Abstract

In this study, we developed an amorphous indium-gallium-zinc oxide (α-IGZO) thin-film transistor (TFT) incorporating high-κ Sm2TiO5 gate dielectrics. The high-κ Sm2TiO5 α-IGZO TFT after annealing at 400° C exhibited very good electrical characteristics, such as a high Ion/off ratio of 5.27×107, a high field-effect mobility of 27.8 cm2/V-sec, a low threshold voltage of 0.2 V, and a low subthreshold swing of 136 mV/decade. These results are probably due to the incorporation of Ti into the Sm2O3 film, resulting in the formation of good Sm2TiO5 gate dielectric and low density of interface states at the oxide/channel interface.
