本发明实施例提供了一种薄膜晶体管,能够改善薄膜晶体管的阈值电压漂移现象,提高包含该薄膜晶体管的阵列基板的稳定性和可靠性。
具体地,如图1所示,该薄膜晶体管包括有源层4和栅极绝缘层3,有源层4的材质为金属氧化物半导体,在薄膜晶体管形成过程中,栅极绝缘层3向有源层4输氧,以降低有源层4和栅极绝缘层3 之间的接触界面的界面态密度和可动杂质浓度,从而能够改善薄膜晶体管的阈值电压漂移现象,提高包含该薄膜晶体管的阵列基板的稳定性和可靠性。
具体地,栅极绝缘层3可以包括至少一层膜层,其中,栅极绝缘层3中与有源层4接触的一层膜层的材质为SiOx、Al2O3、HfO2、ZrO2、TiO2、Y2O3、La2O3、Ta2O5中的一种,其中,1.5≤x≤2.8。有源层4的材质为IGZO、ZnON、ITZO、ZTO、ZIO、IGO、AZTO中的一种,而且,在沉积形成有源层4的过程中,沉积气氛中的氧含量低于20%。因此,栅极绝缘层3中与有源层4接触的膜层的氧含量较高,有源层4的氧含量较低,在后续退火过程中,栅极绝缘层3中与有源层4接触的膜层能够向有源层4输氧,栅极绝缘层3和有源层4之间的接触界面为富氧态,界面键合氧和游离态氧含量高,从而能够有效降低界面态密度和可动杂质浓度,有利于提升器件稳定性和可靠性,并且,栅极绝缘层3中与有源层4接触的膜层向有源层4输氧,还能够补充有源层4中的氧空位,进一步改善薄膜晶体管的阈值电压漂移现象,进一步提高包含该薄膜晶体管的阵列基板的稳定性和可靠性。
而现有技术中,栅极绝缘层的材质通常为SiOx,其中x<1.5,有源层的材质为IGZO、ZnON、ITZO、ZTO、ZIO、IGO、AZTO中的一种因此,现有技术中形成的栅极绝缘层和有源层的氧含量均较低,不会导致栅极绝缘层向有源层输氧而使得栅极绝缘层与有源层之间的接触界面为富氧态,从而栅极绝缘层和有源层之间的接触界面的界面态密度和可动杂质浓度较高,使得薄膜晶体管的阈值电压漂移现象严重,而且,现有技术中,在沉积形成有源层的过程中,沉积气氛中的氧含量大于等于20%,因此,在形成的栅极绝缘层和有源层的氧含量均较低的情况下,形成的有源层中的氧含量可能相对高于栅极绝缘层中的氧含量,导致有源层中的氧可能会进入栅极绝缘层中以在有源层与栅绝缘层之间达到氧平衡,从而有源层中会形成氧空位,使得薄膜晶体管的阈值电压漂移现象更加严重,包含该薄膜晶体管的阵列基板的稳定性和可靠性不好。
进一步地,栅极绝缘层3包括至少两层膜层,其中,不与有源 层4接触的一层膜层的材质为SiOx、Al2O3、HfO2、ZrO2、TiO2、Y2O3、La2O3、Ta2O5、SiNx、SiON中的一种,其中,x≤2.8。
此外,如图1所示,薄膜晶体管还包括位于栅极绝缘层3下方的栅极2、以及与有源层4连接的源极5和漏极6,其中,源极5和漏极6位于有源层4上方,因此,为了防止在构图形成源极5和漏极6的过程中,对有源层4的用于作为沟道的沟道区的性能产生影响,本发明实施例中优选薄膜晶体管还包括位于有源层4的用于作为沟道的沟道区上的刻蚀阻挡层7。
具体地,刻蚀阻挡层7可以包括至少一层膜层,每一层膜层的材质为SiOx、SiNx、SiON、Al2O3、TEOS中的一种,其中,x<1.5。栅极2、源极5和漏极6的材质可以为Mo、Al/Nd、Al/Nd/Mo、Mo/Al/Nd/Mo、Au/Ti、Pt/Ti等金属或合金。
此外,本发明实施例中的薄膜晶体管还包括用于支撑栅极2、栅极绝缘层3、有源层4、源极5、漏极6和刻蚀阻挡层7的衬底基板1,其中衬底基板1可以为玻璃基板、塑料基板(例如聚酰亚胺基板)、硅基板等。
