The UTC\|TFT has an ultra\|thin channel region (30nm) and a thick drain/source region (300nm). The ultra\|thin channel region that can result in a lower grain\|boundary trap density in the channel is connected to the heavily\|doped thick drain/source region through a lightly\|doped overlapped region. The overlapped lightly\|doped region provides an effective way for the electric field to spread in the channel near the drain at high drain biases, thereby reducing the electric field there significantly. Simulation results show the UTC\|TFT experiences a 50% reduction in peak lateral electric field compared to that of the conventional TFT. With the low grain\|boundary trap density and low drain electric field, excellent current saturation characteristics and high drain breakdown voltage are achieved in the UTC\|TFT. Moreover, this technology provides the complementary LTPS\|TFTs with more than 2 times increase in on\|current, 3.5 times reduction in off\|current compared to the conventional thick channel LTPS TFTs.展开更多

We experimentally achieve high visibilities of 93.9% for HOM interference and 86.5% for NOON state interference,demonstrating that efficient mode interference with active tuning can be realized on this platform.展开更多
