Abstract

We have fabricated the nc-Si, IGZO based nonvolatile memory TFTs using mobile protons, which can be generated by simple hydrogen insertion process via H-NB treatment at room temperature. The TFT devices above exhibited reproducible hysteresis behavior, stable ON/OFF switching, and non-volatile memory characteristics. Also executed hydrogen treatment in order to figure out the difference of mobile proton generation between PECVD and our modified H-NB CVD. The room temperature proton-insertion process can reveal flexible inorganic based all-in-one display panel including driving circuit and memory circuit.