图2为本发明实施例中(图中称为改善后)的薄膜晶体管和现有技术中(图中称为改善前)的薄膜晶体管在80度高温正压应力测试下的阈值电压漂移量与时间之间的关系图。具体地,如图2所示,对于现有技术中的薄膜晶体管,测试进行2小时(h)后,阈值电压正漂3.217伏特(V);对于本发明实施例中的薄膜晶体管,测试进行2h后,阈值电压仅正漂0.878V,仅为现有技术中的薄膜晶体管的阈值电压漂移量的四分之一左右,测试进行10h后,阈值电压正漂4.448V,由图2可以看出,本发明实施例中的薄膜晶体管的可靠性和稳定性明显优于现有技术中的薄膜晶体管。
本发明实施例提供了一种薄膜晶体管,该薄膜晶体管包括有源层4和栅极绝缘层3,有源层4的材质为金属氧化物半导体,在薄膜晶体管形成过程中,栅极绝缘层3向有源层4输氧,以降低有源层4和栅极绝缘层3之间的接触界面的界面态密度和可动杂质浓度,从而能够改善薄膜晶体管的阈值电压漂移现象,进而提高包含该薄膜晶体 管的阵列基板的稳定性和可靠性,改善包含该阵列基板的显示装置的显示效果。

进一步地,第一过孔9的第一部分91的宽深比与第一过孔9的第二部分92的宽深比之比在1.5和5之间。
可选地,如图3所示,透明导电层包括位于阵列基板的周边区域内的第一布线11,阵列基板还包括位于周边区域内的第二布线12、以及贯穿钝化层8和栅极绝缘层3的第二过孔13,第二布线12和薄膜晶体管的栅极2同层设置,第一布线11通过第二过孔13与第二布线12电连接。
进一步地,如图3所示,当钝化层8包括三层膜层时,第二过孔13包括上下设置的第一部分131和第二部分132,第一部分131 贯穿钝化层8的两层膜层,第二部分132贯穿钝化层8的一层膜层和栅极绝缘层3,第一部分131的宽深比比第二部分132的宽深比大,从而使得第二过孔13的侧壁呈台阶状,侧壁的倾斜角度较小,提高了第一布线11的爬坡能力,从而能够有效减少断线的发生概率,提高阵列基板的性能和良率。
进一步地,第二过孔的第一部分131的宽深比与第二过孔的第二部分132的宽深比之比在1.5和5之间。
此外,如图3所示,本发明实施例中的阵列基板还可以包括和栅极2同层设置的第一结构以及和源极5和漏极6同层设置的第二结构,示例性地,第一结构和第二结构可以分别为位于阵列基板的周边区域内的走线,或者,第一结构和第二结构存在交叉区域,其交叉位置处可以作为电容使用。

实施例三

具体地,如图1所示,在衬底基板1上,使用溅射等方法形成栅极金属层,然后,经过构图工艺,形成包括栅极2的图形。
步骤S402、在形成了包括栅极的图形的衬底基板上,形成栅极绝缘层。
具体地,如图1所示,在形成了包括栅极2的图形的衬底基板1上,使用常压化学气相沉积、低压化学气相沉积、等离子辅助体化学气相淀积、溅射等方法,形成栅极绝缘层3。
步骤S403、在形成了栅极绝缘层的衬底基板上,形成金属氧化 物半导体层,然后,经过构图工艺,形成包括有源层的图形。
具体地,如图1所示,在形成了栅极绝缘层3的衬底基板1上,使用溅射、溶胶-凝胶、真空蒸镀、喷涂、喷墨打印等方法,形成金属氧化物半导体层,然后,经过构图工艺,形成包括有源层4的图形。
步骤S404、在形成了包括有源层的图形的衬底基板上,形成源漏极金属层,然后,经过构图工艺,形成包括源极和漏极的图形,以形成薄膜晶体管。
具体地,如图1所示,在形成了包括有源层4的图形的衬底基板1上,使用溅射等方法形成源漏极金属层,然后,经过构图工艺,形成包括源极5和漏极6的图形,以形成薄膜晶体管。
在上述制作过程中,栅极绝缘层3向有源层4输氧,以降低有源层4和栅极绝缘层3之间的接触界面的界面态密度和可动杂质浓度,从而能够改善薄膜晶体管的阈值电压漂移现象,进而提高包含该薄膜晶体管的阵列基板的稳定性和可靠性,改善包含该阵列基板的显示装置的显示效果。
