  • Effects of Metal Contacts and Doping for High
    TW-P061 Effects of metal contacts and doping for high-performance field-effect transistor based on tungsten diselenide (WSe2) Seo-Hyeon Jo and Jin-Hong Park School of Electronics and Electrical Engineering, Sungkyunkwan University, Suwon 440-746, Korea Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) with two-dimensional layered structure, such as molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and tungsten diselenide (WSe2), are considered attractive materials for future semiconductor devices due to its relatively superior electrical, optical, and mechanical properties. Their excellent scalability down to a monolayer based on the van der Waals layered structure without surface dangling bonds makes semiconductor devices based on TMD free from short channel effect. In comparison to the widely studied transistor based on MoS2, researchs focusing on WSe2 transistor are still limited. WSe2 is more resistant to oxidation in humid ambient condition and relatively air-stable than sulphides such as MoS2. These properties of WSe2 provide potential to fabricate high-performance filed-effect transistor if outstanding electronic characteristics can be achieved by suitable metal contacts and doping phenomenon. Here, we demonstrate the effect of two different metal contacts (titanium and platinum) in field-effect transistor based on WSe2, which regulate electronic characteristics of device by controlling the effective barreier height of the metal-semiconductor junction. Electronic properties of WSe2 transistor were systematically investigated through monitoring of threshold voltage shift, carrier concentration difference, on-current ratio, and field-effect mobility ratio with two different metal contacts. Additionally, performance of transistor based on WSe2 is further enhanced through reliable and controllable n-type doping method of WSe2 by triphenylphosphine (PPh3), which activates the doping phenomenon by thermal annealing process and adjust the doping level by controlling the doping concentration of PPh3.

When assessing the feasibility of these predictions, it is critical to quantify uncertainties associated with the models, inputs to the models, and data used to calibrate the models. The synthesis of statistical and mathematical techniques, which can be used to quantify input and response uncertainties for simulation codes that can take hours to days to run, comprises the evolving field of uncertainty quantification. The use of data, to improve the predictive accuracy of models, is central to uncertainty quantification so we will begin by providing an overview of how Bayesian techniques can be used to construct distributions for Summer 2015 Roundtable Agenda 1 model inputs.

This nomination process is strictly confidential and under no circumstances should it be discussed or communicated beyond those making the nomination and the Honorary Degrees Committee. If confidentiality is found to have been broken the nomination will be withdrawn with immediate effect. 2. The University confers honorary degrees on persons of distinction who have made or are likely to make a major contribution to the work of the University or have earned distinction for activities more widely in the community, i.e. education, the professions, business, trade unions, culture, creative work or public service. 3. School Boards are asked to put forward nominations for Honorary Degrees to each meeting of the Honorary Degrees Committee. Nominations may come forward from departmental level, or may be forwarded by individual members of staff to the Executive Dean. Collected nominations from within the School should be considered by a nominated group of the School Board, chaired by the Executive Dean, and where accepted forwarded to the Secretary of the Honorary Degrees Committee. Schools are encouraged in particular to consider academic nominations and to seek nominees that reflect the work and academic direction of the School. All nominations must be held in the strictest confidence and should not be discussed with the individuals concerned nor should they be made aware of their nomination until approval has been granted by the Honorary Degrees Committee on behalf of Senate.
