Abstract
Transport properties of about 3 nm channel length monolayer MoX2 (X = S, Se, Te) n-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) are examined through ballistic full-band quantum transport simulations with atomistic tight-binding Hamiltonians. Our simulations reveal that single gate (SG) monolayer MoX2 MOSFETs with an approximately 2 nm gate underlap exhibit reasonable subthreshold characteristics. From these full-band simulations, we observe channel orientation dependent negative differential resistance (NDR) in the out characteristics in the ballistic transport regime. We discuss and compare NDR properties of monolayer MoX2 n-channel MOSFETs in different transport directions
