In this example embodiment, the first film transistor positioned at periphery circuit region 10a is brilliant preferably using LTPS films Body pipe, in order to realize narrow frame design, and the second thin film transistor (TFT) positioned at effective display area 10b preferably uses LTPO films Transistor, in order to realize low frequency driving.
Based on this, the preparation method of the thin film transistor (TFT) is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
In step sl, it is located at periphery circuit region refering to what is shown in Fig. 2, being formed in the top of substrate by a patterning processes The first semiconductor active layer 101 of 10a.
Here substrate can be underlay substrate 10 such as glass substrate or flexible base board but it is also possible to be being formed with it The substrate of its film layer such as buffer layer 100.Current-voltage (IV) characteristic in view of top gate type LTPS thin film transistor (TFT)s and steady Qualitative, the present embodiment is preferably the scheme for including buffer layer 100 using the latter, and the buffer layer 100 for example could be provided as Silicon oxide film.
Exemplary, this step S1 can specifically include:

S102, the polysilicon membrane is made to form the polycrystalline silicon active positioned at periphery circuit region 10a by a patterning processes Layer, which is the first semiconductor active layer 101.
Wherein, the forming process of polysilicon active layer for example can be:One layer of photoetching is coated in the top of polysilicon membrane Glue is exposed the substrate for being coated with photoresist using mask plate and develops to the substrate after exposure, to obtain photoetching Glue member-retaining portion and photoresist removal part, the photoresist member-retaining portion are corresponding polysilicon active layer to be formed, pass through quarter Photoresist is removed the polysilicon membrane exposed part and performed etching by etching technique, and the pattern of mask plate is transferred to the polysilicon Film finally removes remaining photoresist, you can obtains required polysilicon active layer.
In step s 2, refering to what is shown in Fig. 3, forming the first insulating layer 102 in the top of the first semiconductor active layer 101, And light shield layer 103 and just positioned at effective display area 10b is formed by patterning processes in the top of the first insulating layer 102 To the first grid 104 of the first semiconductor active layer 101.
In the present embodiment, the first insulating layer 102 can be single layer structure or multilayered structure, but in order to ensure LTPS films Side i.e. the of the IV characteristics and stability of transistor, first insulating layer 102 contact light shield layer 103 and first grid 104 The upper surface of one insulating layer 102 is needed using silicon oxide film.It follows that the first insulating layer 102 can be silicon oxide film Single layer structure or multilayered structure for upper strata silicon oxide film and lower floor's silicon nitride film.
Exemplary, this step S2 can specifically include:
S201, the first insulating layer 102, the upper table of first insulating layer are formed in the top of the first semiconductor active layer 101 Face is silicon oxide film;
S202, the first metal layer film is formed in the top of the first insulating layer 102;
S203, the first metal layer film is made to form the light shield layer positioned at effective display area 10b by a patterning processes 103 and the first grid 104 of the first semiconductor active layer of face 101.
Wherein, the forming process of light shield layer 103 and first grid 104 for example can be:In the upper of the first metal layer film One layer of photoresist of side's coating, is exposed the substrate for being coated with photoresist using mask plate and the substrate after exposure is shown Shadow, to obtain photoresist member-retaining portion and photoresist removal part, which is corresponding light shield layer to be formed 103 and first grid 104, photoresist is removed by the first metal layer film exposed part by etching technics and is performed etching, with The pattern of mask plate is transferred to the first metal layer film, finally removes remaining photoresist, you can obtain required shading Layer 103 and first grid 104.
It follows that the light shield layer 103 positioned at effective display area 10b and the first grid 104 positioned at periphery circuit region 10a It can be passed through by same layer metal with a patterning processes and obtained, the material and thickness all same of the two.Due to effective display area 10b Using oxide thin film transistor, and oxide semiconductor active layer is very sensitive to light, therefore the present embodiment is treating shape Into oxide thin film transistor below be initially formed a light shield layer 103, become to prevent oxide thin film transistor by illumination Property, so as to ensure the stability of oxide thin film transistor.
In step s3, refering to what is shown in Fig. 4, forming second insulating layer in the top of light shield layer 103 and first grid 104 105, and pass through patterning processes and form the first via 106 through the first insulating layer 102 and second insulating layer 105 and the Two vias 107, first via 106 and second via 107 respectively expose the both sides of the first semiconductor active layer 101.
In the present embodiment, second insulating layer 105 can be single layer structure or multilayered structure, which carries on the back Silicon oxide film may be used in upper surface from light shield layer 103 and side, that is, second insulating layer 105 of first grid 104.Due to It will form the second such as metal-oxide semiconductor (MOS) of semiconductor active layer 111 in the top of second insulating layer 105, and hydrogen content Higher film layer such as silicon nitride film or silicon oxynitride film can make metal oxide semiconductor material conductor, so as to lead The penalty of LTPO thin film transistor (TFT)s is caused, therefore the upper surface of the second insulating layer 105 is needed using silicon oxide film.Thus It is found that second insulating layer 105 can be the single layer structure of silicon oxide film or be upper strata silicon oxide film and lower floor's silicon nitride The multilayered structure of film.
In this step, the forming process of the first via 106 and the second via 107 for example can be:In second insulating layer 105 Top coat one layer of photoresist, the substrate for being coated with photoresist is exposed using mask plate and to the substrate after exposure into Row development, to obtain photoresist member-retaining portion and photoresist removal part, photoresist removal part i.e. corresponding to be formed the Photoresist is removed the second insulating layer 105 and first exposed part by one via 106 and the second via 107 by etching technics Insulating layer 102 performs etching, and the pattern of mask plate is transferred to 105 and first insulating layer 102 of second insulating layer, is finally removed Remaining photoresist, you can obtain required the first via 106 and the second via 107.
In step s 4, with reference to as shown in figure 5, being formed in the top of second insulating layer 105 by a patterning processes logical It crosses the first via 106 and the second via 107 is in contact and disconnects with the both sides of the first semiconductor active layer 101 respectively the second half Conductor, which retains pattern 108, is located at the second semiconductor respectively retains the first source electrode 109 on pattern 108 and the first drain electrode 110, just It the second semiconductor active layer 111 to light shield layer 103 and is in contact respectively with the both sides of the second semiconductor active layer 111 Second source electrode 112 and the second drain electrode 113.
