The effect of nitridation treatment on the band alignment between few-layer MoS and HfO has been investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The valence (conduction) band offsets of MoS/HfO with and without nitridation treatment were determined to be 2.09 ± 0.1 (2.41 ± 0.1) and 2.34 ± 0.1 (2.16 ± 0.1) eV, respectively. The tunable band alignment could be attributed to the Mo-N bonding formation and surface band bending for HfO triggered by nitridation. This study on the energy band engineering of MoS/HfO heterojunctions may also be extended to other high-k dielectrics for integrating with two-dimensional materials to design and optimize their electronic devices.
通过X射线光电子能谱研究了氮化处理对少层MoS与HfO之间能带排列的影响。经氮化处理和未经氮化处理的MoS/HfO的价带(导带)偏移分别确定为2.09±0.1(2.41±0.1)和2.34±0.1(2.16±0.1)eV。这种可调谐的能带排列可归因于氮化引发的Mo-N键形成以及HfO的表面能带弯曲。对MoS/HfO异质结能带工程的这项研究也可能扩展到其他高k电介质,以便与二维材料集成,从而设计和优化其电子器件。
