Abstract
Research towards thin film circuits is one of the most attractive directions of the large-area electronics and flexible electronics. In this work, the research on TFT shift register circuit which is critical for system integration on panel (SOP) is presented. The whole circuit is composed of MILC PMOS poly-Si TFTs. The TFT device exhibited field-effect mobility of 65.21cm2/Vs, threshold voltage of -3.5V and sub-threshold swing of 0.56V/dec. Some special design considerations were adopted to improve the robustness of the circuits. The whole shift register is composed of as many as 180 stages and exhibited well performance with frame frequency from 22Hz to 220Hz at the power supply voltage of 11V. No signal attenuation and distortion appeared from the first to the final stage. The effect of bootstrapping and dynamic behavior is analyzed. The fabrication and reliability analysis are also discussed in this paper. Overall, the high performance driver circuits based on our MILC PMOS process are possible and have the potential in the application of SOP.
