Abstract

We investigated copper oxides for use as an active layer of p-channel field-effect thin-film transistors (TFTs). Cu2 O thin films deposited at room temperature using rf magnetron sputtering were transformed to a CuO phase after an annealing treatment in air above 200 °C. The optical bandgaps of the Cu2 O and CuO were 2.44 and 1.41 eV, respectively. The bottom gate structured TFTs fabricated using CuO active layers operated in a p-type enhancement mode with an on/off ratio of ∼ 104 and field-effect mobility of 0.4 cm2 /V·s.
