This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transparent oxide semiconducting films have continued to receive considerable attention, from a fundamental and application-based point of view, primarily because of their useful fundamental properties. Of particular interest is zinc oxide (ZnO), an n-type semiconductor that exhibits excellent optical, electrical, catalytic and gas-sensing properties, and has many applications in various fields. In this work, thin film transistor (TFT) arrays based on ZnO have been prepared by reactive radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering. Prior to the TFT fabrication, ZnO layers were sputtered on to glass and silicon substrates, and the deposition parameters optimised for electrical resistivities suitable for TFT applications. The sputtering process was carried out at room temperature with no intentional heating. The aim of this work is to prepare ZnO thin films with stable semiconducting electrical properties to be used as the active channel in TFTs; and to understand the role of intrinsic point defects in device performance and stability. The effect of oxygen (O2) adsorption on TFT device characteristics is also investigated. The structural quality of the material (defect type and concentration), electrical and optical properties (transmission/absorption) of semiconductor materials are usually closely correlated. Using the Vienna ab-initio simulation package (VASP), it is predicted that O2 adsorption may influence film transport properties only within a few atomic layers beneath the adsorption site. These findings were exploited to deposit thin films that are relatively stable in atmospheric ambient with improved TFT applications. TFTs incorporating the optimised layer were fabricated and demonstrated very impressive performance metrics, with effective channel mobilities as high as 30 cm2/V-1s-1, on-off current ratios of 107 and sub-threshold slopes of 0.9? 3.2 V/dec. These were found to be dependent on film thickness (~15? 60 nm) and the underlying dielectric (silicon dioxide (SiO2), gadolinium oxide (Gd2O3), yttrium oxide (Y2O3) and hafnium oxide (HfO2)). In this work, prior to sputtering the ZnO layer (using a ZnO target of 99.999 % purity), the sputtering chamber was evacuated to a base pressure ~4 x 10-6 Torr. Oxygen (O2) and argon (Ar) gas (with O2/Ar ratio of varying proportions) were then pumped into the chamber and the deposition process optimised by varying the RF power between 25 and 500 W and the O2/Ar ratio between 0.010 to 0.375. A two-level factorial design technique was implemented to test specific parameter combinations (i.e. RF power and O2/Ar ratio) and then statistical analysis was utilised to map out the responses. The ZnO films were sputtered on glass and silicon substrates for transparency and resistivity measurements, and TFT fabrication respectively. For TFT device fabrication, ZnO films were deposited onto thermally-grown silicon dioxide (SiO2) or a high-k dielectric layer (HfO2, Gd2O3 and Y2O3) deposited by a metal-organic chemical deposition (MOCVD) process. Also, by using ab initio simulation as implemented in the?Vienna ab initio simulation package (VASP)?, the role of oxygen adsorption on the electrical stability of ZnO thin film is also investigated. The results indicate that O2 adsorption on ZnO layers could modify both the electronic density of states in the vicinity of the Fermi level and the band gap of the film. This study is complemented by studying the effects of low temperature annealing in air on the properties of ZnO films. It is speculated that O2 adsorption/desorption at low temperatures (150? 350 0C) induces variations in the electrical resistance, band gap and Urbach energy of the film, consistent with the trends predicted from DFT results.

