摘要

In regards to the advances in InGaZnO for flexible transistors applications, herein for the first time we measure the broadband radio-frequency range (10 Hz to 1 MHz) dielectric permittivity ε′ and electrical conductivity σ of InGaZnO4 nanoparticle layers at different temperatures ranging from 10 to 300 K. The InGaZnO4 nanoparticles prepared by metal–nitrate–glycol gel decomposition method exhibited a highly porous amorphous structure after sintering at 500 °C, while the crystallinity and particle size increased with increasing sintering temperature. Radio-frequency (RF) measurements were performed in two states: hydrated (stored under atmospheric conditions for several days) and dehydrated (dried under 10–5 mbar vacuum for two days). All the samples exhibited a characteristic decrease in permittivity with increasing frequency, however the frequency-dependence of permittivity decreased with decrease in temperature and reached to a dispersionless state at low temperatures (around 11 K) with \(\varepsilon^{\prime}\) ε values stabilizing around 4–5 for all hydrated and dehydrated samples. The RF electrical conductivity of InGaZnO4 was found to increase with the increase of frequency at low temperatures, however, it remains almost frequency-independent at near ambient temperatures with values between 9.4 × 10−7 and 1.9 × 10−5 S/cm depending on the grain size and hydration status.
