摘要
The stability and reliability of oxide-semiconductor TFTs were investigated. The contact material to the oxide semiconductor affected the thermal stability of the TFT, and a molybdenum-contact source/drain showed good stability. And the passivating film and TFT structure affected the stability against bias stress and humidity stress, and dc-sputtered Al2O3 passivation and fully covered channel structure with an etching stopper or source/drain showed good reliability. Moreover, high photostability was confirmed by the bias-enhanced photo-irradiation stress test. An 11.7-in.-diagonal qHD AMOLED display was demonstrated to provide an applicable solution for a large-sized OLED and an ultra-high-definition LCD-TV mass production.