Book Thin Film Electronics with Novel Materials

Download or read book Thin Film Electronics with Novel Materials written by Yiyang Gong and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Novel materials, including zinc oxide (ZnO) and 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), have been investigated in this dissertation for the realization of high-performance large-area integrated circuits. These novel materials may provide differential advantages over the established large-area thin film technology based on silicon, which has been extensively employed in applications such as large-area flat panel displays, high-speed active matrix thin film circuits, flexible and wearable electronics, etc. The dissertation begins with the discussion of high-performance plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) of ZnO thin films and ZnO thin film transistors (TFTs) with a field effect mobility of ~ 10 to 20 cm2/Vs, which have been demonstrated. Offset-drain ZnO TFTs, which are able to withstand or switch voltage beyond 80 V, have also been demonstrated. These results shed light on the realization of large-area active-matrix circuits beyond the capabilities of the current display industry where high circuit speed or high operation voltage is required. To further improve the performance of ZnO-based electronics, many related materials, including doped ZnO, zinc nitride, and aluminum nitride, have been investigated. Doped ZnO has been proposed as the carrier injection layer that can improve the conductivity of metal-semiconductor contact in ZnO TFTs. Aluminum-doped ZnO thin films have been deposited using triisobutyl aluminum (TIBA) as the dopant precursor instead of trimethyl aluminum (TMA) in order to improve the uniformity of dopant distribution because TIBA has much lower vapor pressure than TMA. AZO thin films with resistivity ~ 10-2 cm have been achieved by PEALD. Besides, aluminum nitride and zinc nitride thin films have also been studied using PEALD. In addition to the showerhead PEALD system, a novel inductively coupled plasma ALD system has been designed and set up that provides RF power up to 500 W in order to generate a highly reactive nitrogen plasma source and enable the deposition of high-quality metal nitride at relatively low temperature. These metal nitride thin films may provide additional building blocks to enhance the speed and thermal stability of ZnO-based thin film devices and circuits.Owing to their excellent electrical and mechanical properties, 2D-TMD thin films have been studied for flexible electronics applications. High quality MoS2 and WS2 thin films have been achieved via mechanical exfoliation and chemical vapor deposition. To fabricate MoS2- and WS2-based TFTs, a 5-step device fabrication process has been developed, which is compatible to both the conventional rigid substrate and the ~ 4.8 nm thick solution-cast polyimide (PI) flexible substrate. The MoS2 and WS2 TFTs fabricated on PI substrate exhibit a field effect mobility of between 1 to 20 cm2/Vs, which is similar to that of those fabricated on rigid silicon substrate. More importantly, extraordinary mechanical strength and stability have been demonstrated for MoS2 and WS2 TFTs fabricated on PI substrate. A reasonably small degradation in device performance has been observed in these flexible 2D-TMD TFTs under static bending to the radius of ~ 2mm and after cyclic bending up to 100,000 cycles. Finally, attempts to create integratable 2D-TMD circuits have been demonstrated. To realize large-area 2D-TMD based circuits, growth of wafer-scale continuous WSe2 thin films has been demonstrated using metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Deposition has been achieved at as low as 400 C, which allows deposition on glass and polymeric substrate and enables the transfer-free fabrication of WSe2 TFTs and circuits on arbitrary platforms. Patterning and post-growth thickness modulation of continuous WSe2 thin film have been demonstrated using CF4 plasma and O2 plasma, whereby high-speed etching and nanometer-scale film thinning can be realized. With the capability of depositing and patterning wafer-scale WSe2 thin films, an array of p-channel WSe2 TFTs have been fabricated with a field effect mobility of ~0.01 cm2/Vs and an on-off ratio greater than 104.

Book Zno Thin Film Electronics For More Than Displays

Download or read book Zno Thin Film Electronics For More Than Displays written by Jose Ramirez and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zinc oxide thin film transistors (TFTs) are investigated in this work for large-area electronic applications outside of display technology. A constant pressure, constant flow, showerhead, plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) process has been developed to fabricate high mobility TFTs and circuits on rigid and flexible substrates at 200 °C. ZnO films and resulting devices prepared by PEALD and pulsed laser deposition (PLD) have been compared. Both PEALD and PLD ZnO films result in densely packed, polycrystalline ZnO thin films that were used to make high performance devices. PEALD ZnO TFTs deposited at 300 °C have a field-effect mobility of ~ 40 cm2/V-s (and > 20 cm2/V-S deposited at 200 °C). PLD ZnO TFTs, annealed at 400 °C, have a field-effect mobility of > 60 cm2/V-s (and up to 100 cm2/V-s). Devices, prepared by either technique, show high gamma-ray radiation tolerance of up to 100 Mrad(SiO2) with only a small radiation-induced threshold voltage shift (VT ~ -1.5 V). Electrical biasing during irradiation showed no enhanced radiation-induced effects. The study of the radiation effects as a function of material stack thicknesses revealed the majority of the radiation-induced charge collection happens at the semiconductor-passivation interface. A simple sheet-charge model at that interface can describe the radiation-induced charge in ZnO TFTs. By taking advantage of the substrate-agnostic process provided by PEALD, due to its low-temperature and excellent conformal coatings, ZnO electronics were monolithically integrated with thin-film complex oxides. Application-based examples where ZnO electronics provide added functionality to complex oxide-based devices are presented. In particular, the integration of arrayed lead zirconate titanate (Pb(Zr, Ti)O3 or PZT) thin films with ZnO electronics for microelectromechanical systems (MEMs) and deformable mirrors is demonstrated. ZnO switches can provide voltage to PZT capacitors with fast charging and slow discharging time constants. Finally, to circumvent fabrication challenges on predetermined complex shapes, like curved mirror optics, a technique to transfer electronics from a rigid substrate to a flexible substrate is used. This technique allows various thin films, regardless of their deposition temperature, to be transferred to flexible substrates. Finally, ultra-low power operation of ZnO TFT gas sensors was demonstrated. The ZnO ozone sensors were optimized to operate with excellent electrical stability in ambient conditions, without using elevated temperatures, while still providing good gas sensitivity. This was achieved by using a post-deposition anneal and by partially passivating the contact regions while leaving the semiconductor sensing area open to the ambient. A novel technique to reset the gas sensor using periodic pulsing of a UV light over the sensor results in less than 25 milliseconds recovery time. A pathway to achieve gas selectivity by using organic thin-film layers as filters deposited over the gas sensors tis demonstrated. The ZnO ozone sensor TFTs and the UV light operate at room temperature with an average power below 1 [mu]W.

