| Sumario: | Due to their extraordinary electrical and physical properties, two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are considered promising for use in next-generation electrical devices. However, the application of TMD-based devices is limited because of the Schottky barrier interface resulting from the absence of dangling bonds on the TMDs’ surface. Here, we introduce a facile phase-tuning approach for forming a homogenous interface between semiconducting hexagonal (2H) and semi-metallic monoclinic (1T′) molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe<sub>2</sub>). The formation of ohmic contacts increases the charge carrier mobility of MoTe<sub>2</sub> field-effect transistor devices to 16.1 cm<sup>2</sup> V<sup>−1</sup>s<sup>−1</sup> with high reproducibility, while maintaining a high on/off current ratio by efficiently improving charge injection at the interface. The proposed method enables a simple fabrication process, local patterning, and large-area scaling for the creation of high-performance 2D electronic devices. |
