The Mechanism of the Photostability Enhancement of Thin-Film Transistors Based on Solution-Processed Oxide Semiconductors Doped with Tetravalent Lanthanides.

ABSTRACT: The applications of thin-film transistors (TFTs) based on oxide semiconductors are limited due to instability under negative bias illumination stress (NBIS). Here, we report TFTs based on solution-processed In₂O₃ semiconductors doped with Pr⁴⁺ or Tb⁴⁺, which can effectively improve the NBIS stability. The differences between the Pr⁴⁺-doped In₂O₃ (Pr:In₂O₃) and Tb⁴⁺-doped In₂O₃ (Tb:In₂O₃) are investigated in detail. The undoped In₂O₃ TFTs with different annealing temperatures exhibit poor NBIS stability with serious turn-on voltage shift (ΔV_on). After doping with Pr⁴⁺/Tb⁴⁺, the