Book Zinc Oxide Thin Film Transistors for 3D Microelectronic Applications

Download or read book Zinc Oxide Thin Film Transistors for 3D Microelectronic Applications written by Sang Ha Yoo and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the current semiconductor industry trend deviates from Moore's Law due to quantum limits discovered upon further scaling of technology nodes, efforts are being put into three-dimensional (3D) stacking of semiconductor devices in integrated circuits (ICs). Since its conduction band pathway arises from its spherically shaped s-orbital, zinc oxide (ZnO) is a promising material for technological advancement towards 3D-stacked devices since it can theoretically retain its bulk mobility even if it is processed at a low temperature. Plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) system using weak oxidants was utilized to deposit ZnO at a low temperature ( 200 °C), and ZnO thin-film transistors (TFTs) were fabricated based on this system for this study. This dissertation presents efforts to develop ZnO TFTs that are suitable for 3D electronics applications, focusing on high mobility, high current, and scalability aspects of the device. The relationship between the ZnO TFT mobility and the morphology of PEALD ZnO films is studied with emphasis on the grain size variation of the ZnO films. For the nanocrystalline PEALD ZnO films, no direct relationship between grain size and mobility was discovered from the study. On the other hand, a simple N2O-based PEALD Al2O3 passivation layer that enhances the performance of ZnO TFTs by an order of magnitude is developed. The passivated ZnO TFTs exhibit field-effect mobility 90 cm2/Vs and drive current >450 mA/mm. Multiple mobility extraction methods confirm that the high mobility value calculated for the passivated TFTs is not from measurement artifacts. The high current and mobility of the N2O PEALD passivated ZnO TFTs remain even when the passivation layer is selectively removed. The cause of the mobility boost is postulated to be hydrogen incorporation during the passivation process. The high performance of these devices is of interest for 3D ICs and other applications. Metals of different reactivity and work function are explored to overcome the Schottky barrier present in ZnO TFTs. Oxygen vacancies and zinc interstitials generated from the reaction between contact metal and ZnO semiconductors are believed to serve as the source of increased charge carriers to mimic a doping effect at TFT contacts. In addition, doped contact ZnO TFTs are demonstrated as well. We use PEALD ZnO films as the active layer and ALD ZnO films as the doped layer. The fabrication process of PEALD ZnO TFTs with ALD ZnO doped layer resembles that of back-channel-etched a-Si: H TFTs. An acetic acid-based ZnO etchant is used to controllably back etch the channel layer at a rate of 2 nm/sec to etch away the conductive ALD ZnO layer. The fabricated devices exhibit less dominance by the Schottky barrier at contacts. Ferroelectric field-effect transistors (FeFET) using low-temperature processed boron-doped aluminum nitride (Al1-xBxN; AlBN for simplicity) as the gate dielectric are also developed to serve as memory devices combined with ZnO TFT logic devices. With the help of a stable PEALD Al2O3 layer to prevent gate leakage, fabricated ZnO-AlBN FeFETs demonstrated counter-clockwise hysteresis, which is one of the indications of ferroelectricity present in the device. Double-gated ZnO-AlBN FeFETs are also fabricated to further establish that the devices exhibit polarization behavior with known field line terminations. ZnO TFTs and AlBN FeFETs are of interest to the future 3D microelectronics and ICs.

