We fabricated a single crystal silicon thin film transistor for active matrix organic light emitting displays(AMOLEDs) using silicon on insulator wafer (SOI wafer). Poly crystal silicon thin film transistor(poly-Si TFT) Is actively researched and developed nowsdays for a pixel switching devices of AMOLEDs. However, poly-Si TFT has some disadvantages such as high off-state leakage currents and low field-effect mobility due to a trap of grain boundary in active channel. While single crystal silicon TFT has many advantages such as high field effect mobility, low off-state leakage currents, low power consumption because of the low threshold voltage and simultaneous integration of driving ICs on a substrate. In our experiment, we compared the property of poly-Si TFT with that of SOI TFT. Poly-Si TFT exhibited a field effect mobility of 34 $\textrm{cm}^2$/Vs, an off-state leakage current of about l${\times}$10$\^$-9/ A at the gate voltage of 10 V, a subthreshold slope of 0.5 V/dec and on/off ratio of 10$\^$-4/, a threshold voltage of 7.8 V. Otherwise, single crystal silicon TFT on SOI wafer exhibited a field effect mobility of 750 $\textrm{cm}^2$/Vs, an off-state leakage current of about 1${\times}$10$\^$-10/ A at the gate voltage of 10 V, a subthreshold slope of 0.59 V/dec and on/off ratio of 10$\^$7/, a threshold voltage of 6.75 V. So, we observed that the properties of single crystal silicon TFT using SOI wafer are better than those of Poly Si TFT. For the pixel driver in AMOLEDs, the best suitable pixel driver is single crystal silicon TFT using SOI wafer.

The different hydrogen passivation effects on low-temperature processed and high-temperature processed poly-Si thin film transistors have been investigated. The hydrogen passivation on low-temperature processed poly-Si TFT results in the increase of the field-effect mobility and the decrease or the threshold voltage, while the hydrogenation increases the field-effect mobility and decreases the leakage current in high-temperature processed poly-Si TFT. The effective trap state densities of low-temperature processed poly-Si TFT before and after 5 hours of hydrogenation are estimated at about $4.0{\times}10^{12}/cm^2$ and $1.5{\times}10^{12}/cm^2$, while those of high-temperature processed poly-Si TFT are about $1.5{\times}10^{12}/cm^2$ and $1.2{\times}10^{12}/cm^2$, respectively.

a-Si:H and poly-Si TFT(thin film transistor) characteristics were investigated using an inverted staggered type TFT. The TFT an as-grown a-Si:H exhibited a low field effect mobility, transconductance, and high gate threshold voltage. The poly-Si films were achieved by using an isothermal and RTA treatment for glow discharge deposited a-Si:H films. The a-Si:H films were cystallized at the various temperature from 600$^{\circ}C$ to 1000$^{\circ}C$. As anneal temperature was elevated, the TFT exhibited increased g$\sub$m/ and reduced V$\sub$ds/. V$\sub$T/. The poly-Si grain boundary passivation with grain boundary trap types and activation energies as a function of anneal temperature. The poly-si TFT showed an improved I$\sub$nm//I$\sub$off/ ratio of 10$\^$6/, reduced gate threshold voltage, and increased field effect mobility by three orders.

The graphene, a single atomic sheet of graphite, has attracted tremendous interest owing to its novel properties including high intrinsic mobility, optical transparency and flexibility. However, for more diverse application of graphene devices, it is essential to tune its transport behavior by shifting Dirac Point (DP) of graphene. So, in the following context, we suggest a method to tune structural and electronic properties of graphene using atomic layer deposition. By atomic layer deposition of zinc oxide (ZnO) on graphene using 4-mercaptophenol as linker, we can fabricate n-doped graphene. Through ${\pi}-{\pi}$ stacking between chemically inert graphene and 4-mercaptophenol, conformal deposition of ZnO on graphene was enabled. The electron mobility of graphene TFT increased more than 3 times without considerably decreasing the hole mobility, compared to the pristine graphene. Also, it has high air stability. This ZnO doping method by atomic layer deposition can be applicable to large scale array of CVD graphene TFT.

Next-generation displays should be transparent and flexible as well as having high resolution and frame number. The main factor for active matrix organic light emitting diode and next-generation displays is the development of TFTs (thin-film transistors) with high mobility and large area uniformity. The TFTs used for transparent displays are mainly oxide TFT that has oxide semiconductor as channel layer. Zinc-oxide based substances such as indium-gallium-zinc-oxide has attracted attention in the display industry. In this paper, the mobility improvement of low cost oxide TFT is studied for fast operating next-generation displays by overcoming disadvantages of amorphous silicon TFT that has low mobility and poly silicon TFT that requires expensive equipment for complex process and doping process.

A-Si:H and poly-Si TFT characteristics were investigated using an inverted staggered type TFT. The poly-Si films were achieved by various anneal techniques ; isothermal, RTA, and excimer laser anneal. The TFT on as-grown a-Si:H exhibited a low field effect mobility, transconductance, and high gate threshold voltage. Some films were annealed at temperatures from $200^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$. The TFT on poly-Si showed an improved $I_{on}/I_{off}$ ratio of $10^6$, reduced gate threshold voltage, and increased field effect mobility by three orders. Inverter operation was examined to verify logic circuit application using the poly-Si TFTs.

25㎛ 두께의 폴리이미드 박핀 기판을 glass 기판에 부착하여 최대 온도 150℃에서 비정질 실리콘 TFT를 제작하였다. 본 논문은 plastic 기판 위에 TFT가 제작되는 공정 절차를 요약하고 glass 위에 제작된 TFT와 ON/OFF 전달특성과 전계효과 이동도를 서로 비교해 보았다. a-SiN:H 코팅층은 plastic 기판의 표면 거칠기를 감소시키는 중요한 역할을 하여 TFT의 누설전류를 감소시키고 전계효과 이동도를 증가시켰다. 따라서 a-SiN:H 코팅층을 이용하여 plastic 기판에 양철의 TFT를 제작하였다.

Previously, crystallization of a-Si:H films on glass substrates were limited to anneal temperature below 600.deg. C, over 10 hours to avoid glass shrinkage. Our study indicates that the crystallization is strongly influenced by anneal temperature and weakly affected by anneal duration time. Because of the high temperature process and nonconducting substrate requirements for poly-Si TFTs, the employed substrates were limited to quartz, sapphire, and oxidized Si wafer. We report on poly-Si TFT's using high temperature anneal on a Si:H/Mo structures. The metal Mo substrate was stable enough to allow 1000.deg. C anneal. A novel TFT fabrication was achieved by using part of the Mo substrate as drain and source ohmic contact electrode. The as-grown a-Si:H TFT was compared to anneal treated poly-Si TFT'S. Defect induced trap states of TFT's were examined using the thermally stimulated current (TSC) method. In some case, the poly-Si grain boundaries were passivated by hydrogen. A-SI:H and poly-Si TFT characteristics were investigated using an inverted staggered type TFT. The poly -Si films were achieved by various anneal techniques; isothermal, RTA, and excimer laser anneal. The TFT on as grown a-Si:H exhibited a low field effect mobility, transconductance, and high gate threshold voltage. Some films were annealed at temperatures from 200 to >$1000^{\circ}C$ The TFT on poly-Si showed an improved $I_on$$I_off$ ratio of $10_6$, reduced gate threshold voltage, and increased field effect mobility by three orders. Inverter operation was examined to verify logic circuit application using the poly Si TFTs.
