•Temperature dependent hysteresis in the transfer curves of monolayer CVD MoS2 FETs were analyzed.•The FET transfer curve hysteresis rotation reverses following a bias stress.•A multi-level trap model indicates possible influence of both bulk MoS2 traps and interface traps.•On current increases and threshold voltage becomes more negative as the temperature increases.
Thermal and hysteresis effects are studied for the first time in Al2O3 top-gated, CVD grown monolayer MoS2 field effect transistors (FETs). Stressing with an applied bias reversed the hysteresis rotation in the high temperature Ids–Vgs transfer characteristics and this behavior, indicative of a multilevel trap model, was explained by charge carriers interacting with traps possibly at the MoS2/dielectric interface and within the CVD grown MoS2. High temperature FET characteristics measured up to 125 °C demonstrated pinch-off degradation and the influence of trapping/detrapping rates in both the top and bottom gate dielectric. This indicates the importance of maintaining oxide and interface quality for good FET performance.