Book excerpt: While theories based on classical physics have been very successful in helping experimentalists design microelectronic devices, new approaches based on quantum mechanics are required to accurately model nanoscale transistors and to predict their characteristics even before they are fabricated. Advanced Nanoelectronics provides research information on advanced nanoelectronics concepts, with a focus on modeling and simulation. Featuring contributions by researchers actively engaged in nanoelectronics research, it develops and applies analytical formulations to investigate nanoscale devices. The book begins by introducing the basic ideas related to quantum theory that are needed to better understand nanoscale structures found in nanoelectronics, including graphenes, carbon nanotubes, and quantum wells, dots, and wires. It goes on to highlight some of the key concepts required to understand nanotransistors. These concepts are then applied to the carbon nanotube field effect transistor (CNTFET). Several chapters cover graphene, an unzipped form of CNT that is the recently discovered allotrope of carbon that has gained a tremendous amount of scientific and technological interest. The book discusses the development of the graphene nanoribbon field effect transistor (GNRFET) and its use as a possible replacement to overcome the CNT chirality challenge. It also examines silicon nanowire (SiNW) as a new candidate for achieving the downscaling of devices. The text describes the modeling and fabrication of SiNW, including a new top-down fabrication technique. Strained technology, which changes the properties of device materials rather than changing the device geometry, is also discussed. The book ends with a look at the technical and economic challenges that face the commercialization of nanoelectronics and what universities, industries, and government can do to lower the barriers. A useful resource for professionals, researchers, and scientists, this work brings together state-of-the-art technical and scientific information on important topics in advanced nanoelectronics.

Book A New Generation of Organic Light Emitting Materials and Devices

Download or read book A New Generation of Organic Light Emitting Materials and Devices written by Shi-Jian Su and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2019-11-27 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the invention of the first efficient organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) by C. T. Tang and S. VanSlyke, OLEDs have attracted close interest as a promising candidate for next-generation full-color displays and future solid-state lighting sources because of a number of advantages like high brightness and contrast, high luminous efficiency, fast response time, wide viewing angle, low power consumption, and light weight. The recombination of holes and electrons under electrical excitation typically generates 25% singlet excitons and 75% triplet excitons. For traditional fluorescent OLEDs, only 25% singlet excitons can be utilized to emit light, while the other 75% triplet excitons are generally wasted through nonradiative transition. By adopting noble metal phosphorescent complexes, an internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of 100% could be achieved by utilizing both the 25% singlet excitons and 75% triplet excitons. However, these phosphors usually contain nonrenewable and highcost iridium or platinum noble metals. Most recently, unity IQE has been readily achieved through noble metal-free purely organic emitters, such as thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) emitters, hybridized local and charge-transfer state (HLCT) “hot exciton” emitters, binary- or ternary-mixed donor-acceptor exciplex emitters, and neutral p radical emitters, etc. In addition, the combination of conventional p-type hole-transport and n-type electron-transport materials in an appropriate device structure can also provide an uncommon efficiency. Both strategies are essential and attractive for high-performance and low-cost full-color displays and white OLED applications. This Research Topic mainly focus on this new generation of organic light-emitting materials and devices, including design, synthesis, and characterization of light-emitting organic molecules with tunable excited states, and their structural, electrical, and photophysical properties. Contributions relating to carrier transporting materials and corresponding device engineering are also included. Two mini reviews and thirteen original research articles by recognized academic experts in their respective fields are collected in this Research Topic, which will offer a broad perspective of noble metal-free organic light emitters, including conventional fluorescent emitters, TADF emitters, HLCT emitters, exciplex emitters, aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogens, and their corresponding devices. We believe this eBook should attract the attention of multidisciplinary researchers in the fields of materials science, organic synthesis, and electronic device engineering, especially for those engaged in OLED-related areas.
