The inferior electrical contact to two-dimensional (2D) materials is a critical challenge for their application in post-silicon very large-scale integrated circuits. Electrical contacts were generally related to their resistive effect, quantified as contact resistance. With a systematic investigation, this work demonstrates a capacitive metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) field-effect at the electrical contacts to 2D materials: the field-effect depletes or accumulates charge carriers, redistributes the voltage potential, and give rise to abnormal current saturation and nonlinearity. On the one hand, the current saturation hinders the devices driving ability, which can be eliminated with carefully engineered contact configurations. On the other hand, by introducing the nonlinearity to monolithic analog artificial neural network circuits, the circuits perception ability can be significantly enhanced, as evidenced using a COVID-19 critical illness prediction model. This work provides a comprehension of the field-effect at the electrical contacts to 2D materials, which is fundamental to the design, simulation, and fabrication of electronics based on 2D material.

With many fantastic properties, memristive devices have been proposed as top candidate for next-generation memory and neuromorphic computing chips. Significant research progresses have been made in improving performance of individual memristive devic es and in demonstrating functional applications based on small-scale memristive crossbar arrays. However, practical deployment of large-scale traditional metal oxides based memristive crossbar array has been challenging due to several issues, such as high-power consumption, poor device reliability, low integration density and so on. To solve these issues, new materials that possess superior properties are required. Two-dimensional (2D) layered materials exhibit many unique physical properties and show great promise in solving these challenges, further providing new opportunities to implement practical applications in neuromorphic computing. Here, recent research progress on 2D layered materials based memristive device applications is reviewed. We provide an overview of the progresses and challenges on how 2D layered materials are used to solve the issues of conventional memristive devices and to realize more complex functionalities in neuromorphic computing. Besides, we also provide an outlook on exploitation of unique properties of 2D layered materials and van der Waals heterostructures for developing new types of memristive devices and artificial neural mircrocircuits.
Electrical contact resistance to two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors such as monolayer MoS_{2} is a key bottleneck in scaling the 2D field effect transistors (FETs). The 2D semiconductor in contact with three-dimensional metal creates unique current crowding that leads to increased contact resistance. We developed a model to separate the contribution of the current crowding from the intrinsic contact resistivity. We show that current crowding can be alleviated by doping and contact patterning. Using Landauer-Buttiker formalism, we show that van der Waals (vdW) gap at the interface will ultimately limit the electrical contact resistance. We compare our models with experimental data for doped and undoped MoS_{2} FETs. Even with heavy charge-transfer doping of > 2x10^{13} cm^{-2}, we show that the state-of-the-art contact resistance is 100 times larger than the ballistic limit. Our study highlights the need to develop efficient interface to achieve contact resistance of < 10 {Omega}.{mu}m, which will be ideal for extremely scaled devices.

Metal/two-dimensional carbon junctions are characterized by using a nanoprobe in an ultrahigh vacuum environment. Significant differences were found in bias voltage (V) dependence of differential conductance (dI/dV) between edge- and side-contact; th e former exhibits a clear linear relationship (i.e., dI/dV propto V), whereas the latter is characterized by a nonlinear dependence, dI/dV propto V3/2. Theoretical calculations confirm the experimental results, which are due to the robust two-dimensional nature of the carbon materials under study. Our work demonstrates the importance of contact geometry in graphene-based electronic devices.
Modulation-doped AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructures are utilized extensively in the study of quantum transport in nanostructures, but charge fluctuations associated with remote ionized dopants often produce deleterious effects. Electric field-induced carri er systems offer an attractive alternative if certain challenges can be overcome. We demonstrate a field-effect transistor in which the active channel is locally devoid of modulation-doping, but silicon dopant atoms are retained in the ohmic contact region to facilitate reliable low-resistance contacts. A high quality two-dimensional electron gas is induced by a field-effect and is tunable over a wide range of density. Device design, fabrication, and low temperature (T= 0.3K) transport data are reported.

Two-dimensional MoS2 has emerged as promising material for nanoelectronics and spintronics due to its exotic properties. However, high contact resistance at metal semiconductor MoS2 interface still remains an open issue. Here, we report electronic pr operties of field effect transistor devices using monolayer MoS2 channels and permalloy (Py) as ferromagnetic (FM) metal contacts. Monolayer MoS2 channels were directly grown on SiO2/Si substrate via chemical vapor deposition technique. The increase in current with back gate voltage shows the tunability of FET characteristics. The Schottky barrier height (SBH) estimated for Py/MoS2 contacts is found to be +28.8 meV (zero-bias), which is the smallest value reported so-far for any direct metal (magnetic or non-magnetic)/monolayer MoS2 contact. With the application of gate voltage (+10 V), SBH shows a drastic reduction down to a value of -6.8 meV. The negative SBH reveals ohmic behavior of Py/MoS2 contacts. Low SBH with controlled ohmic nature of FM contacts is a primary requirement for MoS2 based spintronics and therefore using directly grown MoS2 channels in the present study can pave a path towards high performance devices for large scale applications.
