Influence of vacuum thermal annealing and air exposure on the performance of single-layer MoS2devices

Two-dimensional semiconducting materials such as MoS2have gained significant attention for potential applications in electronic components due to their reduced dimensionality and exceptional electrical and optoelectronic properties. However, when reporting the performance of such 2D-based devices, o...

Air exposure has a non-negligible impact on the electronic performance and vacuum thermal annealing is an established method to decrease the effects of adsorbates.

In this work, we study the changes in the electrical and optoelectronic properties of single-layer MoS2-based devices at air exposure after thermal annealing treatment. Measurements are carried out in anin-situvacuum thermal annealing system, enabling the recording of electrical performance degradation over time. Moreover, this work shows how hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) capping improves device performance, both in vacuum and after venting, as well as stability, by decreasing the degradation speed by around six times. The results suggest that vacuum thermal annealing and hBN capping are methods to mitigate the effects of air environment on these devices.This work was funded by the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program (grant agreement n degrees 755655, ERC-StG 2017 project 2D-TOPSENSE), and the Ministry of Science and Innovation (Spain) through the projects PID2020-115566RB-I00 and TED2021-132267B-I00, and CEX2018-000805-M-19-2, from which P B acknowledges financial support, ref.
