Abstract: 

Two-dimensional transistors are promising candidates for the next generation of nanoscale devices. Like the other alternatives, they also encounter problems such as instability under standard condition, low channel mobility, small band gaps, and difficulty to integrate metal contacts.

2D transition metal di-chalcogenides showed promising properties that could solve some of these obstacles.

In this study, we calculate the charge transport in various 2D TMDC metal/semiconductor/metal systems, with high accuracy achieved by considering the quantum charge effects, such as tunneling, short channel effect, electron-electron interaction and p-phonon coupling.
