摘要: This study reports on the fabrication of thin-film transistors (TFTs) with transparent zinc oxide (ZnO) semiconductors serving as active channel and silicon dioxide (SiO2) gate insulator. The ZnO films were deposited by radiofrequency magnetron sputtering at room temperature. Moreover, effects thickness structural pulse current–voltage characteristics TFTs using a bottom configuration investigated. As increased, crystalline quality conductance enhanced. electrical exhibited field-effect mobilities 8.36 cm2/Vs to 16.40 on-to-off current ratios 108 107 for layer 45 nm 70 nm, respectively. threshold voltage was in range 10 V 31 thicknesses from 35 low deposition processing temperatures make these suitable flexible substrates.
