Abstract
This paper reports source/drain (S/D) contact issues in monolayer and bilayer (BL) $\mathrm {MoS_{2}}$ devices through density-functional-theory (DFT) calculation and device simulation. We begin by analyzing material properties and van der Waals gaps at metal contacts of $\mathrm {MoS_{2}}$ using DFT calculation. These results are then used for device simulation, aligning closely with experimental data. For the first time, the model is extended to 3D gate-all-around (GAA) nanosheet (NS) field-effect transistors (FETs) simulation, enabling contact resistance $(R_{C})$ estimation. This work addresses key challenges by reducing computational demands compared to non-equilibrium Green function method and accurately calibrating devices with various metal contacts and gate lengths. Simulations with C-type S/D contacts achieve an $R_{C}$ of $89.6~\Omega $ -$\mu $ m in 7-channel GAA BL $\mathrm {MoS_{2}}$ NS FETs, offering an interesting study for 2D material-based devices.
期刊介绍:
The IEEE Journal of the Electron Devices Society (J-EDS) is an open-access, fully electronic scientific journal publishing papers ranging from fundamental to applied research that are scientifically rigorous and relevant to electron devices. The J-EDS publishes original and significant contributions relating to the theory, modelling, design, performance, and reliability of electron and ion integrated circuit devices and interconnects, involving insulators, metals, organic materials, micro-plasmas, semiconductors, quantum-effect structures, vacuum devices, and emerging materials with applications in bioelectronics, biomedical electronics, computation, communications, displays, microelectromechanics, imaging, micro-actuators, nanodevices, optoelectronics, photovoltaics, power IC''s, and micro-sensors. Tutorial and review papers on these subjects are, also, published. And, occasionally special issues with a collection of papers on particular areas in more depth and breadth are, also, published. J-EDS publishes all papers that are judged to be technically valid and original.
