摘要
Low carrier mobility and high electrical contact resistance are two major obstacles prohibiting explorations of quantum transport in TMDCs. Here, we demonstrate an effective method to establish low-temperature Ohmic contacts in boron nitride encapsulated TMDC devices based on selective etching and conventional electron-beam evaporation of metal electrodes. This method works for most extensively studied TMDCs in recent years, including MoS2, MoSe2, WSe2, WS2, and 2H-MoTe2. Low electrical contact resistance is achieved at 2 K. All of the few-layerTMDCdevices studied show excellent performance with remarkably improved field-effect mobilities ranging from 2300 to 16 000 cm 2 V-1 s(-1), as verified by the high carrier mobilities extracted from Hall effect measurements. Moreover, both high-mobility n-type and p-typeTMDCchannels can be realized by simply using appropriate contact metals. Prominent Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations have been observed and investigated in these high-quality TMDC devices.
