摘要
In this letter the stability of transparent thin-film transistors (TTFTs) based on the ZnO-SnO2 (ZTO) material system is investigated. Bottom-gate devices have been subject to electrical stress via a gate-source bias of 10 V and a drain-source bias of 10 V leading to a drain-source current of 188 mu A. In optimized TTFTs with a composition of [Zn]: [Sn] = 36:64 the relative change of the saturated field effect mobility was less than 1% and the threshold voltage shift was about 320 mV after 1000 hours of operation. This extraordinary stability of ZTO TTFTs underlines their suitability as drivers in active matrix OLED displays. (c) 2007 WILEYNCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
