Specific embodiment
To keep technical solution of the present invention clearer, the present invention is made below in conjunction with drawings and the specific embodiments further detailed It describes in detail bright.
Firstly, it is necessary to explanation, thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of the invention may be either the thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of bottom grating structure, It can also be the thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of top gate structure.
It wherein, is the thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of bottom grating structure of the invention referring to Fig. 1.It includes substrate 110, gate electrode layer 120, gate dielectric layer 130, channel layer 140, source electrode layer 150 and drain electrode layer 160.Specifically, gate electrode layer 120 is formed in lining 110 surface of bottom.Gate dielectric layer 130 is formed in 120 surface of gate electrode layer.Channel layer 140 is formed in 130 surface of gate dielectric layer.Source Electrode layer 150 and drain electrode layer 160 are both formed in 140 surface of channel layer, and have between source electrode layer 150 and drain electrode layer 160 There is interval.Wherein, it is Zn that channel layer 140, which is chemical formula,aSnbNyOzZinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film.Herein, it should be noted that a is The atom content of Zn-ef ficiency (Zn) in zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film, b are the atom content of tin element (Sn) in zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film, and y is The atom content of nitrogen (N) in zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film, z are the atom content of oxygen element (O) in zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film.
It referring to fig. 2, is the thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of top gate structure of the invention.It equally includes substrate 110, gate electrode layer 120, gate dielectric layer 130, channel layer 140, source electrode layer 150 and drain electrode layer 160.Unlike, channel layer 140 is formed in lining 110 surface of bottom;Gate dielectric layer 130 is formed in 140 surface of channel layer;Source electrode layer 150 and drain electrode layer 160 are respectively formed in ditch The surface that channel layer 140 is not covered by gate dielectric layer 130, also, source electrode layer 150 and drain electrode layer 160 are located at gate medium The two sides of layer 130;Gate electrode layer 120 is then formed in 130 surface of gate dielectric layer, be located at source electrode layer 150 and drain electrode layer 160 it Between.Likewise, equally using chemical formula for Zn in the thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of top gate structureaSnbNyOzZinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film As channel layer 140.
That is, no matter the structure of thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of the invention is bottom grating structure or top gate structure, channel Layer 140 is that chemical formula is ZnaSnbNyOzZinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film.It is by using zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film as crystal as a result, Channel layer 140 in pipe, so that the performance for the thin film transistor (TFT) 100 being ultimately formed is better than traditional amorphous silicon membrane crystal Pipe.Also, it since zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film is made of nontoxic element abundant, not can cause environmental pollution not only, have good Good environmental protection characteristic, while process conditions are required more wide in range, even if still being able to prepare under the conditions of low temperature process, this is also Effectively reduce the requirement of preparation condition.It further, is that direct band gap is partly led as the zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film of channel layer 140 Body.Wherein, direct band-gap semicondictor material is exactly conduction band minimum (conduction band bottom) and the maximum price band same position in k-space It sets.Electronics, which will transit to, to be generated conductive electrons and holes (forming half-full energy band) and only needs to absorb energy greater than band gap on conduction band Photon.And the band gap of zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film is relatively narrow, can respond to visible light, this is allowed for using zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film It can be applied to the display unit and light sensing unit of interactive display screen simultaneously as the thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of channel layer 140, from And efficiently solve the compatibility issue that thin film transistor (TFT) 100 is applied in interactive display screen.
Wherein, it should be noted that in thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of the invention, the zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen as channel layer 140 is thin The content of oxygen element has a certain impact to the performance tool of thin film transistor (TFT) 100 in film, therefore, in thin film transistor (TFT) of the invention In 100, nitrogen oxygen atom percentage are as follows: 0.50-2.00, optimal value 1.73.When nitrogen oxygen atom ratio is certain value, zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen The performance of thin film transistor (TFT) is more excellent, this is because the presence of a certain amount of oxygen element can effectively reduce the current-carrying of zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film Sub- concentration, while the mobility of zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film can be made to improve compared with high nitrogen amount of element, thus in the pass for reducing thin film transistor (TFT) State electric current makes the on-state current of thin film transistor (TFT) maintain high value again simultaneously, final to obtain the higher Simultaneous Switching ratio of mobility again Biggish thin film transistor (TFT).
