Abstract
The group IV elements doped ZnO thin-film transistors (TFTs)
were deposited by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering on
${SiO}_{2}/{Si}$
substrates at 150
$^{\circ}{C}$
. The influence of
the dopant concentrations on the device performance was examined.
Device characteristics such as threshold voltage
$({\rm V}_{\rm TH})$
were modulated and field effect mobility and saturated
current could be enhanced by tuning dopant concentration. Moreover,
the negative bias stress was applied so that the reliability of the
TFTs could be evaluated, the shift of
${\rm V}_{\rm TH}$
for Ge-doped
TFTs is smaller than that of other TFTs, and therefore, Ge doping
may help to improve the bias stability of ZnO TFTs.
