- Abstract
- The inherent interlayer resistance in two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) multilayers is expected to significantly influence the carrier density profile along the thickness, provoking spatial modification and separation of the conducting channel inside the multilayers, in conjunction with the thickness-dependent carrier mobility. However, the effect of the interlayer resistance on the variation in the carrier density profile and its direction along the thickness under different electrostatic bias conditions has been elusive. Here, we reveal the presence of a negative differential interlayer resistance (NDIR) in WSe2 multilayers by considering various contact electrode configurations: (i) bottom contact, (ii) top contact, and (iii) vertical double-side contact (VDC). The contact-structure-dependent shape modification of the transconductance clearly manifests the redistribution of carrier density and indicates the direction of the conducting channel migration along the thickness. Furthermore, the distinct characteristic of the electrically tunable NDIR in 2D WSe2 multilayers is revealed by the observed discrepancy between the top- and bottom-channel resistances determined by four-probe measurements with VDC. Our results provide an optimized device layout and further insights into the distinct carrier transport mechanism in 2D vdW multilayers. © 2023 American Chemical Society.
