Abstract

TFT devices play a role of conducting electric current to charge the LC capacitor and storage capacitor, acting as an electric current driver to light “on” and “off” the OLED pixel besides a switch. A TFT device structure comprises several material layers, including metallic gate electrode, gate dielectric film, semiconductor channel, and source/drain electrodes, which is similar to metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET). The details of TFT design, materials, fabrication and applications will be discussed for their respect usages.
