Abstract

Thin-film transistors (TFTs) utilizing a TiZnSnO (TZTO) channel layer were fabricated by using a solution process. The effect of annealing temperature on the device performance of the TZTO TFTs was investigated. TFTs with nanocrystalline TZTO films exhibited a better device performance than those with amorphous TZTO films. The on/off current ratio of the TZTO TFTs annealed at 600 °C was as large as 4.2 × 10 6. The field-effect mobility (μ FE) of 4.1 cm 2/Vs and subthreshold swing of 1.2 V/decade were achieved.
