Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of display technologies, and in particular, to a method for fabricating a TFT backplane and a structure thereof.
- OLED organic light emitting diodes
- OLEDs can be classified into passive OLEDs (PMOLEDs) and active OLEDs (AMOLEDs) according to the type of driving.
- the AMOLED is usually composed of a Low Temperature Poly-Silicon (LTPS) TFT backplane and an electroluminescent layer.
- LTPS Low Temperature Poly-Silicon
- Low-temperature polysilicon has high electron mobility and strong driving ability.
- low-temperature polysilicon material has the advantages of high resolution, fast reaction speed, high brightness, high aperture ratio and low energy consumption.
- the common processes for making low-temperature polysilicon are Excimer Laser Annealing (ELA), Solid Phase Crystallization (SPC), etc.
- ELA Excimer Laser Annealing
- SPC Solid Phase Crystallization
- SPC technology is easy and has a larger size due to its large size.
- the high cost advantage has become a hot research topic.
- SPC technology is further divided into direct high temperature long-time heating baking method and ion induction method.
- the ion-inducing mode induces amorphous silicon crystallization by implanting specific ions.
- the conventional SPC-based TFT backplane manufacturing method generally includes the following steps:
- Step 1 as shown in FIG. 1, a substrate 100 is provided, on which a buffer layer 200 and an amorphous silicon (a-Si) layer 300 are sequentially deposited;
- a-Si amorphous silicon
- Step 2 As shown in FIG. 2, the amorphous silicon (a-Si) layer 300 is implanted with induced ions, and then baked at a high temperature to rapidly crystallize the amorphous silicon to form a poly-Si layer 300'.
- the upper layer portion 310 of the polysilicon layer 300' has more implanted induced ions, and the lower layer portion is a semiconductor layer 320 having relatively pure polysilicon;
- Step 3 as shown in Figure 3, the upper layer portion 310 of the polysilicon layer 300' is etched away, leaving a semiconductor layer 320 with relatively pure polysilicon;
- Step 4 as shown in FIG. 4, the semiconductor layer 320 is patterned by using a photomask. Forming an island-shaped active layer 400;
- Step 5 as shown in FIG. 5, first coating the photoresist, patterning the photoresist through a mask, and then using the photoresist pattern 500 as a shielding layer, implanting dopant ions into the island-shaped active layer 400, The doped ions are implanted into the source region/drain contact region 401 on both sides of the island-shaped active layer 400, and the doped ions are not implanted into the channel region 402 in the middle of the island-shaped active layer 400;
- Step 6 as shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7, after the photoresist pattern 500 is removed, the gate insulating layer 700, the gate electrode 800, the interlayer insulating layer 900, and the source/drain 1000 are sequentially formed, and the source/drain electrodes 1000 and The source/drain contact regions 401 are in contact to complete the fabrication of the low temperature polysilicon TFT backplane.
- the above-mentioned conventional SPC-based TFT backplane manufacturing method needs to etch away the upper layer portion 310 having more implanted induced ions after implanting induced ions to crystallize the amorphous silicon to form the polysilicon layer 300'.
- the semiconductor layer 320 is patterned by a photomask to form the island-shaped active layer 400; subsequently, since the source/drain contact region 401 needs to be formed, it is necessary to use another
- the mask is used to form the photoresist pattern 500, and the dopant ions are formed on both sides of the island-shaped active layer 400 with the photoresist pattern 500 as a shielding layer to form a source/drain contact region 401.
- the process requires not only a large number of masks, but also two ion implantations, which are costly to produce.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a TFT backplane structure which is simple in process and low in production cost.
- the present invention firstly provides a method for fabricating a TFT backplane. After implanting an amorphous silicon layer into an induced ion solid phase to form a polysilicon layer, the polysilicon layer is patterned by using a halftone mask. While forming the island-shaped active layer, the upper portion of the island-shaped active layer having more implanted induced ions is etched away to form a channel region, which is more on both sides of the island-shaped active layer. The upper portion of the implanted induced ions remains as a source/drain contact region.
