The graphene coplanar waveguide (CPW) has recently been found to have large insertion loss (typically larger than 50 dB/100 μm), which mainly results from the large resistance of graphene. The poor radio-frequency transmission property of graphene hampers its application in interconnect, a low loss material is thus re…

In this paper, we investigate the response of low-frequency noise to the light for the amorphous indium gallium zinc oxide (a-IGZO) thin film transistors (TFTs). Compared with the case of nonillumination, the noise level increases with the light intensity. We find that the induced noise is more related to the drain cu…
