Notes:
Photon-induced current (Iph) in polycrystalline-silicon thin-film transistors (poly-Si TFTs) has been investigated using a line-shaped light beam scanning method. In the off-state region, photon-excited carriers in the channel region diffuse to the drain with the diffusion length independent of the poly-Si grain size. The diffusion length is also independent whether poly-Si is hydrogenated or not. This phenomenon is observed in both n-channel and p-channel TFTs. In the subthreshold region, Iph follows the general transport equation in poly-Si. In the inversion region, Iph is proportional only to the total amount of excited carriers in the channel. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.
