Abstract
Multilayer MoS2 has been gaining interest as a new semiconducting material for flexible displays, memory devices, chemical/biosensors, and photodetectors. However, conventional multilayer MoS2 devices have exhibited limited performances due to the Schottky barrier and defects. Here, we demonstrate poly(diketopyrrolopyrrole-terthiophene) (PDPP3T) doping effects in multilayer MoS2, which results in improved electrical characteristics (∼4.6× higher on-current compared to the baseline and a high current on/off ratio of 106). Synchrotron-based study using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and grazing incidence wide-angle X-ray diffraction provides mechanisms that align the edge-on crystallites (97.5%) of the PDPP3T as well as a larger interaction with MoS2 that leads to dipole and charge transfer effects (at annealing temperature of 300 °C), which support the observed enhancement of the electrical characteristics. Furthermore, we demonstrate a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor inverter that uses a p-type MoSe2 and a PDPP3T-doped MoS2 as charging and discharging channels, respectively.
