42.1: Invited Paper: Improved Amorphous In‐Ga‐Zn‐O TFTs

TLDR
In this paper, the authors review the features of amorphous In-Ga-Zn-O (a-IGZO) thin-film transistors, as well as circuit operation based on these TFTs.
Abstract
We review the features of amorphous In-Ga-Zn-O (a-IGZO) thin-film transistors (TFTs), as well as circuit operation based on these TFTs. We also report a novel TFT structure which improves environmental stability of the TFT operation by taking full advantage of the a-IGZO properties, where a conventional PECVD a-SiNX:H films serve not only as an effective barrier layer but also as a hydrogen source to form the coplanar source and drain.

Room-temperature fabrication of transparent flexible thin-film transistors using amorphous oxide semiconductors

TL;DR: A novel semiconducting material is proposed—namely, a transparent amorphous oxide semiconductor from the In-Ga-Zn-O system (a-IGZO)—for the active channel in transparent thin-film transistors (TTFTs), which are fabricated on polyethylene terephthalate sheets and exhibit saturation mobilities and device characteristics are stable during repetitive bending of the TTFT sheet.

Hydrogen as a cause of doping in zinc oxide

TL;DR: A first-principles investigation, based on density functional theory, produces strong evidence that hydrogen acts as a source of conductivity: it can incorporate in high concentrations and behaves as a shallow donor.
