本发明提供一种顶栅自对准金属氧化物半导体TFT及其制作方法和显示面板。以下将分别进行详细说明。
参阅图2所示,在本发明的第一实施例中,提供一种顶栅自对准金属氧化物半导体TFT,其包括:一有源层204、一依次设置于所述有源层204上方的栅极绝缘层206和栅极207,以及一设置在所述有源层204和所述栅极绝缘层206之间的第一阻挡层(即下文中的标号205)。
进一步,所述顶栅自对准金属氧化物半导体TFT还包括:一设置在所述有源层204下方的第一基板(图中未标),所述第一基板包括:一衬底基板201、一设置与所述衬底基板201上的遮光层202、一设置于所述遮光层202上且覆盖所述遮光层202的缓冲层203。具体地,所述衬底基板201为玻璃基板,但不限于此,也可以为PI基板或其他基板。所述遮光层202的材料为金属,优选的,所述遮光层202的材料包括钼(Mo)、铜(Cu)、钛(Ti)中的一种或多种合金。所述缓冲层203的厚度可以为1000埃至5000埃,所述缓冲层203为氧化硅(SiOx)薄膜、氮化硅(SiNx)薄膜、或氧化硅薄膜和氮化硅薄膜交替层叠设置形成复合薄膜。
进一步,所述有源层204的厚度可以为100埃至1000埃,其材料为金属氧化物半导体材料,例如包括氧化铟镓锌(IGZO)、氧化铟锌锡(IZTO)、氧化铟镓锌锡中的一种或多种。另外,所述有源层204的面积小于所述遮光层,且所述遮光层202在衬底基板201上的正投影覆盖所述有源层204在衬底基板201上的正投影,从而使得所述遮光层202能够对有源层204进行完全遮盖,防止有源层204收到光线照射造成TFT阈值电压负漂,提升TFT的稳定性。
在第一实施例中,所述有源层204设置在所述缓冲层203上且对应于所述遮光层202上方,所述有源层204包括:一对应于栅极207的沟道区2041以及分别位于所述沟道区两侧的一源极接触区2042和一漏极接触区2043。所述有源层204上方设有一栅极绝缘层206和栅极207。其中,栅极绝缘层206为氧化硅薄膜、氮化硅薄膜、或氧化硅薄膜和氮化硅薄膜交替层叠设置形成的复合薄膜。所述栅极207的材料包括钼(Mo)、铜(Cu)、钛(Ti)中的一种或多种合金。

由于在现有对制备有源层204的过程中,即在进行如氧化铟镓锌(IGZO)图案化后,进行栅极绝缘层206的化学气相沉积时,等离子体会对氧化铟镓锌造成伤害,影响器件特性与可靠性,因此,本发明第一实施例中,在所述有源层204和所述栅极绝缘层206之间设置有第一阻挡层。所述第一阻挡层为金属氧化层205,具体的,所述金属氧化层205的材料为二氧化钛或三氧化钼。由于在所述有源层204上喷涂并沉积一层很薄的金属层(与金属氧化层205采用相同的标号),所述金属层的厚度范围为10埃至50埃,因此,当对该金属层加热氧化后可阻挡后继对栅极绝缘层206的化学气相沉积(例如PEVCD制程)的等离子体对有源层204的伤害,从而改善顶栅自对准金属氧化物半导体TFT器件的可靠性。另外,所述金属层经氧化后形成金属氧化层205,与有源层204反应,使得有源层204的含氧量降低,从而进一步提升顶栅自对准金属氧化物半导体TFT器件的电子迁移率。
在本实施例中,所述顶栅自对准金属氧化物半导体TFT还包括:一设置在所述缓冲层上且覆盖所述栅极207和所述有源层204的层间绝缘层208、一设置在所述层间绝缘层208上的源极212和漏极213、一设置在在所述层间绝缘层208上且覆盖所述源极212和所述漏极213的钝化层214。所述源极212和所述漏极213分别与所述有源层204的源极接触区2042和漏极接触区2043连接。其中,所述层间绝缘层208为氧化硅薄膜、氮化硅薄膜、或氧化硅薄膜和氮化硅薄膜交替层叠设置形成的复合薄膜。所述源极212和所述漏极213的材料包括钼、铝、铜、钛中的一种或多种的合金。