In addition, the atomic percent of Zn-ef ficiency (Zn) and tin element (Sn) in zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film compares thin film transistor (TFT) 100 performance parameter equally has important influence.Therefore, the selection of the atomic percent of Zn-ef ficiency and tin element is also especially heavy It wants.In a specific embodiment of thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of the invention, the value of the atomic percent of Zn-ef ficiency and tin element Range can are as follows: 2-10.Preferably, through a large number of experiments the study found that in the zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film Zn-ef ficiency and tin element When atomic percent is 6.66, i.e. when the content of tin element is lower, intrinsic mobility is up to 25.58cm2V-1s-1, N-type current-carrying Sub- concentration is 1019cm-3, there is relatively narrow optics direct band gap (about 1.70ev).And in the zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film Zn-ef ficiency with When the atomic percent of tin element is 3.75, i.e. when the content of tin element is higher, intrinsic mobility can reduce, corresponding field effect Answer mobility that can be reduced, the degradation of thin film transistor (TFT) 100.Therefore, as the excellent of thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of the invention Select embodiment, the value of the atomic percent of Zn-ef ficiency and tin element should between 3.75-6.66, preferably 6.66.
Further, since the thickness of the channel layer 140 in thin film transistor (TFT) 100 equally also will affect thin film transistor (TFT) 100 performance parameter.Source electrode layer 150 and drain electrode when the thickness of channel layer 140 is blocked up, positioned at 140 surface of channel layer Contact resistance between layer 160 will be excessive, and using zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film as the intrinsic carrier in channel layer 140 Can be excessive, thin film transistor (TFT) 100 thus can be made to occur closing continuous phenomenon.When the thickness of channel layer 140 is excessively thin, as ditch The quality of forming film of the zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film of channel layer 140 is not easy to improve, it will usually be in high-impedance state, so that thin film transistor (TFT) can not be embodied 100 performance.Therefore, in thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of the invention, the thickness of the zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film as channel layer 140 Range is 10nm -100nm.Preferably, after through lot of experiments, guaranteeing that it is good that thin film transistor (TFT) 100 has While performance parameter, additionally it is possible to manufacturing cost be effectively reduced, save and generate the process time, the thickness of zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film is excellent It is selected as 15nm -33nm.
In addition, the structure of the zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film as channel layer 140 equally also will affect the performance of thin film transistor (TFT) 100 Parameter.And the structure of zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film is usually to be determined by the preparation process of zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film.As of the invention Magnetron sputtering deposition work can be used in one specific embodiment of thin film transistor (TFT) 100, the zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film as channel layer 140 The preparations such as skill, chemical vapor deposition process are formed.Wherein, since magnetron sputtering depositing operation is with good stability and controllable Property, therefore preferably magnetron sputtering depositing operation.
Correspondingly, the present invention also provides a kind of film crystal control in order to realize any of the above-described kind of thin film transistor (TFT) 100 Preparation Method.It can also be top gate structure since thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of the invention may be either the thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of bottom grating structure Thin film transistor (TFT) 100.Therefore, correspondingly, both including bottom grating structure as film crystal tube preparation method of the invention Thin film transistor (TFT) preparation method, while further including the preparation method for having the thin film transistor (TFT) of top gate structure.
Wherein, the preparation method as the thin film transistor (TFT) of bottom grating structure includes step S100, using plated film work first Skill is sequentially prepared to form gate electrode layer 120 and gate dielectric layer 130 on 110 surface of substrate.Then, then by step S200, in grid 130 surface of dielectric layer prepares to form channel layer 140.In turn, then by step S300, the source of being formed is prepared on 140 surface of channel layer Electrode layer 150 and drain electrode layer 160 complete the preparation of the thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of bottom grating structure.Wherein, it should be noted that by It cannot directly be contacted in source electrode with drain electrode, therefore there is preset interval between source electrode layer 150 and drain electrode layer 160.Together When, since thin film transistor (TFT) 100 only can just have certain electric property after crystallization.Therefore, when by step S300, After the preparation for completing source electrode layer 150 and drain electrode layer 160, it is also necessary to be retreated to prepared thin film transistor (TFT) 100 Fire processing, crystallizes it.
In addition, passing through step S100 ' first, using plated film when carrying out the preparation of thin film transistor (TFT) of top gate structure Technique prepares to form channel layer 140 on 110 surface of substrate.Then, then by step S200 ', shape is prepared on 140 surface of channel layer At gate dielectric layer 130.And then again by step S300 ', shape is prepared on the surface that channel layer 140 is not covered by gate dielectric layer 130 At source electrode layer 150 and drain electrode layer 160.Wherein, source electrode layer 150 and drain electrode layer 160 are located at gate dielectric layer 130 Two sides, so that source electrode layer 150 and drain electrode layer 160 are not directly contacted with and lead to short circuit.Finally pass through step again S400 ' prepares to form gate electrode layer 120 on 130 surface of gate dielectric layer, thus complete the thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of top gate structure Preparation.Herein, explanation is also needed, by step S400 ', completes the preparation of the thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of top gate structure Later, it also needs to carry out after annealing crystallization treatment to prepared thin film transistor (TFT) 100, thus thin prepared by guarantee is final Film transistor 100 has certain electric property.
