The 3D sample has similar response speeds to the 2D one but displays (~1.2×) higher specific capacitance than the latter due to its more PANI content under the same footprint. The 3D micro array is also helpful to enhance the mechanical strength of the PANI film against repeated electrochemical cycling. Moreover, because the 3D array is well-ordered and also its feature size (~4 μm) is comparable to the infrared wavelength, strong interaction occurs between the infrared light and the structure; consequently, the 3D sample shows much larger emissivity modulation (~0.3) than the 2D one (~0.1).","PeriodicalId":183887,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Conference on Electron Devices and Solid-State Circuits (EDSSC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125895813","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, different TiO2 amounts are incorporated into HfO2 to form Hf1-xTixO gate dielectrics to investigate its effects on the electrical properties of MoS2 transistor. It is found that enhanced carrier mobility and decreased gate leakage current can be achieved by optimizing the Ti content, i.e. with ${rm{Hf}}_{0.9}{rm{Ti}}_{0.1}O (x = 0.1)$ as the gate dielectric, the device exhibits the highest carrier mobility of 31.5 ${rm{cm}}^{2}/Vs$, which is $ 1.3times$ improvement as compared to the sample with HfO2 as gate dielectric $(24.1 {rm{cm}}^{2}/Vs)$. The main mechanism lies in that Hf1-xTixO has higher k value than HfO2 to increase the Coulomb screening effect and thus carrier mobility. However, with further increase of Ti content, e.g. ${rm{Hf}}_{0.85}{rm{Ti}}_{0.15}O (x= 0.15)$, the device exhibits larger off current and degraded subthreshold swing. This is probably attributed to Ti-related oxide traps, a decreased conduction-band offset between ${rm{Hf}}_{0.85}{rm{Ti}}_{0.15}{rm{O}}$ and MoS2, and degraded $MoS_{2}/{rm{Hf}}_{1-x}{rm{Ti}}_{x}{rm{O}}$ interface quality.","PeriodicalId":183887,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE International Conference on Electron Devices and Solid-State Circuits (EDSSC)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125953241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
