したがって本発明の課題は、前述した従来技術が有する種々の欠点を解消し得る電界効果トランジスタ及びその製造方法を提供することにある。
前記酸化物半導体層は、インジウム(In)元素、亜鉛(Zn)元素及び添加元素(X)を含む酸化物から構成され、
添加元素(X)はタンタル(Ta)元素、ストロンチウム(Sr)元素及びニオブ(Nb)元素から選ばれる少なくとも1種の元素であり、

添加元素(X)はタンタル(Ta)元素、ストロンチウム(Sr)元素及びニオブ(Nb)元素から選ばれる少なくとも1種の元素であり、
各元素の原子比が式(1)ないし(3)の全てを満たすスパッタリングターゲット材であって、
フレキシブル配線板に用いられる基材又は250℃以下のガラス転移点を有する基材上に設けられ且つ前記スパッタリングターゲット材に由来する酸化物半導体層、を備えた電界効果トランジスタの製造用スパッタリングターゲット材を提供するものである。

本発明のFETは、後述するとおり、好適には、スパッタリング法によって基材上に酸化物半導体層を形成する工程と、酸化物半導体層を形成した後に、電気特性改善のためにポストアニールする工程と、を備えた方法によって製造される。一般に、酸化物半導体層を形成後に、ポストアニールする場合、従来の酸化物半導体層は、高温で処理しなければならないため、耐熱性の低い基材が変形ないし溶融してしまうことから、素子として機能させることができない。しかし本発明によれば、耐熱性が十分に高くない材料、例えばフレキシブル配線板に用いられる材料や、ガラス転移点が低い材料(例えば250℃以下のガラス転移点を有する材料)を基材として用いた場合であっても、スパッタリングによって膜を形成した後、比較的低い温度によってアニールすることが可能となることから、酸化物半導体層を形成することが可能である。
同図に示すFET1は、基材10の一面に形成されている。基材10の一面にはチャネル層20、ソース電極30及びドレイン電極31が配置されており、これを覆うようにゲート絶縁膜40が形成されている。ゲート絶縁膜40上には、ゲート電極50が配置されている。そして最も上部に保護層60が配置されている。この構造を有するFET1において、例えばチャネル層20が、酸化物半導体層から構成されている。したがって、本発明にいう「基材上に設けられた酸化物半導体層」とは、(i)基材の表面に接して設けられた別の一又は二以上の層を介して酸化物半導体層が設けられている場合と、(ii)酸化物半導体層が、基材の表面に接して設けられている場合との双方を包含する。
具体的には、In及びXに関しては以下の式(1)で表される原子比を満たすことが好ましい(式中のXは、前記添加元素の含有比の総和とする。以下、式(2)及び(3)についても同じである。)。
0.4≦(In+X)/(In+Zn+X)≦0.8 (1)
Znに関しては以下の式(2)で表される原子比を満たすことが好ましい。

0.48≦(In+X)/(In+Zn+X)≦0.78 (1-3)
0.53≦(In+X)/(In+Zn+X)≦0.75 (1-4)
0.54≦(In+X)/(In+Zn+X)≦0.74 (1-5)
0.58≦(In+X)/(In+Zn+X)≦0.70 (1-6)
0.22≦Zn/(In+Zn+X)≦0.52 (2-3)

0.0025≦X/(In+Zn+X)≦0.010 (3-4)
0.003≦X/(In+Zn+X)≦0.009 (3-5)
これらの添加元素のうち、Ta、Sr及びNbのいずれか1種類を用いることが、本発明の所期の効果が十分に奏される点から好ましく、特に好ましくはTa又はNbのみを用い、とりわけ好ましくはTaのみを用いる。ただしTa、Sr及びNbの3種類を用いてもよい。
0.970≦In/(In+X)≦0.999 (4)
0.980≦In/(In+X)≦0.997 (4-2)
0.990≦In/(In+X)≦0.995 (4-3)
0.990<In/(In+X)≦0.993 (4-4)
電界効果移動度を更に高める観点から、本発明のFETにおける酸化物半導体層はアモルファス構造を有することが好ましい。
基材を構成する材料としては、樹脂基材が好ましく、例えばポリエステル系高分子、シリコーン系高分子、アクリル系高分子、ポリオレフィン系高分子、及びこれらの共重合体からなる群より選択される一種又は二種以上が挙げられる。またこれら樹脂基材は250℃以下のガラス転移点を有する材料から構成されていることがより好ましい。これらの材料は例えばフィルムの形態をしている。
本発明において、ガラス転移点はJIS-K-7121-1987(プラスチックの転移温度測定方法)に準拠し、DTA法により求める。測定装置としては、典型的には、NETZSCH社製STA 2500 Regulus等を用いて、中間点ガラス転移温度を測定する。
同様の観点から、本発明のFETにおける基材は、熱膨張係数が、5ppm/℃以上80ppm/℃以下であることが好ましく、5ppm/℃以上50ppm/℃以下であることが更に好ましく、5ppm/℃以上20ppm/℃以下であることが一層好ましい。

