Abstract: Embodiments herein describe techniques for a thin-film transistor (TFT), which may include a gate electrode above a substrate and a channel layer above the gate electrode. A source electrode may be above the channel layer and adjacent to a source area of the channel layer, and a drain electrode may be above the channel layer and adjacent to a drain area of the channel layer. A passivation layer may be above the channel layer and between the source electrode and the drain electrode, and a top dielectric layer may be above the gate electrode, the channel layer, the source electrode, the drain electrode, and the passivation layer. In addition, an air gap may be above the passivation layer and below the top dielectric layer, and between the source electrode and the drain electrode. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract: Embodiments herein describe techniques for a semiconductor device, which may include a substrate, and a U-shaped channel above the substrate. The U-shaped channel may include a channel bottom, a first channel wall and a second channel wall parallel to each other, a source area, and a drain area. A gate dielectric layer may be above the substrate and in contact with the channel bottom. A gate electrode may be above the substrate and in contact with the gate dielectric layer. A source electrode may be coupled to the source area, and a drain electrode may be coupled to the drain area. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
