Reduction of persistent photoconductivity in ZnO thin film transistor-based UV photodetector

We report a ZnO-based thin film transistor UV photodetector with a back gate configuration. The thin-film transistor (TFT) aspect ratio W/L is 150 lm/5 lm and has a current on-off ratio of 10. The detector shows UV-visible rejection ratio of 10 and cut-off wavelength of 376 nm. The device has low dark current of 5 10 14 A. The persistent photoconductivity is suppressed through oxygen plasma tre...

Organic Thin-Film Transistor (OTFT)-Based Sensors

Organic thin film transistors have been a popular research topic in recent decades and have found applications from flexible displays to disposable sensors. In this review, we present an overview of some notable articles reporting sensing applications for organic transistors with a focus on the most recent publications. In particular, we concentrate on three main types of organic transistor-bas...

Concept of a thin film memory transistor based on ZnO nanoparticles insulated by a ligand shell.

In this work, we report on the synthesis and the electrical properties of ZnO nanoparticles, which differ in their organic shell. The introduction of a 2-ethylhexanoate shell instead of a common acetate shell has an impact on the accessible size of the ZnO nanoparticles and changes the electrical properties of thin films in transistors. While acetate covered ZnO particles behave as a semiconduc...

ZnO-based transparent thin-film transistors

Highly transparent ZnO-based thin-film transistors ~TFTs! are fabricated with optical transmission ~including substrate! of ;75% in the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. Current– voltage measurements indicate n-channel, enhancement-mode TFT operation with excellent drain current saturation and a drain current on-to-off ratio of ;10. Threshold voltages and channel mobilities of de...
