Abstract

Direct deposition of polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin films by the Hot Wire CVD method has been used for the first time for the fabrication of poly-Si top gate Thin Film Transistors (TFTs). The TFTs have a high electron mobility in saturation of up to 4 cm2V−1s−1 as well as a remarkably large ON/OFF ratio of up to 6 × 105.
