Abstract:
We report the fabrication and device characteristics of exfoliated, few-layer, dual-gated ReS2 field effect transistors (FETs). The ReS2 FETs display n-type behavior with a room temperature Ion/I(off) of 10(5). Many devices were studied with a maximum intrinsic mobility of 12 cm(2) · V(-1) · s(-1) at room temperature and 26 cm(2) · V(-1) · s(-1) at 77 K. The Cr/Au-ReS2 contact resistance determined using the transfer length method is gate-bias dependent and ranges from 175 kΩ · μm to 5 kΩ · μm, and shows an exponential dependence on back-gate voltage indicating Schottky barriers at the source and drain contacts. Dual-gated ReS2 FETs demonstrate current saturation, voltage gain, and a subthreshold swing of 148 mV/decade.

MOSFET: Enhancement Mode
In their basic form, enhancement-mode MOSFETs are typically non-conductive when the gate-source voltage (Vgs) is zero. This default 'off' state means no...
MOSFET: Depletion Mode
The primary characteristic of depletion-mode MOSFETs is their ability to conduct current between the drain and source terminals without gate bias. This inherent conductivity...
Characteristics of JFET
The core of a JFET's operation is controlling drain current by modulating the gate-source voltage. When the drain and gate voltage are set to zero, the JFET exhibits no net current flow, representing a state of equilibrium. The drain current increases linearly as the...
