Photodetectors based on two dimensional materials have attracted growing interest. However, the sensitivity is still unsatisfactory even under high gate voltage. Here we demonstrate a MoS2 photodetector with a poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) ferroelectric layer in place of the oxide layer in a traditional field effect transistor. The dark current of the photodetector is strongly suppressed by ferroelectric polarization. A high detectivity 2.21012 Jones) and photoresponsitivity (2570 A W) detector has been achieved under ZERO gate bias at a wavelength of 635 nm. Most strikingly, the band gap of few-layer MoS2 can be tuned by the ultra-high electrostatic field from the ferroelectric polarization. With this characteristic, photoresponse wavelengths of the photodetector are extended into the near infrared (0.85-1.55m). A ferroelectrics optoelectronics hybrid structure is an effective way to achieve high performance 2D electronic optoelectronic devices.

Semiconducting monolayer of 2D material are able to concatenate multiple interesting properties into a single component. Here, by combining opto-mechanical and electronic measurements, we demonstrate the presence of a partial 2H-1T phase transition i n a suspended 2D monolayer membrane of MoS2. Electronic transport shows unexpected memristive properties in the MoS2 membrane, in the absence of any external dopants. A strong mechanical softening of the membrane is measured concurrently and may only be related to the phase 2H-1T phase transition which imposes a 3percent directional elongation of the topological 1T phase with respect to the semiconducting 2H. We note that only a few percent 2H- 1T phase switching is sufficient to observe measurable memristive effects. Our experimental results combined with First-principles total energy calculations indicate that sulfur vacancy diffusion plays a key role in the initial nucleation of the phase transition. Our study clearly shows that nanomechanics represents an ultrasensitive technique to probe the crystal phase transition in 2D materials or thin membranes. Finally, a better control of the microscopic mechanisms responsible for the observed memristive effect in MoS2 is important for the implementation of future devices.
Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) allows growing transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) over large surface areas on inexpensive substrates. In this work, we correlate the structural quality of CVD grown MoS$_2$ monolayers (MLs) on SiO$_2$/Si wafers st udied by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) with high optical quality revealed in optical emission and absorption from cryogenic to ambient temperatures. We determine a defect concentration of the order of 10$^{13}$ cm$^{-2}$ for our samples with HRTEM. To have access to the intrinsic optical quality of the MLs, we remove the MLs from the SiO$_2$ growth substrate and encapsulate them in hBN flakes with low defect density, to reduce the detrimental impact of dielectric disorder. We show optical transition linewidth of 5 meV at low temperature (T=4 K) for the free excitons in emission and absorption. This is comparable to the best ML samples obtained by mechanical exfoliation of bulk material. The CVD grown MoS$_2$ ML photoluminescence is dominated by free excitons and not defects even at low temperature. High optical quality of the samples is further confirmed by the observation of excited exciton states of the Rydberg series. We optically generate valley coherence and valley polarization in our CVD grown MoS$_2$ layers, showing the possibility for studying spin and valley physics in CVD samples of large surface area.
Two dimensional material/semiconductor heterostructures offer alternative platforms for optoelectronic devices other than conventional Schottky and p-n junction devices. Herein, we use MoS2/GaAs heterojunction as a self-driven photodetector with wide response band width from ultraviolet to visible light, which exhibits high sensitivity to the incident light of 635 nm with responsivity as 446 mA/W and detectivity as 5.9*10^13 Jones (Jones = cm Hz1/2 W-1), respectively. Employing interface design by inserting h-BN and photo-induced doping by covering Si quantum dots on the device, the responsivity is increased to 419 mA/W for incident light of 635 nm. Distinctly, attributing to the low dark current of the MoS2/h-BN/GaAs sandwich structure based on the self-driven operation condition, the detectivity shows extremely high value of 1.9*10^14 Jones for incident light of 635 nm, which is higher than all the reported values of the MoS2 based photodetectors. Further investigations reveal that the MoS2/GaAs based photodetectors have response speed with the typical rise/fall time as 17/31 {mu}s. The photodetectors are stable while sealed with polymethyl methacrylate after storage in air for one month. These results imply that monolayer MoS2/GaAs heterojunction may have great potential for practical applications as high performance self-driven photodetectors.
We study the influence of oxygen vacancies on the formation of charged 180$^circ$ domain walls in ferroelectric BaTiO$_3$ using first principles calculations. We show that it is favorable for vacancies to assemble in crystallographic planes, and that such clustering is accompanied by the formation of a charged domain wall. The domain wall has negative bound charge, which compensates the nominal positive charge of the vacancies and leads to a vanishing density of free charge at the wall. This is in contrast to the positively charged domain walls, which are nearly completely compensated by free charge from the bulk. The results thus explain the experimentally observed difference in electronic conductivity of the two types of domain walls, as well as the generic prevalence of charged domain walls in ferroelectrics. Moreover, the explicit demonstration of vacancy driven domain wall formation implies that specific charged domain wall configurations may be realized by bottom-up design for use in domain wall based information processing.
Gate-induced superconductivity at the surface of nanolayers of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) has attracted a lot of attention in recent years, thanks to the sizeable transition temperature, robustness against in-plane magneti c fields beyond the Pauli limit, and hints to a non-conventional nature of the pairing. A key information necessary to unveil its microscopic origin is the geometry of the Fermi surface hosting the Cooper pairs as a function of field-effect doping, which is dictated by the filling of the inequivalent valleys at the K/K$^{prime}$ and Q/Q$^{prime}$ points of the Brillouin Zone. Here, we achieve this by combining Density Functional Theory calculations of the bandstructure with transport measurements on ion-gated 2H-MoS$_{2}$ nanolayers. We show that, when the number of layers and the amount of strain are set to their experimental values, the Fermi level crosses the bottom of the high-energy valleys at Q/Q$^{prime}$ at doping levels where characteristic kinks in the transconductance are experimentally detected. We also develop a simple 2D model which is able to quantitatively describe the broadening of the kinks observed upon increasing temperature. We demonstrate that this combined approach can be employed to map the dependence of the Fermi surface of TMD nanolayers on field-effect doping, detect Lifshitz transitions, and provide a method to determine the amount of strain and spin-orbit splitting between sub-bands from electric transport measurements in real devices.
