Abstract

This study determined the top (vertical) and edge (horizontal) resistivities of metal–MoS2 contact based on the experimental results obtained using the transmission line measurement structure. A novel two-step sulfurization scheme was conducted for forming Nb-doped MoS2 films on a sapphire substrate. The edge contact resistivity, ρC_edge, was almost two orders of magnitude lower than the top contact resistivity, ρC_top. Our findings highlight a simple and effective method to accurately determine the edge and top contact resistances of a metal–two-dimensional material contact.