スパッタリング時の基材の温度は、例えば10℃以上250℃以下に設定することができる。また基材のガラス転移点を超えない基材温度でスパッタリングをしてもよい。
スパッタリング時の到達真空度は例えば0.001Pa未満に設定することができる。
スパッタガス(雰囲気)としては例えばArとO2との混合ガスを用いることができる。この場合、スパッタガスにおけるO2ガス濃度は21vol%以上49vol%以下、特に22vol%以上45vol%以下に設定することができる。O2ガス濃度をこの範囲に設定することで、スパッタ層を首尾よく半導体化することができる。
スパッタガス圧は例えば0.1Pa以上3Pa以下に設定することができる。

FET1の作製においては、基材10としてポリエチレンナフタレートフィルム(東洋紡株式会社製テオネックス(登録商標))(ガラス転移点:155℃)を用いた。基材10上に、ソース電極30及びドレイン電極31としてMo薄膜を、DCスパッタリング装置を用いて成膜し、上述の方法で得られたターゲット材を使用して、下記の条件でスパッタリング成膜を行い、厚さ約30nmのチャネル層20を成膜した。
・成膜装置:DCスパッタリング装置トッキ株式会社製SML-464
・到達真空度:1×10-4Pa未満
・スパッタガス:Ar/O2混合ガス
・スパッタガス圧:0.4Pa
・O2ガス濃度:以下の表1に示すとおり。
・基材温度:室温
・スパッタリング電力:3W/cm2
次に、ゲート絶縁膜40としてSiOx薄膜を下記の条件で成膜した。
・成膜装置:プラズマCVD装置サムコ株式会社製PD-2202L
・成膜ガス:SiH4/N2O/N2混合ガス
・成膜圧力:110Pa
・基材温度:150℃
次に、ゲート電極50としてMo薄膜を、前記DCスパッタリング装置を用いて成膜した。
保護層60として、SiOx薄膜を、前記プラズマCVD装置を用いて成膜した。最後に、150℃でアニール処理を実施した。アニール処理の時間は60分とした。このようにしてFET1を製造した。
得られたFET1におけるチャネル層20の組成がターゲット材の組成と同じであることを、X線光電子分光法(XPS:X-RayPhotoelectron Spectroscopy)によって確認している(以下の実施例及び比較例についても同じである。)。XPSは、試料表面にX線を照射することで生じる光電子エネルギーを測定し、試料の構成元素と、その電子状態を分析できる測定方法である。したがって、表1に示す各元素の組成は、チャネル層20とターゲット材とで同一である。
実施例1において、InとZnとTa、又はInとZnとNbとの原子比が、以下の表1及び表2に示す値となるように各原料粉末を混合してターゲット材を製造した。また、スパッタリングを、以下の表1及び表2に示す条件で行った。これら以外は実施例1と同様にしてFET1を得た。
実施例及び比較例で得られたターゲット材についてSEM観察を行い、以下の方法でIn2O3相の結晶粒のサイズ及びZn3In2O6相の結晶粒のサイズを測定した。それらの結果を以下の表1及び表2に示す。
日立ハイテクノロジーズ製の走査型電子顕微鏡SU3500を用いて、ターゲット材の表面をSEM観察するとともに、結晶の構成相や結晶形状の評価を行った。
具体的には、ターゲット材を切断して得られた切断面を、エメリー紙#180、#400、#800、#1000、#2000を用いて段階的に研磨し、最後にバフ研磨して鏡面に仕上げた。鏡面仕上げ面をSEM観察した。結晶形状の評価では、倍率1000倍、87.5μm×125μmの範囲のBSE-COMP像を無作為に10視野撮影しSEM像を得た。
得られたSEM像を、画像処理ソフトウェア:ImageJ 1.51k(http://imageJ.nih.gov/ij/、提供元:アメリカ国立衛生研究所(NIH:National Institutes of Health))によって解析した。具体的な手順は以下のとおりである。
