Ohmic Contacts to Low-dimensional Materials using Bismuth.
Devices, such as transistors, that use bismuth to create ohmic contacts are provided, as are methods of manufacturing the same. The transistors, such as field-effect transistors, can include one or more two-dimensional materials, and electrical contact areas can be created on the two-dimensional material(s) using bismuth. The bismuth can help to provide energy-barrier free, ohmic contacts, and the resulting devices can have performance levels that rival or exceed state-of-the-art devices that utilize three-dimensional materials, like silicon. The two-dimensional materials can include transition metal dichalcogenides, such as molybdenum disulfide.
