Flexible a-IGZO TFT Technology: New Developments & Applications

We present recent developments on flexible a-IGZO TFT technology scaling in terms of TFT channel length and operating voltage, as well as manufacturing cost optimization with a focus on R2R processing compatibility. We present progress on the relevant technology building blocks; (i) R2R compatible TFT architecture, (ii) (multilevel) nanoimprint lithography and (iii) S-ALD deposited TFT materials. Additionally, we show a developing application that drives scaling of the technology, namely a monolithically integrated flexible AMOLED display with in-display fingerprint detection.
