However, the reported effective hole mobility remains far below its theoretical value. Herein, taking advantage of high-κ screening effect, we have fabricated back-gated MoTe2 transistors on an Al2O3 high-κ dielectric and systematically investigated the electronic and optoelectronic proper- ties. A high current on/off ratio exceeding 106 is achieved in the Al2O3-based MoTe2 transistors, and the hole mobility is demonstrated to be 150 cm2 V^-1 s^-1, compared to 0.2-20 cm^2 V^-1 s^-1 ever obtained from back-gated MoTe2 transistors in the literatures. Moreover, a considerable hole concentration of 1.2 × 10^13 cm 2 is attained in our Al2O3-based MoTe2 transistors owing to the strong gate control capa- bility, leading to a high on-state hole current of 6.1 μA μm^-1. After optimization, our Al2O3-based MoTe2 phototransistor exhibits outstanding photodetective performance, with a high responsivity of 543 AW^-1 and a high photogain of 1,662 at 405 nm light illumination, which are boosted around 419 times compared to the referential SiO2-based control devices. The mechanisms of photoconductivity in the Al2O3-based MoTe2 phototransistors have been analyzed in detail, and the photogating effect is considered to play an important role. This work may provide useful insight to improve carrier mobility in two-dimensional layered semiconductors and open opportunities to facilitate the development of high-performance photodetectors in the future.展开更多

In this paper, we study and design a pair of metal-dielectric optical filters based on metameric effect, which offer a hidden image effect by the color shift at a specific angle of observation. Compared with all-dielectric multilayer system, the metal-dielectric multilayer structure has larger color shift with varying incident angle, higher color saturation and fewer layers. Finally, the stacks with 5 layers and 7 layers are achieved, and the color difference index is only 0.71, which shows good metameric matching effect. Simultaneously, the sensitivity of filters to deposition errors is analyzed when the thickness deviation is ±2%, and the results show that the two filters have good manufacturability.展开更多
