摘要
We report reproducible p-type transport properties in nitrogen-doped ZnS nanoribbons (NRs) synthesized by applying ammonia gas as the acceptor source. Field-effect transistors fabricated from individual ZnS NRs revealed the p-type behavior of ZnS NRs and significant enhancement in p-type transport properties upon annealing in argon ambient. Annealing-induced conversion of highly insulating to p-type conducting ZnS NRs was attributed to activation of N acceptors from the passivated states of N-S-H bonding.
