Abstract

Considering asymmetry caused by layout, process, and device degradation, separate extraction of the source and drain resistances, i.e., RS and RD, respectively, from the total resistance RTOT is very important in the design, modeling, and characterization of amorphous indiumgalliumzinc oxide (a-IGZO) thin-film transistors (TFTs). Due to the insulated gate structure, however, separate extraction is difficult through direct-current I-V characterization. In this letter, we propose a simple and useful technique for separate extraction of RS from RD in a-IGZO TFTs through a two-terminal parallel-mode C-V technique. We experimentally verified the validity of the proposed technique by comparing the result with the source-to-drain resistance from the I-V characteristics.
