Abstract
Description
酸化物半導体は、電子移動度が高いため、TFTをより小型化することができて液晶パネルにおける開口率の向上を図ることができるのに加えて、TFTが設けられたアレイ基板上に様々な回路部を設けることを可能とする。ところが、アレイ基板上に回路部を形成すると、例えば製造過程において発生した静電気が回路部に印加されることが懸念され、そうなると回路部に不良が発生するおそれがあった。
本発明の第1の半導体装置は、基板と、前記基板上に形成される第1金属膜と、少なくとも前記第1金属膜上に形成される絶縁膜と、前記絶縁膜上に形成される半導体膜と、少なくとも前記半導体膜上に形成されて前記半導体膜を保護する保護膜と、前記保護膜上に形成される第2金属膜と、前記第2金属膜からなる2つの電極部と、前記保護膜からなり2つの前記電極部と重畳する位置にそれぞれ貫通して形成された2つの半導体機能部側開口部を有する保護部と、前記半導体膜からなり2つの前記半導体機能部側開口部を通して2つの前記電極部にそれぞれ接続される半導体部とを少なくとも有する半導体機能部と、前記第1金属膜からなる信号配線部と、前記第1金属膜からなり前記信号配線部の端部に形成される信号配線側接続部と、前記保護膜及び前記絶縁膜からなり前記信号配線側接続部と重畳する位置に貫通して形成されるコンタクト部側開口部を有する絶縁部と、前記第2金属膜からなり前記半導体機能部が有する2つの前記電極部のいずれか一方に連なるとともに前記コンタクト部側開口部を通して前記信号配線側接続部に接続される半導体機能部側接続部とを少なくとも有するコンタクト部と、前記半導体膜からなり平面に視て前記半導体機能部と前記コンタクト部との間に配されるとともに前記第2金属膜を成膜する前の段階で前記半導体機能部と前記コンタクト部とのいずれか一方にて発生した静電気を誘引するための静電気誘引部と、前記保護膜からなり前記静電気誘引部と平面に視て重畳する位置に貫通して形成される静電気誘引開口部を有する誘引部保護部とを少なくとも有する静電気保護部と、を備える。
(1)前記半導体膜は、酸化物半導体からなる。このようにすれば、半導体膜を酸化物半導体とすると、製造過程において第2金属膜を成膜する際にエッチングされ易くなったり、また成膜後においても酸化または還元され易い傾向にあるものの、半導体膜と第2金属膜との間には保護膜が介在しており、半導体膜が保護膜によって保護されるので、第2金属膜を成膜する際にエッチングされ難くなり、また成膜後において半導体膜が酸化または還元され難くなる。
本発明によれば、静電気に起因する不良の発生を抑制することができる。
本発明の実施形態1を図1から図18によって説明する。本実施形態では、液晶表示装置10について例示する。なお、各図面の一部にはX軸、Y軸及びZ軸を示しており、各軸方向が各図面で示した方向となるように描かれている。また、上下方向については、図2などを基準とし、且つ同図上側を表側とするとともに同図下側を裏側とする。
その点、半導体膜36からなり平面に視て第1ダイオード29とコンタクト部32との間に配される静電気誘引部52と、保護膜37からなり静電気誘引部52と平面に視て重畳する位置に貫通して形成される静電気誘引開口部53aを有する誘引部保護部53とを少なくとも有する静電気保護部51が備えられているので、当該アレイ基板11bの製造過程において第2金属膜38を成膜する前の段階では、静電気誘引部52が誘引部保護部53を貫通する静電気誘引開口部53aを通して露出することになる。従って、第2金属膜38を成膜する前の段階で第1ダイオード29とコンタクト部32とのいずれか一方にて静電気が発生した場合でも、その静電気を、他方側に至る途中に存在する静電気誘引開口部53aを通して静電気誘引部52へと誘引することができる。これにより、第1ダイオード29またはコンタクト部32に静電気に起因する不良が発生し難くすることができる。
本発明の実施形態2を図19から図22によって説明する。この実施形態2では、静電気保護回路部126を共通配線125に対して接続しない構成としたものを示す。なお、上記した実施形態1と同様の構造、作用及び効果について重複する説明は省略する。
本発明の実施形態3を図23から図25によって説明する。この実施形態3では、第2短絡配線部側接続部244と、共通配線側接続部246とが別途に設けられたものを示す。なお、上記した実施形態1と同様の構造、作用及び効果について重複する説明は省略する。
本発明の実施形態4を図26から図29によって説明する。この実施形態4では、共通配線325に連なる共通配線側接続部346を静電気誘引部352としたものを示す。なお、上記した実施形態1と同様の構造、作用及び効果について重複する説明は省略する。
本発明の実施形態5を図30によって説明する。この実施形態5では、上記した実施形態1から誘引部接続部54を省略したものを示す。なお、上記した実施形態1と同様の構造、作用及び効果について重複する説明は省略する。
本発明の実施形態6を図31によって説明する。この実施形態6では、上記した実施形態1において、第2短絡配線部533と誘引部接続部554とを連ねたものを示す。なお、上記した実施形態1と同様の構造、作用及び効果について重複する説明は省略する。
本発明の実施形態7を図32または図33によって説明する。この実施形態7では、上記した実施形態1から静電気誘引部652及び誘引部接続部654の構成を変更したものを示す。なお、上記した実施形態1と同様の構造、作用及び効果について重複する説明は省略する。
本発明は上記記述及び図面によって説明した実施形態に限定されるものではなく、例えば次のような実施形態も本発明の技術的範囲に含まれる。
(1)上記した各実施形態では、静電気保護回路部に設ける静電気保護回路素子(半導体機能素子)としてTFT型のダイオードを例示したが、それ以外にも、例えばツェナーダイオードやバリスタなどを用いることも可能である。その場合、静電気保護回路素子(ツェナーダイオードまたはバリスタ)を2つの電極部、2つの半導体機能部側開口部を有する保護部、及び各半導体機能部側開口部を通して各電極部に接続される半導体部を有するものの、ゲート電極部を有さない構成とすることができる。
