  • 摘要: 在显示与柔性电子领域,铟镓锌锡氧薄膜晶体管(IGZTO TFTs)凭借高迁移率、低漏电流及优异的光学透过性,成为推动下一代高分辨率显示、透明电路及柔性传感技术发展的核心器件。高k栅介质材料具备优异的电荷调控能力,可有效降低器件工作电压与亚阈值摆幅,对提升TFTs性能至关重要。本研究采用射频磁控溅射技术,分别以二氧化硅(SiO2)和高k介电材料二氧化铪(HfO2)为栅介质层制备了IGZTO TFTs。研究表明,通过HfO2栅介质与IGZTO有源层的界面调控及栅压调制,显著优化了器件载流子传输特性,实现了低电压驱动与低亚阈值摆幅,有效提升了器件的电学性能与稳定性。相比于SiO2/IGZTO TFTs,所制备的HfO2/IGZTO TFTs展现出更优异性能,阈值电压由−7.34调控至0.35 V,亚阈值摆幅由0.827降低至0.096 V/decade,迁移率由30.3提升至45.8 cm2V−1s−1。器件稳定性进一步得到提升,在负偏压应力(NBS)和正偏压应力(PBS)下的阈值电压偏移ΔVth分别为−0.21 V和−0.11 V。结果表明,室温下制备的兼具高迁移率与高稳定性的HfO2/IGZTO TFTs在未来高分辨率显示及先进柔性电子等领域有着广阔的应用前景。

     

    Abstract: In the fields of display and flexible electronics, indium gallium zinc tin oxide thin-film transistors (IGZTO TFTs) have become core devices promoting the development of next-generation high-resolution displays, transparent circuits and flexible sensing technologies, owing to their high mobility, low leakage current and excellent optical transmittance. High-k gate dielectrics possess outstanding charge modulation capability, which can effectively reduce operating voltage and subthreshold swing of devices, playing a crucial role in improving TFTs performance. In this work, IGZTO TFTs were fabricated by radio frequency magnetron sputtering with SiO2 and high-k HfO2 as gate dielectrics, respectively. The results demonstrate that interface engineering and gate voltage modulation between HfO2 dielectric and IGZTO channel layer remarkably optimize carrier transport behavior, realize low-voltage driving and low subthreshold swing, and greatly enhance electrical characteristics as well as bias stability. Compared with SiO2/IGZTO TFTs, HfO2/IGZTO TFTs exhibit superior device performance: the threshold voltage is tuned from −7.34 to 0.35 V, subthreshold swing decreases from 0.827 to 0.096 V/decade, and field-effect mobility increases from 30.3 to 45.8 cm2V−1s−1. Device stability is also significantly improved, with threshold voltage shifts ΔVth of −0.21 V and −0.11 V under negative bias stress (NBS) and positive bias stress (PBS), respectively. The results indicate that the HfO2/IGZTO TFTs prepared at room temperature, which combine high mobility and high stability, have broad application prospects in future high-resolution displays and advanced flexible electronics.
