Schottky barrier field-effect transistors (SBFETs) based on few and mono layer phosphorene are simulated by the non-equilibrium Greens function formalism. It is shown that scaling down the gate oxide thickness results in pronounced ambipolar I-V characteristics and significant increase of the minimal leakage current. The problem of leakage is especially severe when the gate insulator is thin and the number of layer is large, but can be effectively suppressed by reducing phosphorene to mono or bilayer. Different from two-dimensional graphene and layered dichalcogenide materials, both the ON-current of the phosphorene SBFETs and the metal-semiconductor contact resistance between metal and phosphorene strongly depend on the transport crystalline direction.

In this article, a novel two-path model is proposed to quantitatively explain sub-threshold characteristics of back-gated Schottky barrier FETs (SB-FETs) from 2D channel materials. The model integrates the conventional model for SB-FETs with the phen
omenon of contact gating - an effect that significantly affects the carrier injection from the source electrode in back-gated field effect transistors. The two-path model is validated by a careful comparison with experimental characteristics obtained from a large number of back-gated WSe2 devices with various channel thicknesses. Our findings are believed to be of critical importance for the quantitative analysis of many three-terminal devices with ultrathin body channels.
The observed performances of carbon nanotube field effect transistors are examined using first-principles quantum transport calculations. We focus on the nature and role of the electrical contact of Au and Pd electrodes to open-ended semiconducting n
anotubes, allowing the chemical contact at the surface to fully develop through large-scale relaxation of the contacting atomic configuration. We present the first direct numerical evidence of Pd contacts exhibiting perfect transparency for hole injection as opposed to that of Au contacts. Their respective Schottky barrier heights, on the other hand, turn out to be fairly similar for realistic contact models. These findings are in general agreement with experimental data reported to date, and show that a Schottky contact is not merely a passive ohmic contact but actively influences the device I-V behavior.
We predict it is possible to achieve high-efficiency room-temperature spin injection from a mag- netic metal into InAs-based semiconductors using an engineered Schottky barrier based on an InAs/AlSb superlattice. The Schottky barrier with most metals
is negative for InAs and positive for AlSb. For such metals there exist InAs/AlSb superlattices with a conduction band edge perfectly aligned with the metals Fermi energy. The initial AlSb layer can be grown to the thickness required to produce a desired interface resistance. We show that the conductivity and spin lifetimes of such superlattices are sufficiently high to permit efficient spin injection from ferromagnetic metals.
Two key subjects stand out in the pursuit of semiconductor research: material quality and contact technology. The fledging field of atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) faces a number of challenges in both efforts. This work attem
pts to establish a connection between the two by examining the gate-dependent conductance of few-layer (1-5L) WSe2 field effect devices. Measurements and modeling of the subgap regime reveal Schottky barrier transistor behavior. We show that transmission through the contact barrier is dominated by thermionic field emission (TFE) at room temperature, despite the lack of intentional doping. The TFE process arises due to a large number of subgap impurity states, the presence of which also leads to high mobility edge carrier densities. The density of states of such impurity states is self-consistently determined to be approximately 1-2x10^13 /cm^2/eV in our devices. We demonstrate that substrate is unlikely to be a major source of the impurity states and suspect that lattice defects within the material itself are primarily responsible. Our experiments provide key information to advance the quality and understanding of TMDC materials and electrical devices.
We discuss the high-bias electrical characteristics of back-gated field-effect transistors with CVD-synthesized bilayer MoS2 channel and Ti Schottky contacts. We find that oxidized Ti contacts on MoS2 form rectifying junctions with ~0.3 to 0.5 eV Sch
ottky barrier height. To explain the rectifying output characteristics of the transistors, we propose a model based on two slightly asymmetric back-to-back Schottky barriers, where the highest current arises from image force barrier lowering at the electrically forced junction, while the reverse current is due to Schottky-barrier limited injection at the grounded junction. The device achieves a photo responsivity greater than 2.5 AW-1 under 5 mWcm-2 white-LED light. By comparing two- and four-probe measurements, we demonstrate that the hysteresis and persistent photoconductivity exhibited by the transistor are peculiarities of the MoS2 channel rather than effects of the Ti/MoS2 interface.
