Using ab initio quantum-transport simulations, we studied the intrinsic transfer characteristics and benchmarks of the ballistic performance of 5.1 nm double-gated Schottky-barrier field effect transistors (SBFETs) consisting of in-plane (IP) heterojunctions of metallic-phase (1T or 1T′) MTe2 (M = Ti, Zr, Hf, Cr, Mo, W) and semiconducting-phase (2H) WSe2, WTe2 and Janus WSeTe. The 2H-phase Janus WSeTe is a semiconductor with an indirect bandgap (1.26 eV), which is less than the bandgap of 2H-phase WSe2 (1.64 eV) and is greater than the bandgap...
