AbstractWe have successfully used self-aligned Amorphous Si Thin-Film Transistors, fabricated by a laser doping/annealing process, to construct dynamic shift register circuits, which can be used as gate-line drivers or in other peripheral circuits for flat-panel displays and imagers. Taking advantage of easily scaling down the TFT channel length in a self-aligned process, much higher circuit speeds can be achieved compared to that of circuits using conventional TFTs. We have successfully demonstrated a four-phase dynamic shift register, operating at a clock speed higher that 250 kHz (1 μs for each clock phase) built on 3 μm channel length TFTs. This new technology opens up possibilities for integrating peripheral circuits in flat-panel displays and imagers based on a-Si TFTs.

ABSTRACTConstraint theory developed for bulk glasses and recently applied to thin films and single crystalline Si (C-Si) dielectric interfaces is extended in this paper to a-Si:H and polycrystalline-Si (poly-Si) dielectric interfaces in TFTs where it provides guidelines for device optimization. The constraining effects of network bonding forces are a linear function of the average bonding coordination, Nav. Nav ∼ 3 separates low-defect density networks as in Si02 (Nav =2.67), from highly-defective networks such as non-hydrogenated Si3N4 (Nay = 3.43). Nay ∼ 3 also separates device-quality from highly-defective Si-dielectric interfaces. These criteria are applied to Si-Si02 and Si-SiNx:H interfaces that are integral components of TFT devices.
