GOLDD 구조를 갖는 LTPS TFT 소자의 전기적 특성 비교분석

The electrical characteristic of the conventional self-aligned polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) TFTs are known to present several undesired effects such as large leakage current, kink effect and hot-carrier effects. In this paper, LTPS TFTs with different GOLDD length were fabricated and investigated the effect of the GOLDD. GOLDD length of 1, 1.5 and $2{\mu}m$ were used, while the thickness of the gate dielectrics($SiN_x/SiO_2$) was fixed at 65nm(40nm/25nm). The electrical characteristics show that the kink effect is reduced at the LTPS TFTs, and degradation from the hot-carrier effect was also decreased by increasing GOLDD length.
