Their crystal structures, optical transparency,chemical states and surface morphologies, along with the electrical properties, were dependent on Ga contents and annealing temperatures. The optimized GTO channel layer was applied in the high-k Al2O3 thin film transistor(TFT) with a low operation voltage of 2 V, a maximum field-effect mobility of 69 cm^2 V^-1 s^-1, a subthreshold swing(SS) of 76 mV dec^-1, a threshold voltage of 0.67 V and an on-off current ratio of 1.8×10^7. The solution-processed amorphousGTO-TFTs would promote the development of low-consumption, low-cost and high performance In-free TFT devices.展开更多
