Abstract | Despite rapid progress in 2D molybdenum disulfide (MoS
2
) research in recent years, MoS
2
field-effect transistors (FETs) still suffer from a high metal-to-MoS
2
contact resistance and low intrinsic mobility, which are major hindrances to their future application. We report an efficient technique to dope thin-film MoS
2
FETs using a poly(vinyl-alcohol) (PVA) polymeric coating. This results in a reduction of the contact resistance by up to 30% as well as a reduction in the channel resistance to 20 kΩ sq
−1
. Using a dehydration process, we were able to effectively control the surface interactions between MoS
2
and the more electropositive hydroxyl groups (-OH) of PVA, which provided a controllable and yet reversible increase in the charge carrier density to a value of 8.0 × 10
12
cm
−2
. The non-covalent, thus non-destructive, PVA doping of MoS
2
increases the carrier concentration without degrading the mobility, which shows a monotonic increase while enhancing the doping effect. The PVA doping technique is then exploited to create heavily doped access regions to the intrinsic MoS
2
channel, which yields 200% increase of the ON-state source-drain current. This establishes PVA doping as an effective approach to enhance the transport properties of MoS
2
FETs for a variety of applications.
Despite rapid progress MoS
2
field-effect transistors (FET's) still suffers major hindrances like high contact resistance (
R

). Here we enhanced the performance of FET's by functionalization with an organic polymer. |
