Antimony-Platinum Modulated Contact Enabling Majority Carrier Polarity Selection on a Monolayer Tungsten Diselenide Channel.

We develop a novel metal contact approach using an antimony (Sb)-platinum (Pt) bilayer to mitigate Fermi-level pinning in 2D transition metal dichalcogenide channels. This strategy allows for control over the transport polarity in monolayer WSe devices. By adjustment of the Sb interfacial layer thickness from 10 to 30 nm, the effective work function of the contact/WSe interface can be tuned from 4.
