Embodiment

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, form the film that one deck can be captured positive charge on high resistance area, silicon nitride film for example directly contacts with high resistance area or with therebetween gate insulation silicon oxide film.The thickness of positive charge capture layer for example is 200～

The positive charge that tunicle is captured makes the conduction type of the high resistance area of contiguous capture layer become lightly doped N type, or neutralization is injected into negative electrical charge in the gate insulating film, thereby advances to have exempted from by the caused decreased performance of hot current-carrying.For example, on high resistance area,, for applying to the drain region+15V, apply-during 20V voltage, can not be captured by oxidized silicon fiml by the caused negative electrical charge of collision ionization to grid if silicon oxide film is not set.When being provided with silicon oxide film on high resistance area, negative electrical charge is that oxidized silicon fiml is captured, and this electric charge will be neutralized by positive charge.Thereby can prevent that high resistance area from becoming the P type.

Fig. 2 A～2D represents the local relation figure between each embodiment positive charge capture layer and the gate insulating film.In Fig. 2 A, TFT has achannel region 3, source region and

drain region

1 and 5, and theanode oxide film 12 that 6, one gate electrodes of one deckgate insulating film 7 reach around gate electrode also has a pair ofhigh resistance area 2 and 4.In addition, on the TFT upper surface, form aninterlayer insulator 8, and source,

drain electrode

9 and 10 are set by this insulator.Have again and be provided with electriccharge capture film 11 as shown in the figure.

In Fig. 2 A, thisgate insulating film 6 has covered the whole active layer that comprises source region and

drain region

1 and 5 especially.And electriccharge capture layer 11 is superimposed on this gate insulating film.

In Fig. 2 B, thisgate insulating film 6 extends to outside the edge ofchannel region 3, has covered

high resistance area

2 and 4, but does not cover source region and drain region.Thereby electriccharge capture layer 11, but is directly contacted with 5 with source region anddrain region 1 withhigh resistance area 2 with opened in 4 minutes bygate insulating film 6.

In Fig. 2 C, this gate insulating film has only covered channel region, thereby electriccharge capture layer 11 directly contacts with source, drain region and high resistance area.Have, the structure shown in Fig. 2 D is the remodeling to structure shown in Fig. 2 B (or Fig. 2 A) again, extends to wherein that part of gate insulation layer has been thinned outside the gate electrode.

With regard to the structure shown in Fig. 2 A or the 2B, when because hot carrier is injected near the part gate insulating film of the high resistance area 4 (indicating " a " among the figure) indrain region 5 during trap either negative, the positive charge neutralization that this negative electrical charge is just captured in the electric charge capture layer 11.For the effect with the positive charge in thecapture layer 11 extends to resistive formation, this gate insulating film should be so not thick.For example, the thickness of this gate insulating film is existedOr below.

With regard to Fig. 2 C,

resistive formation

2 and 4 is not provided with gate insulating film.Thereby, the always weak N type of the conduction type of thisresistive formation 2, this is because the existence of captive positive charge is arranged at electric charge capture layer.Hope is without plasma CVD, and forms silicon nitride film with optical cvd or hot CVD, in order to avoid active layer is by plasma damage.

With regard to Fig. 2 D, that partgate insulating film 6 that is positioned on the resistive formation is corroded, becomes thinner than that minute gate insulating film that is positioned on the channel region, so that strengthen the effect of the positive charge of being captured by electric charge capture layer again.This structure is favourable, because can make the thickness of the gate insulating film on the raceway groove thicker, thereby needn't worry that the reliability of gate insulating film is affected.Perhaps, make dielectric film can cover the whole surface in source, drain region.

High resistance area among the present invention is to utilize gate electrode and by the formed anode oxide film of electrode anode oxidation gate electrode, form with self-aligned manner.The thickness of anode oxide film can accurately and very equably be controlled.For example, can film be thinner than

Or be thicker than

(for example 1 μ m).So the thickness of high resistance area (width) can freely accurately utilize anode oxide film to control.

In addition, used anodic oxide coating divides two kinds among the present invention.A kind of is barrier type anodic oxide coating and another kind is the porous anode layer.When corrosion barrier type anodic oxide coating, must use the corrosive agent that comprises hydrofluoric acid.Yet, the porous anode layer can be corroded with the corrosive agent of phosphoric acid.Thereby can only corrode the porous anode layer, and do not damage silicon or the silica that constitutes TFT.In addition, porous anode layer and barrier type anodic oxide coating all are difficult to use dry etching.Particularly porous anodic oxide is compared with silica, and its selection rate is high especially.So, can obtain the structure shown in Fig. 2 B as follows.