- the manufacturing method of the TFT backplane includes the following steps:
- Step 1 providing a substrate, sequentially depositing a buffer layer and an amorphous silicon layer on the substrate;
- Step 2 implanting an induced ion into the amorphous silicon layer, and then baking at a high temperature to rapidly solidify the amorphous silicon to form a polysilicon layer, wherein the upper portion of the polysilicon layer has more implanted induced ions, and the lower portion is a semiconductor layer having relatively pure polysilicon;
- Step 3 patterning the polysilicon layer by using a halftone mask to form an island active layer
- the upper portion of the central portion of the island-shaped active layer is etched away to form a channel region, and the upper portion on both sides of the island-shaped active layer is left as a source/drain contact region;
- Step 4 sequentially forming a gate insulating layer, a gate electrode, an interlayer insulating layer, and a source/drain on the island-shaped active layer and the buffer layer, wherein the source/drain are in contact with the source/drain contact regions.
- the substrate is a glass substrate.
- the induced ions implanted in the amorphous silicon layer in the step 2 are boron ions or nickel ions.
- the step 3 specifically includes:
- Step 31 Apply a photoresist layer on the upper portion of the polysilicon layer, and use a halftone mask to fully expose the photoresist layer corresponding to the region outside the island-shaped active layer, and correspondingly cover the The photoresist layer in the channel region region is subjected to half exposure, and the photoresist layer corresponding to the region covering the source/drain contact region is not exposed to form a photoresist layer pattern;
- Step 32 etching a polysilicon layer not covered by the photoresist layer pattern to form an island-shaped active layer
- Step 33 first removing the half-exposed portion of the photoresist layer pattern, and etching away the upper portion of the exposed polysilicon layer to form a channel region;
- Step 34 removing the unexposed portion of the photoresist layer pattern, leaving the upper portion of the polysilicon layer covered by the unexposed portion of the photoresist layer pattern to form a source/drain contact region.
- the buffer layer, the gate insulating layer, and the material of the interlayer insulating layer are silicon nitride, silicon oxide, or a combination of both.
- the gate, the source/drain material is a combination of one or more of molybdenum, titanium, aluminum, copper.
- the present invention also provides a method for fabricating a TFT backplane. After implanting an induced silicon solid layer into a polysilicon layer by implanting an amorphous silicon layer, the polysilicon layer is patterned by a halftone mask to form an island active. Simultaneously, the upper portion of the island-shaped active layer with more implanted induced ions is etched away to form a channel region, and more implanted ions are implanted on both sides of the island-shaped active layer. The upper portion remains as a source/drain contact region;
- Step 1 providing a substrate, sequentially depositing a buffer layer and an amorphous silicon layer on the substrate;
- Step 2 implanting an induced ion into the amorphous silicon layer, and then baking at a high temperature to rapidly solidify the amorphous silicon to form a polysilicon layer, wherein the upper portion of the polysilicon layer has more implanted induced ions, and the lower portion is a semiconductor layer having relatively pure polysilicon;
- Step 3 using a halftone mask to pattern the polysilicon layer to form an island-shaped active layer, while etching the upper portion of the central portion of the island-shaped active layer to form a channel region, which will be located in an island-like active region.
- the upper portion of the layer remains as a source/drain contact region;
- Step 4 sequentially forming a gate insulating layer, a gate, and an interlayer on the island-shaped active layer and the buffer layer a source layer and a source/drain, the source/drain being in contact with the source/drain contact regions;
- the substrate is a glass substrate
- the induced ions implanted in the amorphous silicon layer in the step 2 are boron ions or nickel ions.
- the invention also provides a TFT backplane structure, comprising:
- a buffer layer disposed on the substrate
- a gate insulating layer a gate electrode, an interlayer insulating layer, and a source/drain provided on the island-shaped active layer and the buffer layer;
- the source/drain are in contact with the source/drain contact regions.
- the substrate is a glass substrate; the buffer layer, the gate insulating layer, and the material of the interlayer insulating layer are silicon nitride, silicon oxide, or a combination of the two.
