研究目的
To demonstrate high-performance, full-swing inverters implemented with InGaZnO thin-film transistors (TFTs) capable of operating at a very low voltage, with potential applications in future wearable and disposable electronics.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrated high-performance, full-swing IGZO inverters operating at very low voltages, with high voltage gains and noise margins. The method of varying anodization voltages for gate dielectrics presents a simple and efficient approach for future low-cost, low-power electronics.
研究不足
The study focuses on n-type oxide TFTs, and achieving high performance p-type operation remains challenging. The fabrication process, while efficient, may require further optimization for industrial scalability.
