Abstract
- This study investigates the suppressed negative gate bias illumination stress (NBIS) -induced instability of via-type amorphous indium-gallium-zinc-oxide (a-IGZO) thin film transistors (TFTs) with fringe field (FF) structures. The less negative threshold voltage shifts of devices after NBIS are showed when device has larger FF structures. This finding is attributed to more dispersive distribution of photo-generated holes in the width direction of a-IGZO during NBIS, which reduce the hole trapping phenomenon in the front channel interface. The a-IGZO TFT with FF structure is expected to be an effective method to increase the electrical reliability of devices after NBIS.
