Analysis of low frequency noise in in situ fluorine-doped ZnSnO thin-film transistors

We report on in situ fluorine-doped ZnSnO (ZTO:F) thin-film transistors (TFTs) fabricated by co-sputtering. The low frequency noise (LFN) characteristics of ZTO:F TFTs under different annealing temperatures and FSnO (FTO) deposition powers are comparatively studied for the first time. The results sh...