SEM像撮影時に用いたサンプルを、1100℃で1時間サーマルエッチングを施し、SEM観察を行うことで図2に示す粒界が現れた画像を得た。得られた画像に対し、先ずIn2O3相(図2中、白く見える領域A)の粒界に沿って描画を行った。すべての描画が完了した後、粒子解析を実施(Analyze→Analyze Particles)して、各粒子における面積を得た。その後、得られた各粒子における面積から、面積円相当径を算出した。10視野において算出された全粒子の面積円相当径の算術平均値を、In2O3相の結晶粒のサイズとした。続いてZn3In2O6相の粒界に沿って描画を行い、同様に解析を施すことによって得られた各粒子における面積から、面積円相当径を算出した。10視野において算出された全粒子の面積円相当径の算術平均値を、Zn3In2O6相の結晶粒のサイズとした。
また、サーマルエッチング前の粒界のないBSE-COMP像について、粒子解析を行うことで総面積におけるIn2O3相の面積の比率を算出した。10視野において算出された全粒子のそれらの算術平均値を、In2O3相面積率とした。また100からIn2O3相面積率を差し引くことで、Zn3In2O6相面積率を算出した。
実施例及び比較例で得られたFET1について、ドレイン電圧Vd=5Vでの伝達特性の測定を行った。測定した伝達特性は、電界効果移動度μ(cm2/Vs)、SS(Subthreshold Swing)値(V/dec)及びしきい電圧Vth(V)である。伝達特性は、Agilent Technologies株式会社製Semiconductor Device Analyzer B1500Aによって測定した。測定結果を表1及び表2に示す。なお表に示していないが、各実施例で得られたFET1のチャネル層20がアモルファス構造であることをXRD測定によって本発明者は確認している。
電界効果移動度とは、MOSFET(Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor)動作の飽和領域において、ドレイン電圧を一定としたときのゲート電圧に対するドレイン電流の変化から求めたチャネル移動度のことであり、値が大きいほど伝達特性が良好である。
SS値とは、しきい電圧近傍でドレイン電流を1桁上昇させるのに必要なゲート電圧のことであり、値が小さいほど伝達特性が良好である。
しきい電圧とは、ドレイン電極に正電圧をかけ、ゲート電極に正負いずれかの電圧をかけたときにドレイン電流が流れ、1nAとなった場合の電圧であり、値が0Vに近いことが好ましい。詳細には、-2V以上であることが更に好ましく、-1V以上であることが一層好ましく、0V以上であることが更に一層好ましい。また、3V以下であることが更に好ましく、2V以下であることが一層好ましく、1V以下であることが更に一層好ましい。具体的には、-2V以上3V以下であることが更に好ましく、-1V以上2V以下であることが一層好ましく、0V以上1V以下であることが更に一層好ましい。
なお、表に示していないが、実施例のターゲット材においては、In2O3相及びZn3In2O6相の双方に添加元素(X)が含まれることを、EDX測定によって本発明者は確認している。
本発明に係るターゲット材を用いてスパッタリングを行うと、従来のターゲット材を用いた場合に比較して、スパッタリング後に低温でポストアニール処理しても、高い電界効果移動度を有することが可能であることから、十分な電界効果移動度を示さない不良品の発生を抑制することができ、延いては、廃棄物の発生を低減することができる。つまり、それら廃棄物の処分におけるエネルギーコストを削減することが可能となる。また低温でのポストアニール工程自体が製造時のエネルギーコストを低減することも可能としている。このことは天然資源の持続可能な管理及び効率的な利用、並びに脱炭素(カーボンニュートラル)化を達成することにつながる。
