Abstract :
In this study, a new TFT structure which includes the raised source/drain (RSD) and ONO offset structure above source and drain area, has been proposed. The RSD and ONO offset structure can effectively reduce the electric field near the channel/drain region. The lower electric field of the proposed TFT will be useful to reduce the leakage current and alleviate the kink effect. Therefore, the new TFT is suitable to be used in active-matrix flat panel electronics.
