The advantage of OTFT technology is that large-area circuits can be manufactured on flexible substrates using a low-cost solution process such as inkjet printing. Compared to silicon-based inorganic semiconductor processes, the process temperature is lower and the process time is shorter, so it can be widely applied to fields that do not require high electron mobility. Materials that have utility as electrode materials include carbon that can be solution-processed, transparent carbon thin films, and metallic nanoparticles, etc. are being studied. Recently, a technology has been developed to facilitate charge injection by coating the surface of the Al electrode with solution-processable titanium oxide (TiOx), which can greatly improve the performance of OTFT. In order to commercialize OTFT technology, an appropriate method is to use a complementary circuit with excellent reliability and stability. For this, insulators and channel semiconductors using organic materials must have stability in the air. In this study, carbon-doped Mo (MoC) thin films were fabricated with different graphite target power densities via unbalanced magnetron sputtering (UBM). The influence of graphite target power density on the structural, surface area, physical, and electrical properties of MoC films was investigated. MoC thin films deposited by the unbalanced magnetron sputtering method exhibited a smooth and uniform surface. However, as the graphite target power density increased, the rms surface roughness of the MoC film increased, and the hardness and elastic modulus of the MoC thin film increased. Additionally, as the graphite target power density increased, the resistivity value of the MoC film increased. In the performance of an organic thin film transistor using a MoC gate electrode, the carrier mobility, threshold voltage, and drain current on/off ratio (I_on/I_off) showed 0.15 cm²/V·s, -5.6 V, and 7.5×10⁴, respectively.

Recently, the growth of ZnO thin film on glass substrate has been investigated extensively for transparent thin film transistor. We have studied the phase transition of ZnO thin films from metal to semiconductor by changing RF power in the deposition process by RF magnetron sputtering system. The structural, electric, and optical properties of the ZnO thin films were investigated. The film deposited with 75 watt of RF power showed n-type semiconductor characteristic having suitable resistivity $-3.56\;{\times}\;10^{+1}\;{\Omega}cm$, carrier concentration $-2.8\;{\times}\;10^{17}\;cm^{-3}$, and mobility $-0.613\;cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$ while other films by 25, 50, 100 watt of RF power closed to metallic films. From the surface analysis (AFM), the number of crystal grain of ZnO thin film increased as RF power increased. The transmittance of the film was over 88% in the visible region regardless of the change in RF power.

본 논문에서는 유기박막트랜지스터용 절연막에 활용코자 플라즈마 중합방법을 이용하여 PMMA 절연막을 제작하였다. 유기트랜지스터 성능향상을 위해 전극구조에 따른 특성을 파악하고자 트랜지스터의 이동도 및 출력특성을 본결과, 상부전극구조의 경우 최대 이동도는 $8{\times}10^{-3}[cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}]$을 보이고 하부전극구조의 경우 $2{\times}10^{-4}[cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}]$의 낮은 이동도 값을 얻었으며, 하부전극구조의 경우 off current값이 증가되는 특성을 볼 수 있다. 그러므로 유기트랜지스터의 전극구조는 상부전극 방식이 좋은 것 알 수 있었다.

The characteristics of the deposited thin films of the zinc oxide (ZnO) at different oxygen pressures will be elucidated in this work. The resistivity of ZnO thin films were dominated by the carrier concentration under high oxygen pressure conditions while controlled by the carrier mobility at low oxygen ambiences. In addition, we will show the characteristics of the transparent ZnO based thin film transistor (TFT) fabricated at a full room temperature process with gate dielectric of gadolinium oxide ($Gd_2O_3$) thin films.

In this study, to get the larger drain current of the device under the same operation condition as the conventional gate dielectric SiNx thin film transistor devices, we introduced new gate dielectric $Ta_2O_5$ thin film which has high dielectric constant $({\sim}25)$ and good electrical reliabilities. For the application for the TFT device, we fabricated the $Ta_2O_5$ gate dielectric TFT on the low-temperature-transformed polycrystalline silicon thin film using the self-aligned implantation processing technology for source/drain and gate doping. The $Ta_2O_5$ gate dielectric TFT showed better electrical performance than SiNx gate dielectric TFT because of the higher dielectric constant.

비정질 InGaZnO 박막 두께가 다른 무접합 트랜지스터를 제작하고 두께에 따른 양과 음의 게이트 스트레스 전압 및 빛을 비춘 상태에서 소자 불안정성을 분석하였다. 채널 박막 두께가 얇을수록 게이트 스트레스 및 빛이 인가된 상태에서 문턱전압 및 드레인 전류 변화가 큰 것을 알 수 있었다. 그 원인을 stretched-exponential 모델과 소자 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 설명하였다. 박막이 얇을수록 캐리어 트랩핑 시간이 짧기 때문에 전자나 홀이 빨리 활성화되는 것과 채널 박막의 뒷부분에서 채널의 수직 전계가 증가하여 전자나 홀을 많이 축적할 수 있는 것으로 설명하였다. IGZO 무접합 트랜지스터 제작에서 채널 박막의 두께를 결정할 때 채널 박막 두께가 얇을수록 소자 불안정성이 큰 것을 고려해야 됨을 알 수 있다.

Organic thin film transitors(OTFT) are of interest for use in broad area electronic applications. And recently organic electroluminescent devices(OELD) have been intensively investigated for using in full-color flat-panel display. We have fabricated inverted-staggered structure OTFTs at lower temperature using the fused-ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon pentacene as the active eletronic material and photoacryl as the organic gate insulator. The field effect mobility is 0.039∼0.17 ㎠/Vs, on-off current ratio is 10$\^$6/, and threshold voltage is -7V. And here we report the study of driving emitting, Ir(ppy)$_3$, phosphorescent OELD with all organic thin film transistor and investigated its electrical characteristics. The OELD with a structure of ITO/TPD/8% Ir(ooy)$_3$ doped in BCP/BCP/Alq$_3$/Li:Al/Al and OTFT with a structure of inverted-stagged Al(gate electrode)/photoacry(gate insulator)/pentacene(p-type organic semiconductor)/ Au(source-drain electrode) were fabricated on the ITP patterned glass substrate. The electrical characteristics are turn-on voltage of -10V, and maximum luminance of about 90 cd/㎡. Device characteristics were quite different with that of only OELD.

We investigated accelerated soft error rate (ASER) in static random access memory (SRAM) cells of thin film transistor (TFT) type. The effects on ASER by cell density, buried nwell structure, operational voltage, and polysilicon-2 layer thickness were examined. The increase in the operational voltage, and the decrease in the density of SRAM cells, respectively, resulted in the decrease of ASER values. The SRAM chips with buried nwell showed lower ASER than those with normal well structure did. The ASER decreased as the test distance from alpha source to the sample increased from $7{\mu}m\;to\;15{\mu}m$. As the polysilicon-2 thickness increased up to $1000\;{\AA}$, the ASER decreased exponentially. In conclusion, the best condition for low soft error rate, which is essential to obtain highly reliable SRAM device, is to apply the buried nwell structure scheme and to fabricate thin film transistors with the thick polysilicon-2 layer
