Two-dimensional (2D) ferroelectrics usually exhibit instability or a tendency toward degradation when exposed to the ambient atmosphere, and the mechanism behind this phenomenon remains unclear. To unravel this affection mechanism, we have undertaken an investigation utilizing NH and two-dimensional ferroelectric SnS. Herein, the adsorption and desorption of NH molecules can reversibly modulate the electrical properties of SnS, encompassing I-V curves and transfer curves. The response time for NH adsorption is approximately 1.12 s, which is much quicker than that observed in other two-dimensional materials. KPFM characterizations indicate that air molecules' adsorption alters the surface potentials of SiO, SnS, metal electrodes, and contacts with minimal impact on the electrode contact surface potential. Upon the adsorption of NH molecules or air molecules, the hole concentration within the device decreases. These findings elucidate the adsorption mechanism of NH molecules on SnS, potentially fostering the advancement of rapid gas sensing applications utilizing two-dimensional ferroelectrics.
二维(2D)铁电体在暴露于环境大气时通常会表现出不稳定性或降解趋势,而这一现象背后的机制仍不清楚。为了揭示这种影响机制,我们利用NH和二维铁电体SnS进行了一项研究。在此,NH分子的吸附和解吸可以可逆地调节SnS的电学性质,包括I-V曲线和转移曲线。NH吸附的响应时间约为1.12秒,这比在其他二维材料中观察到的要快得多。KPFM表征表明,空气分子的吸附改变了SiO、SnS、金属电极的表面电位以及接触,对电极接触表面电位的影响最小。在吸附NH分子或空气分子后,器件内的空穴浓度降低。这些发现阐明了NH分子在SnS上的吸附机制,有望推动利用二维铁电体的快速气体传感应用的发展。
