Abstract

Effects of thermal annealing on electrical characteristics of thin film transistors (TFTs) using hydrogenated zinc oxide (ZnO:H) films as active channel were extensively investigated. The ZnO:H films were deposited at room temperature by RF sputtering. The device parameters of the ZnO:H-based TFTs, such as threshold voltage ($V_{th}$), subthreshold swing (S.S.), and on-off current ratio ($I_{on}/I_{off}$), were characterized in terms of the annealing temperature as well as the gas flow ratio of $H_2$/Ar.
