Abstract
本发明涉及一种氧化物半导体膜,含有铟元素(In)、铈元素(Ce)、锌元素(Zn)及氧元素(O),该In:Ce:Zn的摩尔比为2:(0.5~2):1,氧化物半导体膜为n型半导体,载流子浓度为1012cm‑3~1020cm‑3,载流子迁移率为5.0 cm2V‑1s‑1~45.0 cm2V‑1s‑1。本发明还涉及一种氧化物半导体膜的制备方法。
Description
技术领域
本发明涉及一种氧化物半导体膜及其制备方法。
背景技术
随着信息技术的飞速发展,平板显示技术正向着更高分辨率、更快响应速度、更低能耗、全透明器件以及柔性显示等目标发展,这也对有源驱动显示(如AMLCD,ActiveMatrix Liquid Crystal Display)中TFT(thin film transistor)器件的性能提出更高要求。传统的非晶硅TFT由于其迁移率较低(~ 0.5cm2 V-1 s-1)的特性不能满足高分辨率、大尺寸LCD的显示要求,更限制其在AMOLED(Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode)显示中的应用。而低温多晶硅TFT虽然迁移率较高,但是其生产成本过高,大面积均匀性较难保证,不适合应用于大面积、高分辨显示器。相较于非晶硅TFT和低温多晶硅TFT,基于非晶氧化物半导体InGaZnO4的薄膜晶体管(IGZO-TFT)以其透过率高、制备温度低、工艺兼容性好等诸多优点,能够替代非晶硅TFT,并且有望用于透明显示以及OLED显示。
然而,IGZO-TFT器件迁移率在非晶硅TFT和低温多晶硅TFT之间,若能进一步提高IGZO-TFT的器件迁移率,其优势将更明显。研究发现,二元氧化物氧化铟锌(IZO)的迁移率远大于三元氧化物IGZO,但由于其载流子浓度过高,且在使用中易受光照及栅压等影响导致性能参数发生变化,即稳定性差,因此不适合制备TFT器件。
发明内容
有鉴于此,确有必要提供一迁移率较高且稳定性较好的氧化物半导体膜及其制备方法。
一种氧化物半导体膜,含有铟元素(In)、铈元素(Ce)、锌元素(Zn)及氧元素(O),该In:Ce:Zn的摩尔比为2:(0.5~2):1,氧化物半导体膜为n型半导体,载流子浓度为1012cm-3~1020cm-3,载流子迁移率为5.0 cm2V-1s-1~45.0 cm2V-1s-1。
与现有技术相比,三元氧化物ICZO中铈(Ce)元素的加入不仅能降低载流子浓度,同时还能保证高迁移率,从而具有较好的半导体性能,适合用于制备薄膜晶体管,用于平板显示器或其它电子设备中。另外,由于In、Ce及Zn均可在室温进行溅射,该溅射形成半导体膜的过程可以在室温进行,从而简化了生产工艺。