For example at first form the porous anode layer of 1 μ m at least at the side surface of gate electrode.Make mask with anodic oxide coating, remove that part of gate insulating film that extends to beyond the gate electrode, then remove the porous anode layer by corrosion.As a result, gate insulating film extends to and exceedsgate electrode side 1 μ m, shown in Fig. 2 B.In order to obtainhigh resistance area 2 and source,

drain region

1 and 5, introduce N type foreign ion from the top of gate electrode.To having the foreign ion of certain energy, as the phosphonium ion for 30KeV, the Impurity Distribution on depth direction is observed Gauss and is distributed, and Cmax is approximately apart from the surface

Deeply.So the impurity that part of active layer of gate insulation layer is not set up can be increased to quite high concentration, however the semiconductor regions below gate insulating film, because a large amount of impurity is stopped that by this dielectric film its impurity does not increase so many.

So, formed source region and

drain region

1 and 5 of mixing, and below the gate insulating film that extends with high concentration impurities, formed thehigh resistance area 2 that the low concentration impurity with low 1 or 2 figure places mixes simultaneously.When reducing the acceleration energy of foreign ion, the total impurities that is introduced in high resistance area by dielectric film becomes still less, and that its conduction type becomes is identical with channel region.

[embodiment 1]

With reference to Fig. 3 A～3H, explain manufacture craft process according to TFT of the present invention.

At first, give alkali-free glass substrate 101, for example Corning 7059 (300mm * 400mm or 100mm * 100mm) apply a bed thickness 1000～

Silicon oxide film 102.This silicon oxide film can form by sputter in the oxygen atmosphere.Yet, preferably utilize plasma CVD, make raw material with TEOS (tetraethoxysilane) gas, to improve production efficiency.Can use other material to replace silica, for example, individual layer aluminium nitride, double-deck silicon nitride and aluminium nitride.Aluminium nitride can form by reactive sputtering in blanket of nitrogen.

Then, onsilicon oxide film 102, formactive layer 103, for example a silicon metal." silicon metal " among the present invention can be any type of silicon that comprises crystal at least in part, for example, and monocrystalline, polycrystalline or half amorphous.In the present embodiment, form by plasma CVD or LPCVD thick 300～

Best 500～

Amorphous silicon film, then this film is put into 550～600 ℃ reducing atmosphere 24 hours, make its crystallization.This step can use laser annealing to finish.At last, the film of crystallization is carved into figure, obtainsactive layer 103.

Then, form thedielectric film 104 that for example forms and coveractive layer 103, form gate insulating film by silica.The thickness of dielectric film is 300～

For example

Or it is thinner.Available sputtering method forms this film.

Ondielectric film 104, formation can be used for forming gate electrode by anodised material.Can aluminium for example be arranged anodised material, tantalum, titanium and silicon.These materials can use with form of single sheet respectively.Perhaps, also can utilize two, three kind of material multilayer form, for example, the double-decker of forming by aluminium and stack titanium silicide thereon, or the double-decker of forming by titanium nitride and thereon the aluminium of superposeing.The thickness of each layer changes with desired device property.In the present embodiment, used aluminium film by the Sc of the Si of electron beam evaporation or the formed 1wt% of containing of sputter or 0.1～0.3wt%.

Have again, on the aluminium film, form one deck plays the mask effect in follow-up anodic oxidation step film.To be used as mask with the photoresist material (be OFPR 800/30cp, Tokyo Oka produces) that spin coating forms.For improving photoresist material and adhesiveness, be preferably in and form before the photoresist material, on the surface of aluminium film, form thick 100～

The barrier type anode oxide film.In addition, this barrier type anode oxide film prevents that porous anodic oxide is formed at the top at aluminium in one step of back.

Then, aluminium is carved intogate electrode 105 andmask 106 figures with photoresist film, as shown in Figure 3A.

With reference to Fig. 3 B, apply electric current in electrolyte, forgate electrode 105, only the side surface at gate electrode forms porous type anode oxide film 107.Use acidic electrolysis bath, for example the aqueous solution with citric acid, oxalic acid, phosphoric acid, chromic acid or the sulfuric acid of 3-20% can obtain the porous type anode oxide film.Added voltage is lower, and for example in the scope of 10-30V, this moment, holding current was constant.Adopt this low voltage, it is thick that porous anodic oxide can grow into 0.3～25 μ m, for example thick to 1.0 μ m.

In the present embodiment, the thickness ofanodic oxide 107 is preferably 0.3～2 μ m, for example 0.5 μ m.The temperature of oxalic acid remains on 30 ℃.Applied voltage is 10V.Anodic oxidation was carried out～40 minutes.Control the thickness of this film with the anodised time.

In addition, after forming porousanodic oxide 107, preferably carry out anodic oxidation in the following manner, on the side surface of gate electrode and upper surface, form barrier typeanodic oxide 108.

