TLDR
In this paper, the authors fabricated ZnO thin-film transistors by rf magnetron sputtering on Si substrates held near room temperature, and the best devices had field effect mobility of more than 2 cm2/V and an on/off ratio>106.
Abstract
We fabricated ZnO thin-film transistors by rf magnetron sputtering on Si substrates held near room temperature. The best devices had field-effect mobility of more than 2 cm2/V s and an on/off ratio>106. These ZnO films had resistivity ∼105 ohm cm, with high optical transparency (>80% for wavelength >400 nm), and compressive stress <0.5 GPa. The combination of transparency in the visible, excellent transistor characteristics, and low-temperature processing makes ZnO thin-film transistors attractive for flexible electronics on temperature sensitive substrates.

Organic-inorganic hybrid materials as semiconducting channels in thin-film field-effect transistors

TL;DR: A thin-film field-effect transistor having an organic-inorganic hybrid material as the semiconducting channel was demonstrated and molecular engineering of the organic and inorganic components of the hybrids is expected to further improve device performance for low-cost thin- film transistors.
