摘要
This paper investigates the illuminated behaviors of InGaZnO thin film transistors with and without a SiOx passivation. For the passivated device, more interface states were generated during SiOx passivation layer deposition by plasma-enhanced-chemical-vapor-deposition. The enhanced trap-assisted photoexcited hole generation induces source side barrier lowering and causes an apparent subthreshold stretch-out phenomenon. However, for the unpassivated device, the fact that the threshold voltage shift in ambient oxygen is lower than in vacuum under light illumination suggests oxygen desorption and readsorption occurs simultaneously, which is consistent with the accelerated recovery rate in oxygen ambiance.
