研究目的
To demonstrate a low-temperature solution-processed oxide thin-film transistor (TFT) fabrication technique using a hydrogen injection and oxidation (HIO) process for improved TFT characteristics and compatibility with flexible substrates.
研究成果
The HIO method significantly improves the performance of low-temperature solution-processed oxide TFTs, achieving reasonable mobility and small hysteresis. The method is also compatible with flexible substrates, offering a simple and low-cost fabrication technique.
研究不足
The study focuses on IGZO-based TFTs and may require further validation for other oxide semiconductors. The process temperatures, while lower than conventional methods, may still need optimization for certain flexible substrates.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study employed a hydrogen injection and oxidation (HIO) process to improve the characteristics of solution-processed oxide TFTs. The process involved hydrogen plasma treatment for hydrogen injection followed by thermal annealing for oxidation.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
IGZO precursor solution was spin-coated on thermally oxidized SiO2/n+-Si substrates. The substrates served as the gate electrode.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Spin-coater for film deposition, hydrogen plasma treatment system, thermal annealing setup, photolithography equipment for patterning, DC sputtering for electrode formation.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The IGZO precursor solution was spin-coated, pre-annealed, and post-annealed. The HIO process was applied, followed by patterning of the active area and formation of source/drain electrodes.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The transfer characteristics of the TFTs were assessed to evaluate performance improvements.
