摘要
In this paper, we report a method to change the threshold voltage of SnO2 and In2O3 nanowire transistors by Ga+ ion irradiation. Unlike the results in earlier reports, the threshold voltages of SnO2 and In2O3 nanowire field-effect transistors (FETs) shift in the negative gate voltage direction after Ga+ ion irradiation. Smaller threshold voltages, achieved by Ga+ ion irradiation, are required for high-performance and low-voltage operation. The threshold voltage shift can be attributed to the degradation of surface defects caused by Ga+ ion irradiation. After irradiation, the current on/off ratio declines slightly, but is still close to similar to 10(6). The results indicate that Ga+ ion beam irradiation plays a vital role in improving the performance of oxide nanowire FETs.
