In recent years, a lot of scientific research effort has been put forth for the investigation of Transition Metal Dichalcogenides (TMDC) and other Two Dimensional (2D) materials like Graphene, Boron Nitride. Theoretical investigation on the physical aspects of these materials has revealed a whole new range of exciting applications due to wide tunability in electronic and optoelectronic properties. Besides theoretical exploration, these materials have been successfully implemented in electronic and optoelectronic devices with promising results. In this work, we have investigated the effect of monolayer TMDC materials and monolayer TMDC alloys on the performance of a promising electronic device that can achieve steep switching characteristics- thin Tunneling Filed Effect Transistor or thin-TFET, using self-consistent determination of conduction, valance band levels in the device and a simplified model of interlayer tunneling current that treats scattering semi-classically and incorporates the energy broadening effect using a Gaussian approximation. We have also explored the effect of gate dielectric material variation, interlayer material variation on the performance of the device.

Two-dimensional (2D) semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are good candidates for high-performance flexible electronics. However, most demonstrations of such flexible field-effect transistors (FETs) to date have been on the micron s cale, not benefitting from the short-channel advantages of 2D-TMDs. Here, we demonstrate flexible monolayer MoS2 FETs with the shortest channels reported to date (down to 50 nm) and remarkably high on-current (up to 470 uA/um at 1 V drain-to-source voltage) which is comparable to flexible graphene or crystalline silicon FETs. This is achieved using a new transfer method wherein contacts are initially patterned on the rigid TMD growth substrate with nanoscale lithography, then coated with a polyimide (PI) film which becomes the flexible substrate after release, with the contacts and TMD. We also apply this transfer process to other TMDs, reporting the first flexible FETs with MoSe2 and record on-current for flexible WSe2 FETs. These achievements push 2D semiconductors closer to a technology for low-power and high-performance flexible electronics.

Starting from graphene, 2D layered materials family has been recently set up more than 100 different materials with variety of different class of materials such as semiconductors, metals, semimetals, superconductors. Among these materials, 2D semicon ductors have found especial importance in the state of the art device applications compared to that of the current conventional devices such as (which material based for example Si based) field effect transistors (FETs) and photodetectors during the last two decades. This high potential in solid state devices is mostly revealed by the transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) semiconductor materials such as MoS2 , WS2 , MoSe2 and WSe2 . Therefore, many different methods and approaches have been developed to grow or obtain so far in order to make use them in solid state devices, which is a great challenge in large area applications. Although there are intensively studied methods such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD), mechanical exfoliation, atomic layer deposition, it is sputtering getting attention day by day due to the simplicity of the growth method together with its reliability, large area growth possibility and repeatability. In this review article, we provide benefits and disadvantages of all the growth methods when growing TMDC materials, then focusing on the sputtering TMDC growth strategies performed. In addition, TMDCs for the FETs and photodetector devices grown by RFMS have been surveyed.
Atomically thin materials such as graphene and monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) exhibit remarkable physical properties resulting from their reduced dimensionality and crystal symmetry. The family of semiconducting transition metal di chalcogenides is an especially promising platform for fundamental studies of two-dimensional (2D) systems, with potential applications in optoelectronics and valleytronics due to their direct band gap in the monolayer limit and highly efficient light-matter coupling. A crystal lattice with broken inversion symmetry combined with strong spin-orbit interactions leads to a unique combination of the spin and valley degrees of freedom. In addition, the 2D character of the monolayers and weak dielectric screening from the environment yield a significant enhancement of the Coulomb interaction. The resulting formation of bound electron-hole pairs, or excitons, dominates the optical and spin properties of the material. Here we review recent progress in our understanding of the excitonic properties in monolayer TMDs and lay out future challenges. We focus on the consequences of the strong direct and exchange Coulomb interaction, discuss exciton-light interaction and effects of other carriers and excitons on electron-hole pairs in TMDs. Finally, the impact on valley polarization is described and the tuning of the energies and polarization observed in applied electric and magnetic fields is summarized.
Strain engineering in single-layer semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides aims to tune their bandgap energy and to modify their optoelectronic properties by the application of external strain. In this paper we study transition metal dichalco genides monolayers deposited on polymeric substrates under the application of biaxial strain, both tensile and compressive. We can control the amount of biaxial strain applied by letting the substrate thermally expand or compress by changing the substrate temperature. After modelling the substrate-dependent strain transfer process with a finite elements simulation, we performed micro-differential spectroscopy of four transition metal dichalcogenides monolayers (MoS2, MoSe2, WS2, WSe2) under the application of biaxial strain and measured their optical properties. For tensile strain we observe a redshift of the bandgap that reaches a value as large as 94 meV/% in the case of single-layer WS2 deposited on polypropylene. The observed bandgap shifts as a function of substrate extension/compression follow the order WS2 > WSe2 > MoS2 > MoSe2.
The environmental stability of the layered semiconductor black phosphorus (bP) remains a challenge. Passivation of the bP surface with phosphorus oxide, POx, grown by a reactive ion etch with oxygen plasma is known to improve photoluminescence effici ency of exfoliated bP flakes. We apply phosphorus oxide passivation in the fabrication of bP field effect transistors using a gate stack consisting of a POx layer grown by reactive ion etching followed by atomic layer deposition of Al2O3. We observe room temperature top-gate mobilities of 115 cm2/Vs in ambient conditions, which we attribute to the low defect density of the bP/POx interface.