It should be pointed out that whether preparing the thin of bottom grating structure in 100 preparation method of thin film transistor (TFT) of the invention Film transistor 100 still prepares the thin film transistor (TFT) 100 of top gate structure, when preparing channel layer 140, prepared channel layer 140 be zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film.Wherein, the chemical formula of zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film are as follows: ZnaSnbNyOz.A is zinc in zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film The atom content of element, b are the atom content of tin element in zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film, and y is the original of nitrogen in zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film Sub- content, z are the atom content of nitrogen in zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film.
Further, the specific embodiment as film crystal tube preparation method of the invention, is preparing channel layer When 140, it is preferred that prepared using magnetron sputtering depositing operation.That is, by using magnetron sputtering depositing operation system The standby zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film as channel layer 140.Wherein, when preparing zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film using magnetron sputtering depositing operation, Process gas is preferably nitrogen.Also, the flow of nitrogen can be 12sccm.In addition, influencing the work of the performance of zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film Skill parameter further includes deposition rate.And deposition rate is generally determined by the parameters such as sputtering power and deposition gases pressure.At this Invention is prepared in a specific embodiment of thin film transistor (TFT) 100 using magnetron sputtering depositing operation, and sputtering power can be 100W -150W, the gas pressure intensity of deposition chamber can be 1.5Pa -2.5Pa.Preferably, magnetron sputtering depositing operation is being used It prepares in zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen thin-film process, it is predetermined value that deposition rate is controlled by adjusting sputtering power and deposition gases pressure When, the best performance of thin film transistor (TFT).Its sputtering power is preferably 120W, and the gas pressure intensity of deposition chamber is preferably 2Pa。
Further, the also annealing process of the zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen membrane structure as channel layer 140 is influenced.In general, The parameter setting of annealing atmosphere, annealing temperature and annealing time is generally comprised when being made annealing treatment.Wherein, it needs to illustrate It is that annealing process is substantially the process for controlling the crystallization of zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film.The quality of zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film crystalline quality is straight The structure for influencing channel layer 140 is connect, to influence the performance parameter of thin film transistor (TFT) 100.And annealing temperature then directly affects zinc The crystalline quality of tin nitrogen oxygen channel layer 140.Annealing temperature is too low, and zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film is uncrystallizable, so that zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen Film is integrally in high-impedance state, eventually leads to thin film transistor (TFT) 100 without performance.Annealing temperature is excessively high, and zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film and grid are situated between Interface and gate dielectric layer 130 between matter layer 130 may be damaged.It is serious, it will lead to the cracking of zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film surface, So that 100 penalty of thin film transistor (TFT).Therefore, it according to the crystallization temperature of zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film, studies through a large number of experiments, The final range for determining annealing temperature is 200 DEG C -400 DEG C.It preferably, can be 200 DEG C -250 DEG C.
Simultaneously as the length of annealing time also will affect the crystalline quality of zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film.Annealing time is too short, zinc Tin nitrogen oxygen film may not crystallize, be in high-impedance state, corresponding thin film transistor (TFT) is without performance.Annealing time is too long, then will lead to zinc Interfacial state between tin nitrogen oxygen film and gate dielectric layer 130 increases, so that thin-film transistor performance deteriorates.Therefore, of the invention In zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film crystal tube preparation method, annealing time when being made annealing treatment can be 3 hours -10 hours.Preferably 3 hours.
Further, when carrying out annealing crystallization processing to post-depositional zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film, since oxygen element is in zinc Content in tin nitrogen oxygen film has critically important influence for the performance of prepared thin film transistor (TFT), a certain amount of oxygen element In the presence of can effectively reduce carrier concentration, therefore, when carrying out after annealing processing to the thin film transistor (TFT) of preparation, annealing atmosphere is excellent It is selected as oxygen-containing gas, such as: oxygen, to realize the control to oxygen element content in zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film.
Finally, either before source-drain electrode depositing operation, or after source-drain electrode depositing operation, it is optionally right Zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen thin film channel layer carries out ozone-plasma bombardment, reduces showing for zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film intrinsic carrier concentration to play As so that the electric current of thin film transistor (TFT) can turn off.Wherein, when using ozone-plasma bombardment zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film, compared with senior engineer The rate of doing work intrinsic carrier concentration of thin film transistor (TFT) can be made to reduce degree is larger, and it is smaller to open electric current, cause to be saturated mobility compared with It is small.Lower operating power intrinsic carrier concentration can then reduced degree is smaller, and it is larger to open electric current, cause to be saturated mobility more Greatly.Therefore, in zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film crystal tube preparation method of the invention, when carrying out ozone-plasma bombardment, power is bombarded It needs to be groped accordingly by many experiments with bombardment time.It should be noted that in film crystal control of the invention In Preparation Method, when bombarding zinc-tin nitrogen oxygen film using ozone-plasma, bombardment power can be 200W-500W, and operating time is 5min-15min.Preferably, power 250W, operating time 10min.
