报告题目:Recent Progress in MZO TFT Technology
报告摘要:Thin Film Transistor (TFT) is a critically important device technology for large area electronics and systems, include displays, sensor arrays, and embedded power sources. The emerging wearable electronic systems demand the new TFT technology with multifunctional capability, low power consumption, and fast speed. The conventional silicon TFT technologies are facing severe challenges due to low mobility in amorphous silicon (a-Si) and non-uniformity in polycrystalline silicon TFTs.
There has been increasing interest in oxide-based TFTs for wearable applications. Zinc oxide (ZnO) – based TFT has been receiving considerable attention due to its higher electron mobility, transparency in visible light region, and superior radiation hardness over the Si TFTs. However, TFTs using the pure ZnO suffer from the instability issue. We have developed In-free MgxZn1-xO (MZO) as the TFT channel layer. Mg composition in the MgxZn1-xO is controlled below 6% (x ≤ 0.06) to avoid alloying disorder induced degradation. The stronger Mg-O bonding effectively suppresses the oxygen vacancy related defects and improves the electrical characteristics of ZnO-based TFTs. MZO TFTs technology exhibits superior thermal stability and smaller shift of threshold voltages under negative bias stress (NBS) tests than that of the ZnO counterpart, owing to less ionization and migration of oxygen vacancies. The MZO TFT technology presents a great impact on the future classes of low cost and multifunctional applications in wearable electronics. MZO TFT-based UV detector and bio-TFT are presented. In this talk, the new progress in MZO TFT technology, including the RF frequency tunable devices operating at GHz range and the high voltage TFT (HVTFT) on glass for PV inverter will also be reported.
