Grain size and plasma doping effects on CVD-based 2D transition metal dichalcogenide

Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD)-based field effect transistors are currently being actively researched as a post-silicon solution for integrated circuits. This paper discusses two of the major challenges: grain size in polycrystalline TMD monolayer films and chemical doping to improve TMD/metal contacts. The characterization techniques and the correlation with device electrical characteristics are investigated.
