Selective chemical doping in two-dimensional (2D) molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is attractive for tailoring electrical properties according to device requirements. However, the ultra-thin 2D nature of MoS2 makes it difficult to realize effective doping by conventional ion implantation. Here, a simple method based on low-temperature (150 °C) annealing in air is developed for effective chemical doping in MoS2. We have demonstrated that the threshold voltage (V(th)) of multilayer MoS2 FET can be…
