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.

Optical-reconfigurable carbon nanotube and indium-tin-oxide complementary thin-film transistor logic gates

TL;DR: A hybrid integration of p-channel carbon nanotube (CNT) and n-channel junctionless indium-tin-oxide (ITO) TFTs using a simple and cost-effective shadow mask-assisted fabrication process suggests that introducing optical-modulation to the logic gates could increase the functionalities compared with the traditional electrically driven counterparts.
