming limitations of conventional SOI photodetectors. It shows potential for compatibility with SOI CMOS technology and applications in imaging and optical communications, paving the way for integrating 2D materials with photonic and electronic devices.
研究不足
The response speed is limited by the carrier lifetime in the MoS2 layer, which affects recombination. The device exhibits 1/f noise due to trapping/detrapping events at interfaces, which could impact performance in low-light conditions. Optimization for integration with mainstream CMOS technology may require further development.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The device is designed as a junction field effect transistor (JFET) with a Si channel controlled by a MoS2/Si heterojunction gate. The fabrication process involves transferring MoS2 onto a SOI substrate to leverage high light absorption in MoS2 and high internal gain in the Si channel. Theoretical models include TCAD simulations for current distribution analysis.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
A SOI substrate with 145 nm buried oxide (BOX) and 100 nm top p-type silicon layer doped at 1015 cm-3 is used. Multilayer MoS2 with n-type doping is exfoliated and transferred onto the device.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
SOI substrate, TMAH solution for wet etching, Cr/Au for Schottky contacts, atomic force microscope (AFM) for thickness measurement, wavelength-tunable monochromatic light source, LED for transient response, function generator, and equipment for electrical characterization (e.g., source meters).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Mesa isolation is performed using wet etching in diluted TMAH. Source/drain contacts are deposited with Cr/Au and annealed. MoS2 is transferred onto the device. Electrical characterization is conducted in dark and under illumination, with measurements of Id-Vtg, Id-Vbg, Id-Vd curves, and photoresponse parameters such as responsivity and response time.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Data is analyzed using equations for internal gain (Gain = (Id_light - Id_dark) / (Ig_light - Ig_dark)), responsivity (R = Iph / (P * A)), detectivity (D* = R * sqrt(A / (2 * q * Id_dark))), and power law (Iph ∝ P^α). TCAD simulations are used for current distribution analysis.
