Abstract
- We report on the electrical characterization of synthetic, large-area MoS2 layers obtained by the sulfurization technique. The effects of dielectric encapsulation and localized defect states on the intrinsic transport properties are explored with the aid of temperature-dependent measurements. We study the effect of dielectric environment by transferring as-grown MoS2 films into different dielectrics such as SiO2, Al2O3, HfO2, and ZrO2 with increasing dielectric permittivity. Electrical data are collected on a statistically-relevant device ensemble and allow to assess device performances on a large scale assembly. Our devices show relative in-sensitiveness of mobility with respect to dielectric encapsulation. We conclude that the device behavior is strongly affected by several scattering mechanisms of different origin that can completely mask any effect related to dielectric mismatch. At low temperatures, conductivity of the devices is thermally activated, a clear footprint of the existence of a mobility edge separating extended states in the conduction band from impurity states in the band-gap.