在本发明的第一实施例中,所述层间绝缘层208上设有对应于源极接触区2042和漏极接触区2043的一第一源极接触孔209和一第一漏极接触孔210,所述源极212和所述漏极213分别通过所述第一源极接触孔209和所述第一漏极接触孔210与所述有源层204的源极接触区2042和漏极接触区2043连接。
另外,在本发明的第一实施例中,在所述层间绝缘层208和所述缓冲层203上且对应于所述遮光层202的上方设置有一第一接信号过孔211,所述第一接信号过孔211依次穿过层间绝缘层208和缓冲层203。所述源极212通过所述第一接信号过孔211与所述遮光层202相连,从而使得所述遮光层202上产生稳定的电压,能够避免产生浮栅效应,保证TFT器件的工作稳定性。此外,所述第一源极接触孔209和所述第一漏极接触孔210以及第一接信号过孔211在同一道光刻制程中形成。

本发明还提供一种显示面板,所述显示面板包括顶栅自对准金属氧化物半导体TFT。所述顶栅自对准金属氧化物半导体TFT的具体结构如上文所述,在此不再赘述。
参阅图4,图4为本发明的第一实施例中的顶栅自对准金属氧化物半导体TFT的方法步骤示意图。
结合图2所示,在本发明的第一实施例中,本发明提供一种顶栅自对准金属氧化物半导体TFT的制作方法,其中,所述顶栅自对准金属氧化物半导体TFT的结构如上文第一实施例中所述的TFT结构,在此不再赘述。
所述方法包括以下步骤:
步骤S410:提供一衬底基板,在所述衬底基板上形成一遮光层,在所述衬底基板上形成一覆盖所述遮光层的缓冲层,在所述缓冲层上形成一对应于所述遮光层上方的有源层。
在此步骤中,所述衬底基板为玻璃基板,但不限于此,也可以为PI基板或其他基板。所述遮光层的材料为金属,优选的,所述遮光层的材料包括钼(Mo)、铜(Cu)、钛(Ti)中的一种或多种合金。所述缓冲层为氧化硅(SiOx)薄膜、氮化硅(SiNx)薄膜、或氧化硅薄膜和氮化硅薄膜交替层叠设置形成复合薄膜。
所述有源层的厚度可以为100埃至1000埃,其材料为金属氧化物半导体材料,例如包括氧化铟镓锌(IGZO)、氧化铟锌锡(IZTO)、氧化铟镓锌锡中的一种或多种。另外,所述有源层的面积小于所述遮光层,且所述遮光层在衬底基板上的正投影覆盖所述有源层在衬底基板上的正投影,从而使得所述遮光层能够对有源层进行完全遮盖,防止有源层收到光线照射造成TFT阈值电压负漂,提升TFT的稳定性。
步骤S420:在所述缓冲层上沉积一覆盖所述有源层的金属层,并且对所述金属层进行氧化处理,以形成金属氧化层。
在此步骤中,所述金属层的材料为钛或钼,对其进行氧化处理,形成二氧化钛或三氧化钼。
所述金属层经氧化后形成金属氧化层,与有源层反应,使得有源层的含氧量(稍许)降低,从而进一步提升顶栅自对准金属氧化物半导体TFT器件的电子迁移率。
步骤S430:在所述金属氧化层上形成一栅极绝缘层,在所述栅极绝缘层上沉积一栅极金属层。
其中,所述栅极绝缘层为氧化硅薄膜、氮化硅薄膜、或氧化硅薄膜和氮化硅薄膜交替层叠设置形成的复合薄膜。所述栅极金属层的材料包括钼(Mo)、铜(Cu)、钛(Ti)中的一种或多种合金。
步骤S440:在所述栅极金属层上形成一光阻层,并且对所述光阻层进行图形化处理,以定义出栅极图案。
利用黄光制程对光阻层进行图形化处理,保留下来的光阻层在所述栅极金属层上定义出栅极图案。
步骤S450:以所述光阻层为阻挡层,对所述栅极金属层进行刻蚀,以形成对应于所述有源层上方的栅极。
