Long-Term Stability and Reliability of Black Phosphorus Field-Effect Transistors
2016
Black phosphorus has been recently suggested as a very promising material for use in 2D field-effect transistors. However, due to its poor stability under ambient conditions, this material has not yet received as much attention as for instance MoS2. We show that the recently demonstrated Al2O3 encapsulation leads to highly stable devices. In particular, we report our long-term study on highly stable black phosphorus field-effect transistors, which show stable device characteristics for at least eight months. This high stability allows us to perform a detailed analysis of their reliability with respect to hysteresis as well as the arguably most important reliability issue in silicon technologies, the bias-temperature instability. We find that the hysteresis in these transistors depends strongly on the sweep rate and temperature. Moreover, the hysteresis dynamics in our devices are reproducible over a long time, which underlines their high reliability. Also, by using detailed physical models for oxide traps...
