High-Performance Amorphous Zinc–Tin–Oxide Thin-Film Transistors With Low Tin Concentration

In this paper, we present thin-film transistors (TFTs) with a zinc–tin–oxide (ZTO) layer achieved through magnetron co-sputtering. Amorphous ZTO TFTs with an Sn concentration of 2.49%, 6.95%, 7.11%, 11.95%, and 16.47% were...
