Bias-stress effects in PE-ALD poly-crystalline ZnO-TFTs

Bias-stress effects in PE-ALD poly-crystalline ZnO-TFTs
Bias-stress effects in PE-ALD poly-crystalline ZnO-TFTs
We report on the impact of fixed bias-stress on the electrical characteristics of polycrystalline ZnO thin-film transistors (TFT). Positive and negative bias stress is typically explored in amorphous metal-oxide TFTs, often at a single fixed bias point. In this work, we examine bias-stress effects in ZnO-TFTs with multiple fixed gate-source voltages (VGS(fixed)), across a 24-hour period for each voltage point. Threshold voltage (Vth) is used to assess changes in ZnO-TFT electrical characteristics, with a stretched-exponential fit to model temporal trends in Vth. This method provides an insight into long-term charge carrier migration between polycrystalline ZnO channel and dielectric materials.

Abstract

We report on the impact of fixed bias-stress on the electrical characteristics of polycrystalline ZnO thin-film transistors (TFT). Positive and negative bias stress is typically explored in amorphous metal-oxide TFTs, often at a single fixed bias point. In this work, we examine bias-stress effects in ZnO-TFTs with multiple fixed gate-source voltages (VGS(fixed)), across a 24-hour period for each voltage point. Threshold voltage (Vth) is used to assess changes in ZnO-TFT electrical characteristics, with a stretched-exponential fit to model temporal trends in Vth. This method provides an insight into long-term charge carrier migration between polycrystalline ZnO channel and dielectric materials.
