Abstract :
Thin-film transistors based on anodized indium-tin-oxide (ITO) active layer and anodic tantalum oxide (Ta2O5) gate dielectric were investigated. The electrical and optical properties of ITO film can be affected by an anodization treatment. The anodized ITO TFT shows an on/off current ratio of 108, a saturation mobility of 28.8 cm2V-1s-1, a subthreshold swing of 0.51 V/dec, and a threshold voltage of -2.5 V It is also shown that the ITO film shows higher resistivity and porous structure after anodized at various anodization voltage Va. Also, the surface of the ITO film becomes less porous and the resistivity rises as the anodization current density Ja increases.
