Abstract
In this study, the electrical performance and bias stability of InSnO/a-InGaZnO (ITO/a-IGZO) heterojunction thin-film transistors (TFTs) are investigated. Compared to a-IGZO TFTs, the mobility (µFE) and bias stability of ITO/a-IGZO heterojunction TFTs are enhanced. The band alignment of the ITO/a-IGZO heterojunction is analyzed by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). A conduction band offset (∆EC) of 0.5 eV is observed in the ITO/a-IGZO heterojunction, resulting in electron accumulation in the formed potential well. Meanwhile, the ∆EC of the ITO/a-IGZO heterojunction can be modulated by nitrogen doping ITO (ITON), which can affect the carrier confinement and transport properties at the ITO/a-IGZO heterojunction interface. Moreover, the carrier concentration distribution at the ITO/a-IGZO heterointerface is extracted by means of TCAD silvaco 2018 simulation, which is beneficial for enhancing the electrical performance of ITO/a-IGZO heterojunction TFTs.
