In place of impurity doped Si film, Ti of low work-function metal was adopted for source and drain. Hydrogen annealing steps were performed and the resultant TFT performance was compared for each step after channel formation, after deposition of insulating film or after completed TFT formation to optimize the hydrogen annealing process. Higher TFT performance is expected by performing the pre-hydrogen annealing after channel formation and subsequent forming annealing after completing Al electrode below 400°C.","PeriodicalId":243757,"journal":{"name":"2015 22nd International Workshop on Active-Matrix Flatpanel Displays and Devices (AM-FPD)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133113174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The position control was accomplished by the cycle designs of atomic-layer deposition process for the AZO channels. When the Al dopant layer was positioned at relative bottom sides of the channel, the turn-on operations were performed at smaller negative gate voltages in their transfer characteristics. Other device properties including the positive bias stability did not show any marked variations among the devices. The distance between the incorporated Al dopant layers had also impacts on the TFT characteristics. Concentrated positioning of two cycles of Al doping layers was found to severely degrade the current drivability due to the decrease in carrier mobility. Further optimization of this technique would be very helpful to enhance the device performance of the AZO TFTs for practical transparent electronics applications.","PeriodicalId":243757,"journal":{"name":"2015 22nd International Workshop on Active-Matrix Flatpanel Displays and Devices (AM-FPD)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123071491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
