Abstract
This work investigates the effects of O2 plasma treatments on the performances of back-channel-etched (BCE) a-IGZO TFT. Results indicate that the O2 plasma treatment significantly improves the subthreshold swing (SS) and the performance stability under the negative gate bias stress. It is suggested that the improvement be attributed to the reduction of indium (In) and the defect state at the back channel surface.
