Abstract
- Thin-film transistors (TFTs) using indium zinc oxide as the active layer and anodic aluminium oxide (Al2O3) as the gate dielectric layer were fabricated. The device showed an electron mobility of as high as 10.1 cm2 V[?]1 s[?]1, an on/off current ratio of as high as [?]108, and a turn-on voltage (Von) of only [?]0.5 V. Furthermore, this kind of TFTs was very stable under positive bias illumination stress. However, when the device experienced negative bias illumination stress, the threshold voltage shifted to the positive direction. It was found that the instability under negative bias illumination stress (NBIS) was due to the electrons from the Al gate trapping into the Al2O3 dielectric when exposed to the illuminated light. Using a stacked structure of Al2O3/SiO2 dielectrics, the device became more stable under NBIS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
