Sumario: | Abstract We propose a hybrid gate structure for ion gel dielectrics using an ultra-thin Al2O3 passivation layer for realizing high-performance devices based on electric-double-layer capacitors. Electric-double-layer transistors can be applied to practical devices with flexibility and transparency as well as research on the fundamental physical properties of channel materials; however, they suffer from inherent unwanted leakage currents between electrodes, especially for channel materials with low off-currents. Therefore, the Al2O3 passivation layer was introduced between the metal electrodes and ion gel film as a leakage current barrier; this simple approach effectively reduced the leakage current without capacitance degradation. In addition, we confirmed that a monolayer MoS2 transistor fabricated with the proposed hybrid gate dielectric exhibited remarkably enhanced device properties compared to a transistor using a normal ion gel gate dielectric. Our findings on a simple method to improve the leakage current properties of ion gels could be applied extensively to realize high-performance electric-double-layer transistors utilizing various channel materials. |
