Various novel applications of flexible displays, such as electronic paper, and wearable displays, are among the most significant technologies in the next generation. Moreover, the emerging conscience of environmental protection renders the reusable electronic as a viable solution. It is believed that flexible electronics and displays will appear and play an important role in the market soon. Oxide thin-film transistors (TFTs) could exhibit high mobility in the amorphous phase. In addition, their transparency in visible region can improve the pixel aperature ratio in flat-panel displays. These benefits of oxide TFTs render their highly potential to replace amorphous silicon (a-Si) TFTs. Most importantly, oxide TFTs could be fabricated at relatively low temperatures and thus are compatible with flexible electronics on plastic substrates. In this thesis, we use fully lithographic and etching processes, polyimide as the flexible substrate and the amorphous indium gallium zinc oxide (a-IGZO) as the active layer to fabricate flexible oxide TFTs. First, we analyze the effects of wet-etching and dry-etching techniques on device fabrication. Then, we demonstrate a technique of using the etch-stop layer to protect polyimide substrates and the other dielectric layers from erosion during the dry etching of electrodes. Finally, we characterize the variation of device performances after they are bended in the different bending curvatures. We show that these devices can function normally even after they are bended in the radius of curvature of a few millimeters.第一章 序論..................................1 1.1 軟性電子與顯示器發展....................1 1.1.1 軟性電子與顯示器之應用..............1 1.1.2 軟性電晶體與顯示器之發展............1 1.1.3 軟性基板介紹........................3 1.2 氧化物半導體載子傳輸特性................5 1.3 薄膜電晶體結構與操作特性................6 1.4 研究動機................................9 1.5 論文架構................................9 1.6 參考資料...............................10二章 軟性氧化物半導體薄膜電晶體之製程.....18 2.1 前言...................................18 2.2 元件製備...............................18 2.3 溼式蝕刻法定義電極圖樣.................21 2.3.1 王水蝕刻氧化銦錫...................21 2.3.2 鈦酸蝕刻鈦金屬膜...................21 2.3.3 酸液蝕刻鈦/金/鈦多層金屬膜.........22 2.4 乾式蝕刻法定義電極圖樣.................23 2.5 乾/溼式蝕刻法定義電極圖樣..............26 2.6 參考資料...............................28三章 元件特性分析與探討...................43 3.1 前言...................................43 3.2 利用溼蝕刻氧化銦錫為電極之薄膜電晶體...44 3.2.1 電晶體置於平面時之分析.............44 3.2.2 電晶體於撓曲後之分析...............45 3.3 利用乾蝕刻鈦為電極之薄膜電晶體.........46 3.3.1 電晶體置於平面時之分析.............46 3.3.2 電晶體於撓曲後之分析...............47 3.4 利用乾蝕刻鈦及溼蝕刻氧化銦鋅複合電極之薄膜電晶體..49 3.4.1 電晶體置於平面時之分析.............49 3.4.2 電晶體於撓曲後之分析...............50 3.5 參考資料...............................51四章 總結與未來展望.......................71 4.1 總結...................................71 4.2 未來展望...............................72959054 bytesapplication/pdfen-US軟性氧化物半導體薄膜電晶體FlexibleOxide SemiconductorTFT可用於可撓性顯示器之軟性氧化物半導體薄膜電晶體之研究Study of Flexible Oxide Semiconductor Thin Film Transistors for Flexible Flat Panel Displaythesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/189223/1/ntu-98-R96943061-1.pdf
