Abstract :
In this paper a-Si:H TFTs with the external the mechanical strain and bending cycles is studied. In addition, the trap states distribution is also discussed. Besides, the temperature distribution of a-Si:H TFTs on plastic substrate is an important issue for operation. A thermal conduction layer dissipates the accumulated heat during operation is designed and it calculates the temperature distribution in this work.
