Thin-film transistors are made using an organosilicate glass (OSG) as an insulator material. The organosilicate glasses may be SiO 2 -silicone hybrid materials deposited by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition from siloxanes and oxygen. These hybrid materials may be employed as the gate dielectric, as a subbing layer, and/or as a back channel passivating layer. The transistors may be made in any conventional TFT geometry. |
