Abstract
We realized ambipolar Field-Effect Transistors by coupling exfoliated thin flakes of tungsten disulphide (WS2) with an ionic liquid-dielectric. The devices show ideal electrical characteristics, including very steep sub-threshold slopes for both electrons and holes and extremely low OFF-state currents. Thanks to these ideal characteristics, we determine with high precision the size of the band-gap of WS2 directly from the gate-voltage dependence of the source-drain current. Our results demonstrate how a careful use of ionic liquid dielectrics offers a powerful strategy to study quantitatively the electronic properties of nano-scale materials.
