Abstract

The short channel poly-Si TFT is important in aspect of transistor characteristics, packing density and aperture ratio. In this paper, we have reported the degradation phenomena of short channel poly-Si TFT's which had significantly degraded device parameters, such as threshold voltage shift and a great asymmetric degradation, due to gate and drain electrical stress. The reduced effective channel length and expanded depletion region may be the main reason of these significant device parameters.
