Enhancement-mode multilayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS{sub 2}) field-effect transistors (FETs), which are an immensely important component toward low-power electronics based on a two-dimensional layered semiconductor, are demonstrated using the fluoropolymer CYTOP as a gate dielectric. The fabricated devices exhibit threshold voltage (V{sub TH}) of ∼5.7 V with field-effect mobility (μ{sub FE}) of up to 82.3 cm{sup 2}/V s, and the characteristics are compared with the depletion-mode characteristics of MoS{sub 2} FETs with the cross-linked Poly(4-vinylphenol) gate dielectric (V{sub TH} ∼ −7.8 V). UV photoelectron spectroscopy analysis indicates that increased surface potential due to the surface dipole effect of the fluorine group influences the positive V{sub TH} shift.
