High Field-Effect Mobility Two-Channel InGaZnO Thin-Film Transistors for Low-Voltage Operation

In this study, two-channel thin-film transistors (TC TFTs) using sputtered-deposited amorphous indium-gallium-zinc oxide (a-IGZO) as a channel layer and atomic-layer-deposition Al₂O₃ as gate insulator (GI) are proposed for wearable and portable device application. Symmetric-TC (S-TC) TFT structure consisted of conventional bottom gate (BG) TFT stacked on top of top gate (TG) TFT. Asymmetric-TC (A-TC) TFT contained BG TFT with tandem structure on the TG TFT. It was shown that the TC TFTs exhibited excellent performance such as high field-effect mobility ( $μ_{FE}$ ) and on/off current ratio ( $I_{t{on/off}}$ ) at low voltages (
