摘要
The grain boundaries(GBs) have a strong effect on the electric properties of ZnO thin film transistors(TFTs).A novel grain boundary model was developed to analyse the effect.The model was characterized with different angles between the orientation of the grain boundary and the channel direction.The potential barriers formed by the grain boundaries increase with the increase of the grain boundary angle,so the degradation of the transistor characteristics increases.When a grain boundary is close to the drain edge,the potential barrier height reduces,so the electric properties were improved.
