Abstract
A multithreshold voltage amorphous indium- gallium-zinc-oxide (a-IGZO) thin-film transistor (TFT) technology based on the anodic oxidation (anodization) technique is demonstrated. It is shown that the characteristics of the a-IGZO channel layer can be considerably tailored by the anodization treatment. As a result, the threshold voltage of the a-IGZO TFTs depends on the anodization voltage, making it possible to fabricate both depletion and enhancement mode TFTs on the same substrate. The secondary ion mass spectrometry result shows that the oxygen content is noticeably increased in the anodized a-IGZO film, suggesting that the dependence of the threshold voltage on the anodization treatment is attributed to the anodization-induced reduction of oxygen vacancy concentration in the channel region, which also leads to an alleviated Vth shift under negative bias illumination stress in the anodized devices.
