Abstract

In this research, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is proposed as a dopant for indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) to improve the electrical characteristics of IGZO TFT. Especially, PTFE is incorporated in the back channel region of IGZO TFT and this leads to improved electrical stability against positive bias stress (PBS) and negative bias illumination stress (NBIS). When compared with conventional IGZO TFT, the threshold voltage shifts of PTFE doped IGZO TFT after PBS and NBIS tests are drastically improved from 4.94 to 1.18 V and 16.63 to 6.31 V, respectively.
