While the on-off operation in typical TFTs results primarily from the modulation of charge carrier density by gate voltage, the high on-off ratio in ultrathin oxide TFTs can be associated with a large carrier mobility modulation, whose origin remains unknown. We investigate 3.5 nm-thick titanium oxide based ultrathin TFTs exhibiting 6-decade on-off ratio, predominantly driven by gate induced mobility modulation. The power law behavior of the mobility features two regimes, with a very high exponent at low gate voltages, unprecedented for oxide TFTs. We find that this phenomenon is well explained by the presence of high-density tail states near the conduction band edge, which supports carrier transport via variable range hopping. The observed two-exponent regimes reflect the bi-exponential distribution of the density of band-tail states. This improved understanding would be significant in fabricating high-performance ultrathin oxide devices.</dc:description> <dc:identifier>https://archive.materialscloud.org/record/2020.146</dc:identifier> <dc:identifier>doi:10.24435/materialscloud:1t-g7</dc:identifier> <dc:identifier>mcid:2020.146</dc:identifier> <dc:identifier>oai:materialscloud.org:618</dc:identifier> <dc:language>en</dc:language> <dc:publisher>Materials Cloud</dc:publisher> <dc:rights>info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess</dc:rights> <dc:rights>Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode</dc:rights> <dc:subject>amorphous semiconductor</dc:subject> <dc:subject>titanium oxide</dc:subject> <dc:subject>field-effect transistor</dc:subject> <dc:subject>variable range hopping</dc:subject> <dc:subject>mobility modulation</dc:subject> <dc:title>Large mobility modulation in ultrathin amorphous titanium oxide transistors</dc:title> <dc:type>Dataset</dc:type> </oai_dc:dc>