以所述光阻层为阻挡层,对所述栅极金属层进行湿刻蚀,以形成对应于有源层上方的栅极。
步骤S460:以所述光阻层和所述栅极为阻挡层,对所述栅极绝缘层进行刻蚀,以形成相应的栅极绝缘层。
以光阻层和所述栅极为阻挡层,对所述栅极绝缘层进行干刻蚀。仅保留栅极下方的部分,其余部分全部均被刻蚀去除,保留的栅极绝缘层位于有源层上方。由于在步骤S450和步骤S460中,采用同一光罩,因此,在步骤S460中,保留的栅极绝缘层与所述栅极上下基本对齐,由于栅极是湿刻蚀方式形成的,栅极绝缘层是干刻蚀方式形成的,因此,在实际制备过程中,所述栅极绝缘层比所述栅极稍许宽一些。
步骤S470:以所述光阻层、所述栅极和所述栅极绝缘层为阻挡层,对所述金属氧化层进行刻蚀,以形成相应的金属氧化层,所述栅极、所述栅极绝缘层、所述金属氧化层在所述有源层上限定出对应所述栅极的沟道区以及分别位于沟道区两侧的源极接触区和漏极接触区。
继续使用同一光罩,以所述光阻层、所述栅极和所述栅极绝缘层为阻挡层,对所述金属氧化层进行刻蚀,仅保留栅极绝缘层下方的部分,其余部分被刻蚀,保留的金属氧化层位于有源层。保留的金属氧化层与保留的栅极绝缘层上下基本对齐。所述栅极、所述栅极绝缘层、所述金属氧化层在所述有源层上限定出对应所述栅极的沟道区以及分别位于沟道区两侧的源极接触区和漏极接触区。需说明的是,所述栅极绝缘层具有一定的厚度,且避免在对栅极绝缘层刻蚀过程中对有源层的影响,因此,未对对应于漏极接触区和源极接触区的金属氧化层进行刻蚀,具体过程如下文第二实施例所述。
由于在所述有源层上喷涂并沉积一层很薄的金属层,当对该金属层加热氧化后可阻挡后继对栅极绝缘层的化学气相沉积(例如PEVCD制程)的等离子体对有源层的伤害,从而改善顶栅自对准金属氧化物半导体TFT器件的可靠性。
步骤S480:以所述光阻层、所述栅极、所述栅极绝缘层、所述金属氧化层为阻挡层,对所述有源层进行导体化处理,在导体化制程结束之后,剥离所述光阻层。
所述有源层的厚度可以为100埃至1000埃,其材料为金属氧化物半导体材料,例如包括氧化铟镓锌(IGZO)、氧化铟锌锡(IZTO)、氧化铟镓锌锡中的一种或多种。对有源层进行导体化处理,使得源极接触区和漏极接触区的金属氧化物半导体材料变为导体,沟道区的金属氧化物半导体材料保持半导体特性。
对有源层进行导体化处理的方法为等离子体处理,降低金属氧化物半导体材料中的氧元素含量,使得金属氧化物半导体材料的电阻率下降,变为导体。所述等离子体包括氦气等离子体、氩气等离子体、氨气等离子体中的一种或多种。
在导体化制程结束后,剥离光阻层。
步骤S490:在所述缓冲层上形成一覆盖所述栅极和所述有源层的层间绝缘层;在所述层间绝缘层上形成分别对应于所述源极接触区和所述漏极接触区的一第一源极接触孔和一第一漏极接触孔。

进一步,在步骤S490中进一步包括:在所述层间绝缘层和所述缓冲层上形成一第一接信号过孔;所述源极通过所述第一接信号过孔连接至所述遮光层。所述源极通过所述第一接信号过孔与所述遮光层相连,从而使得所述遮光层上产生稳定的电压,能够避免产生浮栅效应,保证TFT器件的工作稳定性。此外,所述第一源极接触孔和所述第一漏极接触孔以及第一接信号过孔在同一道光刻制程中形成。
步骤S4100:在所述层间绝缘层上形成一源极和一漏极,所述源极和所述漏极分别通过所述第一源极接触孔和所述第一漏极接触孔与所述源极接触区和所述漏极接触区相连。
所述源极和所述漏极的材料包括钼、铝、铜、钛中的一种或多种的合金。所述源极和所述漏极是通过沉积金属层并且进行图形化处理后得到的。
