Abstract

We show that multilayered transition-metal dichalcogenides such as multilayer MoS2 present a compelling case for Thin-Film Transistors (TFTs) for large-area display technology. Through a combined structural, optical, and electronic characterization of multilayer MoS2 TFTs, supported by density-functional theory based bandstructure calculations, we show the inherently attractive properties of these materials for such applications. We find that the current modulation of such devices is high, the current saturation is robust, normally-off operation is feasible, effective field-effect mobility at RT exceeds 100 cm2/V.s, and the channel can be operated in both accumulation and inversion modes. These properties make multilayer MoS2 more feasible than single layer versions to maintain processing robustness.
