Abstract: | We propose degradation evaluation of poly-Si TFTs by comparing normal and reverse characteristics. Since symmetrical normal and reverse characteristics indicate Joule-heating degradation whereas asymmetrical characteristics indicate hot-carrier degradation, they can be clearly and easily classified. Moreover, degradation occurrence is contrasted between standard and fine TFTs. Finally, behavior of the hot-carrier degradation is analyzed. |
