The thermal annealing effect on electrical performances of a-Si:H TFT fabricated on a metal foil substrate

  • Published : 2007.08.27

Abstract

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon thin film transistors (a-Si:H TFTs) were fabricated on a flexible metal substrate at $150\;^{\circ}C$. To increase the stability of the flexible a-Si:H TFTs, they were thermally annealed at $230\;^{\circ}C$. The field effect mobility was reduced because of the strain in a- Si:H TFT under thermal annealing.
