Description

N型薄膜晶体管的制作方法 技术领域
本发明涉及显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种N型薄膜晶体管的制作方法。
背景技术
平面显示器件具有机身薄、省电、无辐射等众多优点,得到了广泛的应用。现有的平面显示器件主要包括液晶显示器件(Liquid Crystal Display,LCD)及有机发光二极管显示器件(Organic Light Emitting Display,OLED)。
在平面显示器件中,薄膜晶体管(Thin Film Transistor,TFT)一般是用作开关元件来控制像素的作业,或是用作驱动元件来驱动像素。薄膜晶体管依其硅薄膜性质通常可分成非晶硅(a-Si)与多晶硅(poly-Si)两种。
由于非晶硅本身自有的缺陷问题,如缺陷太多导致的开态电流低、迁移率低、稳定性差,使它在应用中受到限制,为了弥补非晶硅本身的缺陷,扩大其在相关领域的应用,低温多晶硅(Low Temperature Poly-Silicon,LTPS)技术应运而生。
低温多晶硅薄膜由于其原子排列规则,载流子迁移率高(10~300cm2/Vs),应用于薄膜晶体管等电子元器件时,可使薄膜晶体管具有更高的驱动电流,因此在薄膜晶体管的制作工艺中广泛采用LTPS薄膜作为薄膜晶体管的核心结构之一的有源层的材料。
采用LTPS薄膜晶体管的平面显示器件具有高分辨率、反应速度快、高亮度、高开口率等优点,加上由于LTPS薄膜晶体管的硅结晶排列较非晶硅有次序,使得电子移动率相对高100倍以上,可以将外围驱动电路同时制作在玻璃基板上,达到系统整合的目标,节省空间及驱动IC的成本;同时,由于驱动IC线路直接制作于面板上,可以减少组件的对外接点,增加可靠度、维护更简单、缩短组装制程时间,进而减少应用系统设计时程及扩大设计自由度。通常平面显示器件上使用较多的为N型薄膜晶体管(NTFT),为了使得N型薄膜晶体管在低电压下能及时关闭,需要对N型薄膜晶体管的阈值电压进行调整(从1.0V移动至1.5V左右),现有技术中,通常采用离子植入的方法来调整N型薄膜晶体管的阈值电压,即对N型薄膜晶体管沟道区的多晶硅(Poly-si)进行低剂量硼离子植入来调整N型薄膜晶体管的阈值电压。
具体地,请参阅图1-图3,现有的N型薄膜晶体管的制作过程如下: 首先,请参阅图1-2,在基板1上自下而上依次制备缓冲层2和低温多晶硅层31;在所述低温多晶硅层31上涂布光阻层5;然后通过光罩对光阻层5进行曝光显影,在所述低温多晶硅层31上定义出沟道区32;随后,对沟道区32进行低剂量的硼(B)离子植入,接着,去除所述低温多晶硅层31上的光阻层5;接下来,请参阅图3,对所述低温多晶硅层31进行蚀刻和离子掺杂,形成有源层3;最后,在所述有源层3上自下而上依次制备栅极绝缘层6、栅极7、层间绝缘层8、以及源/漏极9。上述N型薄膜晶体管的制作过程中通过在沟道区32植入硼离子来调节沟道区32内的多晶硅的空穴载流子浓度,使N型薄膜晶体管的阈值电压向正方向移动,然而该方法要用昂贵的离子植入设备在一定真空下进行,生产效率较低,生产成本较高。
