Abstract

This paper presents a low-temperature solution-processed passivation material based on polysilsesquioxane (PSQ) which greatly improves electrical performance and stability of solution-processed amorphous InZnO (a-IZO) thin-film transistors (TFTs). PSQ-passivated TFTs exhibited maximum mobilities of 6.02 cm2 V−1 s−1 with the smallest threshold voltage shift of 2.8 V after positive bias stress test. We showed that hydrogen-related ions from PSQ passivation help passivate oxygen vacancies, thus improving the percolation path in a-IZO channel. Moreover, PSQ-passivated TFTs showed minimal change after being subjected to humidity stress. These results demonstrate the ability of low-temperature PSQ passivation as an effective barrier against atmospheric effects.
