Room-temperature flexible thin film transistor with high mobility

Abstract

We report a room-temperature and high-mobility InGaZnO thin-film transistor on flexible substrate. To gain both high gate capacitance and low leakage current, we adopt stacked dielectric of Y2O3/TiO2/Y2O3. This flexible IGZO TFT shows a low threshold voltage of 0.45 V, a small sub-threshold swing of 0.16 V/decade and very high field-effect mobility of 40 cm(2)/V. Such good performance is mainly contributed by improved gate stack structure and thickness modulation of IGZO channel that reduce the interface trap density without apparent mobility degradation.