- the gate, the source/drain material is a combination of one or more of molybdenum, titanium, aluminum, copper.
- a method for fabricating a TFT backplane is characterized in that a polycrystalline silicon layer is patterned by using a halftone mask after implanting an amorphous silicon layer into an induced ion solid phase to form a polycrystalline silicon layer. While forming the island-shaped active layer, the upper portion of the island-shaped active layer having more implanted induced ions is etched away to form a channel region, which will be located on both sides of the island-shaped active layer.

Description
本发明涉及显示技术领域,尤其涉及一种TFT背板的制作方法及其结构。
在显示技术领域,液晶显示器(Liquid Crystal Display,LCD)与有机发光二极管显示器(Organic Light Emitting Diode,OLED)等平板显示技术已经逐步取代CRT显示器。其中,OLED具有自发光、驱动电压低、发光效率高、响应时间短、清晰度与对比度高、近180°视角、使用温度范围宽,可实现柔性显示与大面积全色显示等诸多优点,被业界公认为是最有发展潜力的显示装置。
OLED按照驱动类型可分为无源OLED(PMOLED)和有源OLED(AMOLED)。其中,AMOLED通常是由低温多晶硅(Low Temperature Poly-Silicon,LTPS)TFT背板和电激发光层组成自发光组件。低温多晶硅具有较高的电子迁移率,较强的驱动能力,对AMOLED而言,采用低温多晶硅材料具有高分辨率、反应速度快、高亮度、高开口率、低能耗等优点。
制作低温多晶硅的常用工艺主要有准分子激光退火晶化(Excimer Laser Annealing,ELA)、固相诱导晶化(Solid Phase Crystallization,SPC)、等,其中,SPC技术由于其大尺寸化容易且具有较高的成本优势,成为当前的研究热点。SPC技术又分为直接高温长时间加热烘烤方式和离子诱导方式。离子诱导方式通过植入特定的离子诱导非晶硅结晶。
传统的基于SPC技术的TFT背板的制作方法大体包括如下步骤:
步骤1、如图1所示,提供一基板100,在该基板100上依次沉积缓冲层200、与非晶硅(a-Si)层300;
步骤2、如图2所示,对非晶硅(a-Si)层300植入诱导离子,然后进行高温烘烤,使非晶硅快速结晶,形成多晶硅(poly-Si)层300’,该多晶硅层300’的上层部分310具有较多植入的诱导离子,下层部分为具有较纯净的多晶硅的半导体层320;
步骤3、如图3所示,将多晶硅层300’的上层部分310蚀刻掉,保留具有较纯净的多晶硅的半导体层320;
步骤4、如图4所示,利用一道光罩对半导体层320进行图案化处理,
形成岛状有源层400;
步骤5、如图5所示,先涂布光阻,通过一道光罩对光阻进行图案化处理,再以光阻图案500为遮蔽层,对岛状有源层400植入掺杂离子,使得岛状有源层400的两侧经植入掺杂离子成为源/漏极接触区401,而岛状有源层400的中部未植入掺杂离子成为沟道区402;
步骤6、如图6、图7所示,去除光阻图案500后,依次制作栅极绝缘层700、栅极800、层间绝缘层900、及源/漏极1000,源/漏极1000与源/漏极接触区401接触,完成低温多晶硅TFT背板的制作。
可见,上述传统的基于SPC技术的TFT背板的制作方法在植入诱导离子使非晶硅结晶形成多晶硅层300’后,需要将其具有较多植入的诱导离子的上层部分310蚀刻掉,以保留具有较纯净的多晶硅的半导体层320;然后利用一道光罩对半导体层320进行图案化处理,形成岛状有源层400;后续因为需要制作源/漏极接触区401,必需再使用一道光罩制作光阻图案500,以光阻图案500为遮蔽层对岛状有源层400的两侧植入掺杂离子形成源/漏极接触区401。该制程过程不仅需要的光罩数量较多,还需要两次离子植入,生产成本较高。
