摘要:

碲化锰(manganese telluride,MnTe)作为一种新兴的非层状二维材料,因其优异的性质以及在下一代电子和光电子器件中的巨大潜力,而受到研究学者们的广泛关注。然而,目前超薄二维MnTe的可控合成仍然是一个巨大的挑战,这限制了对其基础性质的研究和应用的深入探索。本文采用化学气相沉积方法成功合成了大面积的MnTe纳米片,并探究了其厚度对电学性质和器件应用的影响。通过提高MnTe纳米片的生长温度,样品厚度逐渐增加,晶畴尺寸从10 μm增至125 μm,形貌从三角形逐渐过度到六边形,最终生长成高度对称的圆形。结构表征和二次谐波测试表明,所制备的MnTe纳米片具有高度的结晶质量和优异的二阶非线性光学性质。此外,通过对不同厚度MnTe纳米片的电学输运测试,发现随着厚度从薄到厚,其导电特性从p型半导体逐渐转变为半金属。因此,利用半导体特性的薄层MnTe纳米片构建的光电探测器展现出出色的光响应性能。而将金属特性的厚层MnTe作为MoS2场效应晶体管的接触电极,显著提高了器件性能,如载流子迁移率可从12.76 cm2∙V−1∙s−1 (Au接触)提升到47.34 cm2∙V−1∙s−1 (MnTe接触)。

Abstract:

Two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) exhibit diverse structures, encompassing a broad spectrum of electronic types ranging from metal, semiconductor, to insulator and topological insulator. They hold immense potential for both Moore and more-than-Moore device applications. Among them, manganese telluride (MnTe), an emerging nonlayered 2D material, has garnered considerable attention due to its exceptional properties and significant application potential in next-generation electronic and optoelectronic devices. However, the controllable synthesis of ultra-thin 2D MnTe remains a great challenge, which hindering the comprehensive exploration of its fundamental properties and potential applications. In this study, we present the synthesis of large-area MnTe nanosheets through chemical vapor deposition growth, showcasing its thickness-dependent properties and device applications. By increasing the growth temperature from 500 to 750 ℃, the MnTe nanosheets' thickness transitions from thin-layer to a thick flake, the domain size increases from 10 to 125 μm, the morphology changes from triangle to hexagon, culminating in a highly symmetrical round shape. Structural characterization and second harmonic generation measurements reveal that the obtained MnTe nanosheets exhibit high crystallization quality and superior second-order optical nonlinearity. The field effect transistor (FET) constructed with thin-layer MnTe demonstrates a p-type semiconductor characteristic, transitioning to a semimetal feature as the thickness increases to a thick flake. Leveraging these thickness-dependent electrical conduction transition features, we explore diverse applications of MnTe with varying thicknesses. The semiconductive thin-layer MnTe, serving as the photosensitive channel in a device, achieves superior photoresponse, showcasing considerable potential for photodetection appliations. The semimetallic thick-layer MnTe, acting as the contact electrode in a MoS2 FET, significantly enhances device performance, with carrier mobility increasing from 12.76 cm2∙V−1∙s−1 (Au contact) to 47.34 cm2∙V−1∙s−1 (MnTe contact). This work lays the foundation for the controllable synthesis of nonlayered 2D MnTe and provides insights into its prospective development for constructing innovative electronic and optoelectronic devices.
