{"doi":"10.1109/ted.2023.3284803","title":"A Comprehensive Large Signal, Small Signal, and Noise Model for IGZO Thin Film Transistor Circuits","abstract":"We report a new physics-based model for dual-gate amorphous-indium gallium zinc oxide (a-IGZO) thin film transistors (TFTs) which we developed and fine-tuned through experimental implementation and benchtop characterization. We fabricated and characterized a variety of test patterns, including a-IGZO TFTs with varying gate widths (100– <inline-formula xmlns:mml=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\" xmlns:xlink=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink\"> <tex-math notation=\"LaTeX\">$1000~\\mu \\text{m}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> ) and channel lengths (5– <inline-formula xmlns:mml=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\" xmlns:xlink=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink\"> <tex-math notation=\"LaTeX\">$50~\\mu \\text{m}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> ), transmission-line-measurement patterns and ground–signal–ground (GSG) radio frequency (RF) patterns. We modeled the contact resistance as a function of bias, channel area, and temperature, and captured all operating regimes, used physics-based modeling adjusted for empirical data to capture the TFT characteristics including ambipolar subthreshold currents, graded interbias-regime current changes, threshold and flat-band voltages, the interface trap density, the gate leakage currents, the noise, and the relevant small signal parameters. To design high-precision circuits for biosensing, we validated the dc, small signal, and noise characteristics of the model. We simulated and fabricated a two-stage common source amplifier circuit with a common drain output buffer and compared the measured and simulated gain and phase performance, finding an excellent fit over a frequency range spanning 10 kHz–10 MHz.","journal":"IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices","year":2023,"id":365852,"datarank":0.0,"base_score":0.0,"endowment":0.0,"self_citation_contribution":0.0,"citation_network_contribution":0.0,"self_endowment_contribution":0.0,"citer_contribution":0.0,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":6,"citer_count":0,"citers_with_citation_signal":0,"citers_with_endowment":0,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":0.8833,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":true,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":"2023-01-01","fair_score":null,"fair_percentile":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":252411,"name":"Shadi A.
