Abstract(in English) The self-heating effect of thin film transistors (TFTs) is a serious problem when the TFT circuits are formed on a plastic film, since plastic films generally possess low thermal conductivity values, preventing the efficient dissipation of heat. In addition, the glass transition temperature of plastic films is roughly between 100℃ and 200℃ and, thus, the self-heating effect of a TFT needs to be more strictly controlled on a plastic film than that on a glass substrate. This paper presents four methods for controlling the self-heating effect through TFT shape, TFT electrical performance, dimensional reductions and low-power, energy-efficient circuits. A combination of these methods will be essential for realizing the system-on-panel concept on plastic.
