Thin film transistors (TFTs) fabricated on flexible and large area substrates have been studied with great interest due to their future applications. Recent studies have developed new semiconductors such as a-SiGe:H for fabrication of high performance TFTs. These films have important advantages, including deposition at low temperatures and low pressures, and higher carrier mobilities. Due to these advantages, the a-SiGe:H films can be used in the fabrication of TFTs. In this work, we present an analytical drain current model for a-SiGe:H TFTs considering density of states and free charges, which describes the current behavior at sub-and above- threshold region. In addition, 2D numerical simulations of a-SiGe:H TFTs are developed. The results of the analytical drain current model agree well with those of the 2D numerical simulations. For all characteristics of the drain current curves, the average absolute error of the analytical model is close to 5.3%. This analytical drain current model can be useful to estimate the performance of a-SiGe:H TFTs for applications in large area electronics.

For ultra-thin body polycrystalline silicon thin film transistors, the surface potential distribution model, in the linear region, based on the analytical channel potential (CP) approximation is presented without or with the interface charge, respectively. For the purpose of simplifying the process of the solution and with the merit of the clear physical picture, both the surface potential distribution models in the linear region are developed, attributed to the deduction of the analytical CP approximation, by solving one-dimensional Poisson’s equation and applying the Gauss’s law at the poly-Si/oxide interface. Furthermore, the quantitative conditions for the model validity are also developed for both surface potential distribution models. Under these proposed quantitative conditions, both models are verified by the two-dimensional-device simulation on the normalized channel distance under various gate voltages, drain voltages, channel lengths and various areal interface charge densities for the consideration of the interface charge.
