Abstract

Abstract This paper presents a detailed experimental study of the electrical characteristics of back-gated few-layer MoS 2 field-effect transistors (FETs) via combined gate-to-channel capacitance and drain current measurements. Under proper measurement conditions, such measurements allow to extract the effective carrier mobility in thin-film MoS 2 FETs. This method is applied to investigate the special features of the mobility behavior in MoS 2 FETs with significant hysteresis of the transfer characteristics. It is found that the carrier mobility in such devices at the reverse gate-voltage sweep is much higher than that at the forward gate-voltage sweep. The possible origins for this effect are discussed.
