We report on the fabrication of ZnO-based thin-film transistor (TFT) inverters with top and bottom gate structures with $Al_2O_3$ dielectrics grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD). Since the top gate ZnO-based TFT showed somewhat lower field effect mobility than that of the bottom gate device, our ZnO-based TFT inverters were designed with identical dimensions for both channels. This TFT inverter device demonstrated an high voltage gain at a low supply voltage of 5 V and clear dynamic behavior.

ZnO nano film for transparent thin film transistors is prepared by injection type source delivery system of atomic layer deposition. By using this delivery system the source delivery pulse time can dramatically be reduced to 0.005s in ALD system. ZnO nanofilms obtained at $150^{\circ}C$ are characterized.

In this work, a junctionless transistor with different film thickness of amorphous InGaZnO has been fabricated and it's instability has been analyzed with different film thickness under positive and negative gate stress as well as light illumination. It was found that the threshold voltage shift and the variation of drain current have been increased with decrease of film thickness under the condition of gate stress and light illumination. The reasons for the observed results have been explained by stretched-exponential model and device simulation. Due to the reduced carrier trapping time with decrease of film thickness, electrons and holes can be activated easily. Due to the increase of vertical channel electric field reaching the back interface with decrease of film thickness, more electrons and holes can be accumulated in back interface. When one decides the film thickness for the fabrication of junctionless transistor, the more significant device instability with decrease of film thickness should be consdered.

Zinc oxide nanocrystals are attractive candidates for a solution-processable semiconductor for high performance thin film field effect transistors. We have studied ZnO thin film transistor fabricated by solution process and have improved $V_{th}$ by controlling the ZnO ink additives. Synthesized ZnO nanoparticles of 30nm were dispersed in solvent to make the ZnO ink. ZnO ink was spin coated on silicon wafer and after heat treatment electrodes were patterned.

KrF 펄스 레이저 증착법(pulsed laser deposition: PLD)으로 ZnO 박막을 증착하여 평판 디스플레이 소자 구동용 박막 트랜지스터(thin film transistor) 소자를 제작하였다. 전도성이 높은 실리콘웨이퍼(c-Si, 하부전극) 기판 위에 LPCVD 법으로 silicon nitride 박막을 절연막으로 형성하고, 다양한 공정 조건에서 펄스 레이저 증착법으로 제작한 ZnO 박막을 증착하여 채널층으로 하였으며, Al 박막을 증착하고 패터닝하여 소스 및 드레인 전극으로 하였다. ZnO 박막의 증착 시에 기판 온도를 다양하게 조절하고 산소 분압을 변화시켜 ZnO 박막의 특성을 조절하였다. 제작된 박막의 표면특성은 AFM(atomic force microscopy)로 분석하고, 결정특성은 XRD(X-ray diffraction)로 조사하였다. ZnO 박막의 전기적 특성은 Hall-van der Pauw 법으로 측정하였고, 광학 투과도(optical transparency)를 UV-visible photometer로 조사하였다. ZnO-TFT 소자는 $10^6$ 수준의 on-off ratio와 $2.4{\sim}6.1cm^2/V{\cdot}s$의 전계효과이동도(field effect mobility)를 보였다.

We report the characteristics of thin-film transistor (TFT) to make the bi-channel structure with stacked $Mg_{0.1}Zn_{0.9}O$ (Mg= 10 at.%) and ZnO. The ZnO and $Mg_{0.1}ZnO_{0.9}O$ thin films were deposited by radio frequency (RF) co-sputter system onto the thermally oxidized silicon substrate. A total thickness of active layer was 50 nm. Firstly, the ZnO thin films were deposited to control the thickness from 5 nm to 30 nm. Sequentially, the $Mg_{0.1}ZnO_{0.9}O$ thin films were deposited to change from 45 nm to 20 nm. The bi-layer TFT shows more improved properties than the single layer TFT. The field effect mobility and subthreshold slope for $Mg_{0.1}ZnO_{0.9}O$/ZnO-TFT are $7.40cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$ and 0.24 V/decade at the ZnO thickness of 10 nm, respectively.

We have observed electrical properties of ZnO thin films for the fabrication of transparent thin film transistor. ZnO thin films were deposited on $Al_2O_3$(0001) substrate at various temperatures by pulsed laser deposition(PLD). The third of harmonic(355nm) Nd:YAG laser was used for pulsed laser deposition. X-ray diffraction(XRD), field emission-scanning electron microscope(FE-SEM), and photoluminescence were used to characterize physical and optical properties of ZnO thin film.. The results indicated the ZnO film showed good optical properties as increasing temperatures, with low FWHM of exciton-related peak and XRD(0002) peak.

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.

In this paper, we proposed ZnO trench Static Induction Transistor(SIT). Because The compound semiconductor had superior thermal characteristics, ZnO and SiC power devices is next generation power semiconductor devices. We carried out modeling of ZnO SIT with 2-D device and process simulator. As a result of modeling, we obtained 340V breakdown voltage. The channel thickness was 3um and the channel doping concentration is 1e17cm-3. And we carried out thermal characteristics, too.
