A high performance amorphous‐indium‐gallium‐zinc‐oxide (a‐IGZO) thin‐film transistor (TFT)‐based inverter is demonstrated using the dual gate TFT structure. The results indicate that the load of the inverter behaves like a depletion‐mode TFT when the top gate is under a positive bias. The proposed inverter shows much improved switching characteristics such as a wider swing range and higher noise margins, which are all achieved without the requirement of an additional process step to make the depletion load.