具体地,栅极绝缘层3包括至少一层膜层,栅极绝缘层3中与有源层4接触的一层膜层的材质为SiOx、Al2O3、HfO2、ZrO2、TiO2、Y2O3、La2O3、Ta2O5中的一种,其中,1.5≤x≤2.8。有源层4的材质为IGZO、ZnON、ITZO、ZTO、ZIO、IGO、AZTO中的一种,通过沉积的方法在形成了栅极绝缘层3的衬底基板1上,形成金属氧化物半导体层,其中,在沉积形成金属氧化物半导体层的过程中,沉积气氛中的氧含量低于20%。因此,本发明实施例中的栅极绝缘层3中与有源层4接触的膜层的氧含量较高,有源层4的氧含量较低,在后续退火过程中,栅极绝缘层3中与有源层4接触的膜层能够向有源层4输氧,栅极绝缘层3和有源层4之间的接触界面为富氧态,界面键合氧和游离态氧含量高,从而能够有效降低界面态密度和可动杂质浓度,有利于提升器件稳定性和可靠性,并且,栅极绝缘层3中与有源层4接触的膜层向有源层4输氧,还能够补充有源层4中的氧空位,进一步改善薄膜晶体管的阈值电压漂移现象,进一步提高包含该薄膜晶体管的阵列基板的稳定性和可靠性。
可选地,本发明实施例通过化学气相沉积的方法,在形成了包括栅极2的图形的衬底基板1上,形成栅极绝缘层3,其中,在沉积形成栅极绝缘层3的过程中,沉积气氛中N2O和SiH4的流量比大于60,以使得形成的栅极绝缘层3的氧含量较高。
本发明实施例通过溅射沉积的方法,在形成了栅极绝缘层3的衬底基板1上,形成金属氧化物半导体层,然后经过构图工艺形成包括有源层4的图形,其中,可选地,在沉积形成金属氧化物半导体层的过程中,沉积气氛中O2和Ar的流量比在1/20和1/7之间,以使得形成的有源层4的氧含量较低。
此外,为了防止在构图形成包括源极5和漏极6的图形过程中,对有源层4的用于作为沟道的沟道区的性能产生影响,本发明实施例中,优选地,在形成包括有源层4的图形之后,在形成源漏极金属层之前,还包括:在形成了有源层4的图形的衬底基板1上,形成一层刻蚀阻挡薄膜,然后,经过构图工艺,在有源层4的用于作为沟道的沟道区上形成刻蚀阻挡层7。
本发明实施例提供了一种薄膜晶体管的制作方法,该制作方法包括在衬底基板上形成栅极,栅极绝缘层,有源层,源极和漏极,以形成薄膜晶体管,其中,有源层的材质为金属氧化物半导体,栅极绝缘层向有源层输氧,以降低有源层和栅极绝缘层之间的接触界面的界面态密度和可动杂质浓度,从而能够改善薄膜晶体管的阈值电压漂移现象,进而提高包含该薄膜晶体管的阵列基板的稳定性和可靠性,改善包含该阵列基板的显示装置的显示效果。
实施例四
此外,本发明实施例还提供了一种用于制作实施例二中所述的阵列基板的制作方法,该阵列基板的制作方法包括实施例三中所述的薄膜晶体管的制作方法。
进一步地,阵列基板的制作方法还包括以下步骤S501至S502。
步骤S501、在形成了薄膜晶体管的衬底基板上,形成钝化层,钝化层包括至少一层膜层。
具体地,在形成了薄膜晶体管的衬底基板上,使用热生长、常 压化学气相沉积、低压化学气相沉积、等离子辅助体化学气相淀积、溅射等方法,连续生长钝化层8,如图3所示。
需要说明的是,现有技术中,通常在形成了薄膜晶体管的衬底基板1上,形成钝化层8之后,还对阵列基板进行退火,示例性地,退火环境为氧气、氮气或真空,退火温度为200度以上,退火时间为2-3小时。然而,发明人发现,当薄膜晶体管采用实施例三中所述的制作方法制作时,形成钝化层8之后,对阵列基板进行和现有技术相比较短时间的退火、或者不进行退火,能够更加有利于控制接触界面的氧分布,从而达到提高阵列基板的均匀性、稳定性和可靠性的目的,因此,本发明实施例中优选在形成钝化层8后,不对阵列基板进行退火,一方面提高阵列基板的均匀性、稳定性和可靠性,另一方面,还可以简化阵列基板的制作工艺,节约成本。
