Problems solved by technology

However, oxide TFT usually uses the traditional dielectric oxide film as the gate dielectric, and its capacitive coupling effect is limited. Therefore, a high operating voltage is usually required to obtain high mobility and current switching ratio, which does not meet the requirements of low energy consumption and portable applications. Require
