Abstract:
Back‐channel‐etched (BCE) thin‐film transistors (TFTs) with an InGaO/InZnO stacked channel are developed, in which the InGaO and InZnO provide a highly acid‐resistant back channel and a high‐mobility front channel, respectively. The electrical performance of the TFT is optimized by adjusting the InGaO thickness. The best performance is achieved for the TFT with 10 nm thick InGaO. A thinner InGaO layer leads to inferior performance due to damage during the back‐channel‐etching process, while a thicker InGaO layer results in a hump effect and significant negative shifts in the threshold voltage ( V th ) and turn‐on voltage ( V on ), which should be ascribed to the large total carrier number in the channel. The optimal TFT exhibits a high saturated field‐effect mobility of 28.9 cm 2 V −1 s −1 , a near‐zero V th of −0.17 V, a V on of −0.49 V, a low subthreshold swing of 0.12 V dec −1 , a high on‐to‐off current ratio of 3.5 × 10 9 , and a low contact resistance between the source/drain (S/D) electrodes and channel. The TFT also exhibits high stability under bias thermal stress.
