Positive gate bias stress-induced hump-effect in elevated-metal metal–oxide thin film transistors Project supported by the Science and Technology Program of Suzhou City, China (Grant No. SYG201538) and the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant No. 61574096). |
(color online) (a) Plane view of the device composed of a main transistor and two edge parasitic transistors. (b) Positive charges trapping at the back-channel interface and/or into the passivation induce the transfer characteristic to negatively shift, while more positive charges trapped at the edges lead to the formation of the hump. |
