Abstract

Thin-film transistors (TFT) were fabricated at room-temperature (RT) utilizingzinc oxide (ZnO) channel and indium molybdenum oxide (IMO) electrodes. Thecommon bottom-gate TFTs were fabricated on commercially available thermalsilicon oxide (100 nm thick) coated silicon wafers. A total of 100 devices weremade in a 1 inch square area as 10 × 10 matrix, by varying the channelwidth and length, between 5 µm and 300 µm. Output and transfercharacteristics of the fabricated devices were extracted from a semiconductorparameter analyzer. A threshold voltage (V Th) of 10 V and an I ON/I OFF ratio of 1 × 10-5 were obtained. The impact ofchannel dimensions on the device performance was investigated, confirming thatthe saturation current (I sat) is directly proportional to the channel width (W), andinversely proportional to channel length (L), in agreement withfield effect device theory.
