Abstract

We report amorphous silicon thin film transistors (a-Si TFT's) with an extrapolated DC saturation current half-life of more than 100 years, an improvement of over 1000 times compared to the previous art (1-4). This TFT half-life is higher than the luminance half-life of high-quality green phosphorescent OLED's, showing that the TFT's are promising for driving OLED's in active-matrix OLED displays.
