Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the damage of the surface of a substrate and to block the diffusion of alkaline components from the substrate by a method wherein an organic polymer layer by plasma polymerization is formed on the substrate, when the thin film transistor is formed on the transparent substrate of glass or quartz. CONSTITUTION:An organic polymer film 8 of hydrocarbon series is formed on the transparent substrate 1 made of glass or quartz by the reduced pressure glow discharge of a hydrocarbon gas of methane, ethane, acetylene, ethylene or benzene. Next, a gate electrode 2 is provided at the center of this surface and then covered with a gate insulation layer 6, and an amorphous Si layer 5 is provided thereon into said transistor. Such a manner allows no decrease in the transparency due to the damage of the substrate 1 during the manufacturing process of the transistor because the chemical properties of the film 8 are extremely stable, and facilitates the manufacture because of durability to a temperature of approx. 400 deg.C.

Figures 1 and 2 of the drawings (al~(based on Cl-,
To explain the following, the transparent substrate (1) made of glass (* is quartz) is also the substrate for the driving electrodes of the liquid crystal display device.Whether the liquid crystal display device is a reflective type or a transmissive type, the transparent substrate (1) ) should be strictly maintained. In Figure 1, the source electrode (:3) and drain electrode (4) are patterned metal layers. On the other hand, the semiconductor layer (5) and the gate insulating layer (2), which are shaped by silicon-based +A, are made of amorphous silicon (a-Si) and silicon nitride (
Si3N4). The gate insulating layer ((i) is transparent or has a refractive index of about 20, and the transparent substrate (1
Since there is a difference in the refractive index V of the gate insulating stone (i) and the transparent substrate (1), the light transmittance decreases at the part where the gate insulating stone (i) and the transparent substrate (1) are in contact.Therefore, as shown in Fig. (The gate insulating layer is limited to the portion where i''l='''J'' exists and its remaining portion within 1 IlI layer in the vicinity, and the gate insulating layer is made of silicon nitride in the pixel area for liquid crystal drive. The insulating layer (6) is removed by etching. However, the silicon nitride and glass transparent substrate (1) of the gate insulating layer (6)
Since the chemical properties .gamma.f of .gamma.f are similar to that of .gamma.f, it is extremely difficult to selectively etch only silicon nitride.

This situation can be explained based on Figure 2 (al~(C1). If a low-cost glass plate is used as a transparent substrate, transparent +14, I, j, plate (Ill2) and r- 'J'Ii' T may be formed after applying a thin film of MM (71 tL-c=e oxidation) f a (SiO2), oxidized aluminum (A, J203), silicon nitride, etc. However, in this case [1, h], it is difficult to select and etch the gate insulating layer (6) and the protective film (7).

If there is no such phenomenon, the same occurs on the surface of the transparent substrate (1), and the light transmittance decreases, making it extremely inconvenient as an electrode plate for a liquid crystal display device.

In practice, the speed of etching the gate insulating layer (6) is slowed down and etching is performed while observing the interference color of the transparent substrate (1) and the nitride/arsenic film (51) to avoid damage to the glass. However, due to the unevenness of the etching process, damage that reduces light transmittance is unavoidable.

The process for manufacturing the single-channel transistor of the present invention is as described above.According to the present invention, by utilizing the fact that the organic polymer film produced by plasma polymerization has extremely stable chemical properties, This prevents the transparent substrate from being damaged and reducing its transparency during the manufacturing of thin film transistors.In addition, organic polymers produced by plasma polymerization can withstand high temperatures of around 400°C. Because of the properties such as 1111I, it is said that 1111I is applied to the heat treatment that is often carried out in the manufacturing process of electrode plates for driving liquid crystal displays. It also prevents alkaline components from spreading out as impurities from the transparent substrate.
