The degradation mechanism of a‐IGZO TFT‐based inverter is investigated under the toggled AC biased input (V IN ), with a direct evidence of subgap density of states (DOS). The AC stress‐induced threshold voltage shift (ΔV T ) of driver TFT is observed to be smaller than that of load TFT, which results in the V OH degradation during AC stress. The dominant mechanism of the toggled V IN stress‐induced ΔV T of driver TFT in a‐IGZO inverter is the increase of subgap DOS deep stats, whereas the ΔV T of load TFT during inverter operation is attributed to the electron trapping into the interface and/or a‐IGZO thin film.
