High-density carrier-accumulated and electrically stable oxide thin-film transistors from ion-gel gate dielectric.

ABSTRACT: The use of indium-gallium-zinc oxide (IGZO) has paved the way for high-resolution uniform displays or integrated circuits with transparent and flexible devices. However, achieving highly reliable devices that use IGZO for low-temperature processes remains a technological challenge. We propose the use of IGZO thin-film transistors (TFTs) with an ionic-liquid gate dielectric in order to achieve high-density carrier-accumulated IGZO TFTs with high reliability, and we discuss a distinctive mechanism for the degradation of this organic-inorganic hybrid device under long-term electrical stress. Our results demonstrated that an ionic liquid or gel gate dielectric provides highly reliable and low-voltage operation with IGZO TFTs. Furthermore, high-density carrier accumulation helps improve the TFT characteristics and reliability, and it is highly relevant to the electronic phase control of oxide materials and the degradation mechanism for organic-inorganic hybrid devices.

Project description:The key impact and significance of a multilayer polymer-based dielectric system on the remarkable photoresponse properties of zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc)-based photosensitive organic field-effect transistors (PS-OFETs) have been systematically analyzed at various incident optical powers. A combination of inorganic aluminum oxide (Al2O3) and organic nonpolar poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) is used as the bilayer dielectric configuration, whereas in the trilayer dielectric system, a bilayer polymer dielectric, consisting of PMMA, as the low-k dielectric polymer, on top of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), the high-k polar dielectric, has been fabricated along with Al2O3 as the third layer. Before fabricating the OFETs, a systematic optimization of the nature of growth of the ZnPc molecules, deposited on PMMA-coated glass substrates at different substrate temperatures (T s) was performed and examined by atomic-force microscopy, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Raman analysis. At 90 °C, the fabricated PS-OFETs with the Al2O3/PVA/PMMA trilayer dielectric configuration showed the best p-channel behavior, with an enhanced and remarkable photoresponsivity of R ∼ 9689.39 A W-1 compared to that of the Al2O3/PMMA bilayer dielectric system (R ∼ 2679.40 A W-1) due to the polarization of the dipoles inside the polar PVA dielectric, which increases the charge transport through the channel. The charge carrier mobility of the device also improved by one order (μh ∼ 1.3 × 10-2 cm2 V-1 s-1) compared to that of the bilayer dielectric configuration (μh ∼ 3.5 × 10-3 cm2 V-1 s-1). The observed specific detectivity (D*) and NEP values of the bilayer dielectric system were 6.01 × 1013 Jones and 2.655 × 10-17 W Hz-1/2, whereas for the trilayer dielectric system, the observed D* and NEP values were 5.13 × 1014 Jones and 1.043 × 10-17 W Hz-1/2, respectively. Additionally, the operating voltage of each of the fabricated devices was also very low (-10 V) due to the influence of the inorganic high-k Al2O3 dielectric layer. The electrical stability of all of the fabricated devices was also investigated by bias stress analysis under both light and dark conditions in vacuum. To the best of our knowledge, the photoresponsivity (R) reported here with an Al2O3/PVA/PMMA trilayer dielectric configuration is the highest reported value for thin film-based PS-OFETs, at a remarkably low operating voltage of -10 V, on low-cost glass substrates without indium tin oxide or/and Si/SiO2.
