“…In the case of Ta 2 O 5 and Compared to other processing routes such as sol-gel, 21,22,207,210,212 sputtering 209,211,214,215,217 and anodization, 21 ALD offers many advantages because of its self limiting chemical reaction: (i) accurate film thickness control (in subnanometer); (ii) good uniformity over large area (up to many inches size) and reproducibility; and (iii) high film quality at low deposition temperature that is well compatible with plastic substrates. 208,213,218 The study on the influence of oxygen plasma on device performance will be carried out through various exposure times for plasma treatment and a series of (negative and positive) gate bias stress measurement. It is found that using plasma-treated HfO 2 realized not only higher mobility but also improved resistance to gate bias stress, as well as the tunability of threshold voltage.…”
