Origin of Low-Frequency Noise in the Low Drain Current Range of Bottom-Gate Amorphous IGZO Thin-Film Transistors

Abstract: The low-frequency noise of bottom-gate amorphous IGZO thin-film transistors is investigated in the low drain current range. The noise spectra show generation-recombination (g-r) noise at drain currents I d < 5 nA, attributed to bulk traps located in a thin layer of the IGZO close to the conducting channel. At higher drain currents, a pure 1/f noise is observed. It is shown that the carrier number fluctuations are responsible for the 1/f noise due to trapping/detrapping of carriers in slow oxide traps, located … Show more

“…In IGZO TFTs, when the device is in the subthreshold region and the drain current is below 5 nA, the generation−recombination noise caused by the bulk traps in IGZO may dominate the noise spectra. 18 However, in this case, the drain current is more than 10 μA, and the device is in the saturation region instead of the subthreshold region. It is not likely that the IGZO bulk trap is the origin of the generation−recombination noise.…”

“…In this Chapter, we present the noise properties of bottom-gate a-IGZO TFTs in the low drain current range, where the effect of the series resistance is negligible. The physical origin of the measured g-r noise arising from single trap level and 1/f noise is discussed [61].…”
