研究目的
Investigating the fabrication of high-performance, transparent, and flexible thin-film transistors (TFTs) at ultralow temperatures by atomic layer deposition (ALD) using ZnO and Al2O3 as channels and dielectric layers, respectively.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrates the fabrication of high-performance, transparent, and flexible TFTs at ultralow temperatures using ALD. The TFTs exhibit superior performance compared to silicon-based TFTs, with the best performance achieved at 100 °C. The findings suggest potential applications in flexible and transparent electronics.
研究不足
The study focuses on the fabrication and characterization of TFTs at ultralow temperatures without postgrowth annealing. The performance comparison is limited to silicon-based TFTs. The scalability and long-term stability of the fabricated TFTs in practical applications are not extensively discussed.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study employs atomic layer deposition (ALD) for fabricating TFTs at ultralow temperatures (80, 90, and 100 °C) without postgrowth annealing. ZnO and Al2O3 are used as the channel and dielectric layers, respectively.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Heavily doped p-Si substrates are used for the initial fabrication, followed by transfer to plastic substrates for flexible TFTs.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
ALD system (Beneq TFS-200), AFM (Bruker Multimode 8), HRTEM (JEM 2010 FEF), XPS (Thermo Fisher Scientific ESCLAB 250Xi), UV-visible spectrophotometer (UV-2550; Shimadzu).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Deposition of Al2O3 and ZnO thin films by ALD, photolithography and wet etching for channel definition, thermal evaporation for electrode deposition.
