Abstract

The threshold voltage (VT) is the most important parameter in semiconductor devices. To control the VT of the thin-film transistors (TFTs), we propose heterojunction structure of p-type Tellurium (Te) and n-type Aluminum-Doped Indium-Zinc-Tin- Oxide (Al:IZTO) which acts as electron blocking layer and carrier transporting layer, respectively. We investigate the effect of adding the heterojunction layer on the Al:IZTO and demonstrate VT shift up to +20V by adjusting the thickness and single/double deposition of the heterojunction Te layer.
