Abstract
We report the fabrication of back-gated field-effect transistors (FETs) using ultra-thin, mechanically exfoliated MoSe2 flakes. The MoSe2 FETs are n-type and possess a high gate modulation, with On/Off ratios larger than 106. The devices show asymmetric characteristics upon swapping the source and drain, a finding explained by the presence of Schottky barriers at the metal contact/MoSe2 interface. Using four-point, back-gated devices, we measure the intrinsic conductivity and mobility of MoSe2 as a function of gate bias, and temperature. Samples with a room temperature mobility of ∼ 50 cm2/V·s show a strong temperature dependence, suggesting phonons are a dominant scattering mechanism.

Mobility engineering and metal-insulator transition in monolayer MoS2

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on electrical transport measurements on MoS2 FETs in different dielectric configurations and show clear evidence of the strong suppression of charge impurity scattering in dual-gate devices with a top-gate Dielectric together with phonon scattering that shows a weaker than expected temperature dependence.

- 15 Nov 1967 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a short-range interaction is discussed which couples the charge carriers in highly anisotropic layer structures to the nonpolar optical lattice modes, and the relatively low room-temperature mobilities as well as the high values of the exponents $n$ are explained in terms of the proposed interaction.
