The activation energy of a poly-Si thin film transistor is observed to be influenced by the grain size, trap state density and the inversion layer thickness. The present study aims to investigate these parameters theoretically so as to explore optimum conditions for the working of a polycrystalline silicon thin film transistor. Our computations have revealed that the activation energy decreases with the increase of gate bias for all values of grain size, trap states density and the inversion layer thickness. These findings are compared with the experimental results. |
