Although the TFT devices initially exhibited similar electrical characteristics, the TFTs annealed at 350 ¢XC demonstrated stability characteristics superior to those annealed at 200 ¢XC. This result is due to the improved crystallinity and more stable phase with greater proportion of Zn replaced by Mg in the ZnO crystals. The results also reveal a hump shape in the subthreshold region of the transfer characteristics, which is induced by the positive gate-bias stress at elevated temperatures. The hump phenomenon was suppressed in the TFT annealed at 350 ¢XC. The hump disappeared shortly after removing the positive gate bias, suggesting that this phenomenon was meta-stable and resulted from gate-bias-induced electric field. One possible mechanism responsible for the hump formation in the transfer curve is the gate-field-induced back-channel parasitic transistor. Alternatively, this hump phenomenon might have been due to the creation of meta-stable vacancies in which the neutral defects were thermally excited and released electrons into the active layer to form a leakage path when the TFTs were subjected to gate-bias stress at elevated temperatures. ? 2006 IEEE. |
