Abstract :
A new type of polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin-film transistors (TFTs) with self-aligned metal electrodes (SAME) is systematically characterized. New device features different from conventional poly-Si TFTs are found, and are attributed to the presence of Schottky barriers at the channel ends.
