The threshold voltage modulation of carbon nanotube thin-film transistors(TFTs)and flexible three-dimensional(3D)integration circuits has become hot research topics for carbon-based electronics.In this paper,a doping-free gate electrode technology is introduced to significantly modulate the threshold voltage of polymer-sorted semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotube(sc-SWCNT)TFTs in combination with the highly effective gate-controlling ability of solid-state electrolyte thin films as the dielectrics.A systematic investigation was conducted on the impact of printed silver,evaporated silver,and evaporated aluminum(Al)gate electrodes on the threshold voltage of flexible printed bottom-gate and top-gate SWCNT TFTs.The results indicate that the SWCNT TFTs with Al gate electrodes exhibit enhancement-mode characteristics with excellent electrical properties,such as the negative threshold voltages(-0.6 V),high Ion/Ioff(up to 106),low subthreshold swing(61.4 mV·dec-1),and small hysteresis.It is attributed to either the formation of lower work function thin films(Al2O3)at the electrode/dielectric layer interfaces through the natural oxidation of the Al bottom-gate electrodes or the dipole reaction of the Al top-gate electrodes from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy(UPS)data.In addition,3D complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor(CMOS)inverters with common gate electrodes were constructed using the resulting enhancement-mode P-type SWCNT TFTs and matched N-type SWCNT TFTs,which shows high voltage gain(34),rail-to-rail output and high noise margins(80.04%,VDD=-1V)as well good mechanical flexibility at low operation voltages.It demonstrates that SWCNT TFTs have great advantages for building large-scale 3D flexible integrated circuits.
