Abstract :
An ultrahigh photocurrent (PC) signal which was about thousand times higher compared to the corresponding dark current was achieved in a two-dimensional (2D) multi-layer MoS2 field effect transistor (FET), owing to a gate-controlled MoS2/Ti/Au Schottky barrier (SB) modulation. The SBs can be enlarged for suppressing the electron drift along the channel in dark environment, and be reduced for the collection of photo-excited charge carriers in illuminating environment, providing the great potential for 2D electronic and optoelectronic applications.
