- To design high quality devices based on atomically thin semiconductors, the physical mechanisms underpinning their operation must be understood. This paper addresses the challenge of slow carrier dynamics and provides new tools to analyse time evolution of currents in these devices, supported by a detailed analytical model developed by the authors. The newly discovered phenomenon is demonstrated using different materials and several devices, and proves to be completely transferable to other material systems that are thinner than the electrostatic screening length. The new method has been adapted by leading groups around the world (e.g., Advanced Materials 30, 1800220 (2018)).