步骤S502、在形成了钝化层的衬底基板上,形成透明导电薄膜,然后,经过构图工艺,形成透明导电层。
具体地,在形成了钝化层8的衬底基板1上,使用溅射的方法形成透明导电薄膜,然后,经过构图工艺,形成透明导电层。
可选地,当透明导电层包括像素电极10时,本发明实施例中优选在形成钝化层8之后,在形成透明导电层之前,还包括:形成贯穿钝化层8的第一过孔9,以使得像素电极10通过第一过孔9与薄膜晶体管的漏极6电连接。
当钝化层8包括三层膜层时,形成贯穿钝化层8的第一过孔9具体包括以下步骤:首先,对钝化层8进行湿法刻蚀,在湿法刻蚀过程中,钝化层8的两层膜层被刻蚀,以形成第一过孔9的第一部分91;然后,对第一过孔9的第一部分91下方的钝化层8的一层膜层进行干法刻蚀,以形成第一过孔9的第二部分92。
该实施例中,第一过孔9的第一部分91的宽深比比第一过孔9的第二部分92的宽深比大,从而使得第一过孔9的侧壁呈台阶状,侧壁的倾斜角度较小,提高了像素电极10的爬坡能力,从而能够有效减少断线的发生概率,提高阵列基板的性能和良率。
可选地,当透明导电层包括位于阵列基板的周边区域内的第一 布线11、并且在形成栅极2的同时还形成位于阵列基板的周边区域内的第二布线12时,本发明实施例中优选在形成钝化层8之后,在形成透明导电层之前,还包括:形成贯穿钝化层8和栅极绝缘层3的第二过孔13,第一布线11通过第二过孔13与第二布线12电连接。
当钝化层8包括三层膜层时,形成贯穿钝化层8和栅极绝缘层3的第二过孔13具体包括以下步骤:首先,对钝化层8进行湿法刻蚀,在湿法刻蚀过程中,钝化层8的两层膜层被刻蚀,以形成第二过孔13的第一部分131;然后,对第二过孔13的第一部分131下方的钝化层8的一层膜层和栅极绝缘层3进行干法刻蚀,以形成第二过孔13的第二部分132。
该实施例中,第二过孔13的第一部分131的宽深比比第二过孔13的第二部分132的宽深比大,从而使得第二过孔13的侧壁呈台阶状,侧壁的倾斜角度较小,提高了第一布线11的爬坡能力,从而能够有效减少断线的发生概率,提高阵列基板的性能和良率。
此外,本发明实施例中的阵列基板的制作方法在形成透明导电层之后,还包括:对阵列基板进行退火,以减少有源层4中的缺陷数量。
示例性地,退火温度在120℃和450℃之间,退火时间在0.5小时和3小时之间,退火环境为真空、氮气、空气或者氧气。
上述实施例中仅示出了第一过孔9和第二过孔13各自单独形成的过程,然而,进一步地,为了简化阵列基板的制作工艺、节约成本,第一过孔9和第二过孔13可以同时形成。然而,由于第一过孔9的深度小于第二过孔13的深度,因此,为了使第一过孔9和第二过孔13同时形成,首先,可以通过湿法刻蚀来同时形成第一过孔9的第一部分以及第二过孔13的第一部分,该过程中,例如,可以适当调整并使第一过孔9的开口尺寸小于第二过孔13的开口尺寸,使得第一过孔9的第一部分的深度小于第二过孔13的第一部分的深度,然后,通过干法刻蚀来形成第一过孔9的第二部分以及第二过孔13的第二部分,其中,通过在湿法刻蚀的过程中适当调整第一过孔9的开口尺寸与第二过孔13的开口尺寸,使得第一过孔9的第二部分与第 二过孔13的第二部分也同时形成。
以上所述,仅为本发明的具体实施方式,但本发明的保护范围并不局限于此,任何熟悉本技术领域的技术人员在本发明揭露的技术范围内,可轻易想到变化或替换,都应涵盖在本发明的保护范围之内。因此,本发明的保护范围应以所述权利要求的保护范围为准。
