Wafer-Scale Atomic Layer-Deposited TeOx/Te Heterostructure P-Type Thin-Film Transistors

There is an increasing demand for p-type semiconductors with scalable growth, excellent device performance, and back-end-of-line (BEOL) compatibility. Recently, tellurium (Te) has emerged as a promising candidate due to its appealing electrical properties and potential low-temperature production. So far, nearly all of the scalable production and integration of Te with complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology have been based on physical vapor deposition. Here we demonstrate wafer-scale atomic layer-deposited (ALD) TeO
