This book explains the basic elements that readers need to know about amorphous silicon material and a-Si:H TFTs. It includes the main principles of the transistors operation, modeling and applications. Fundamentals about transport mechanisms in a-Si:H TFTs and the associated electronic properties are introduced and extended to design examples and strategies to build reliable, large-area, performance optimized circuits. The book also reviews the effect of the amorphous silicon nature and how it impacts the transistors properties and their relevant applications. Fundamentals are made as simple as possible to be easily grasped as they cover everything expected to be important for an easy understanding of the introduced concepts.

The book is dedicated to undergraduate and graduate students. It is also appropriate for device and circuit simulator developers, integrated circuits designers and manufacturers, as well as everyone who would like to have introductory concepts in thin-film transistors based on amorphous silicon. Fundamentals are made as simple as possible to be easily grasped as it includes the main principles of the a-Si:H TFT operation and modeling.
