Abstract

A metal oxide thin film transistor includes a metal oxide semiconductor channel with the metal oxide semiconductor having a conduction band with a first energy level. The transistor further includes a layer of passivation material covering at least a portion of the metal oxide semiconductor channel. The passivation material has a conduction band with a second energy level equal to, or less than 0.5 eV above the first energy level.
