Abstract:

We report the application of one-shadow-mask self-assembled method for fabricating low-voltage transparent oxide-based thin film transistors (TFTs) gated by atomic-layer-deposited Al2O3 with in-plane-gate configuration. These in-plane-gate TFTs exhibit a good device performance with a small subthreshold swing (300 mV/decade), a large on/off ratio (106), and a low operation voltage (5V). The leakage current for in-plane-gate TFT is actually significantly lower, compared with TFT with bottom-gate configuration. This work has provided a good route for fabricating low-power transparent electronics using simple processing method.