That is, remove after themask 106, in electrolyte, apply electric current to gate electrode.In this anodic oxidation, use the ethylene glycol solution contain 3～10% tartaric acid, boric acid or nitric acid.The temperature of solution preferably keeps below room temperature (20 ℃), for example, and about 10 ℃, to improve the quality of film.The increase that is directly proportional with the applied voltage amplitude of the thickness of anodic oxide 108.When applied voltage was 150V, thickness can reachThe thickness of this film should be determined according to skew or the desired size in overlay region.But, must apply the voltage that is higher than 250V, so that the thickness increase of film surpasses

So thickness is preferably not to be thicker than

To avoid using the high like this voltage (Fig. 3 C) harmful to the TFT characteristic.

Even it should be noted that after forming porous anodic oxide to form barrier typeanodic oxide 108 again, it also is formed in the inboard of porous anodic oxide 107.Use the phosphoric acid corrosion agent, the corrosion rate of the corrosion rate of porous anodic oxide being compared the barrier type anodic oxide is big 10 times.Therefore, the barrier type anodic oxide is corroded by the phosphoric acid corrosion agent hardly, so in the back during step corrosion porous typeanodic oxide 107, it can protect aluminum gate electrode.

After forming the porous type anodic oxide, make mask with porous anodic oxide, withdielectric film 104 be carved into gateinsulating film 104 shown in Fig. 3 D ' figure.Corrosion depth can arbitrarily be determined.That is, can remove the surface that dielectric film exposes active layer fully, as shown in drawings, also can only remove the top of dielectric film, active layer is exposed.But, wish to corrode fully dielectric film from productivity ratio, output, uniformity.That part ofdielectric film 104 that is positioned at grid electricity level and porous anodic oxide below identical thickness when having kept with original formation.

Adopt plasma dry etchingdielectric film 104, get final product isotropic etch, but also anisotropic etch (RIE).The selection that must make silicon and silica is than big fully, so that active layer is not corroded is so much.In the present embodiment, use CF₄Gas is made corrosive agent.

In addition, when gate electrode is mainly formed by aluminium, tantalum or titanium, anddielectric film 104 is suitable with fluorine-containing etchant gas when mainly being formed by silica, because silica easily is corroded, and minimum to the corrosion rate of aluminium, tantalum oxide and titanium oxide.In addition, also can use hydrofluoric acid containing, as contain the corrosive agent of 1/100 hydrofluoric acid, adopt wet etching.

Gate insulating film 104 ' afterwards, the corrosive agent of use phosphoric acid removes porousanodic oxide 107 forming.For example a kind of mixed acid that comprises phosphoric acid, acetate and phosphoric acid.Corrosion rate is approximately

/ minute.Following gate insulation layer 104 ' remain incorruptibly, shown in Fig. 3 E.

Formed like this gate insulation layer 104 ', its width has exceeded the outer rim one segment distance ' y ' of barrier typeanodic oxide 108, shown in Fig. 3 D.By explanation in front as can be known, this segment distance ' y ' is definite by the thickness (width) of the porous anodic oxide film in the self-registeredtechnology 107.

Then, with reference to Fig. 3 F, withgate electrode 105 and theanodic oxide 108 that forms thereon and gate insulation layer 104 ' the extension make mask, by ion doping, with N type foreign ion, for example phosphonium ion is introduced the active layer position.Dosage is 1 * 10⁴～5 * 10¹⁵At/cm², for example 2 * 10¹⁵At/cm²Acceleration energy is 10～60keV, for example 40keV.Impurity gas is hydrogen phosphide (PH₃).With this understanding, make

zone

110 and 113 impurity concentration be increased to enough height, for example 1 * 10²⁰～2 * 10²¹At/cm³, form source region and drain region, also increase for example 1 * 10 with the impurity concentration of

time domain

111 and 112¹⁷～2 * 10¹⁸At/cm³, because the existence of gate insulating film is arranged thereon.Impurity concentration is measured with secondary ion mass spectroscopy view (SIMS).In addition, these concentration are respectively with 5 * 10¹⁴～5 * 10¹⁵At/cm²And 2 * 10¹³～5 * 10¹⁴At/cm²Dosage is corresponding.In general, source,

drain region

110 and 113 impurity concentration should be than the impurity concentration of

high resistivity region

111 and 112 high 0.5～3 figure place.

Its result has formed the lower source of resistivity,

drain region

110 and 113 and

high resistivity region

111 and 112.

Subsequently, shown in Fig. 3 G, form on whole surface by plasma CVD thick 200～

Silicon nitride film 114.The ratio of component that uses silane and ammonium is that 1: 5 mixture underlayer temperature is 250～400 ℃, for example 350 ℃.The component that it increases silane just contains excessive silicon in the silicon nitride, cause forming the positive charge trapping centre of high concentration.If the component of silane increases too much, then be harmful to insulation characterisitic.

Perhaps,, or the nitrogen ion is injected in the silicon fiml, also can forms silicon nitride film by low pressure chemical vapor deposition.

After formingsilicon nitride film 114, with xeF excimer laser (wavelength is 355nm, and pulse duration is 40n sec) irradiation, so that the foreign ion that is injected into active layer is activated.Should select Wavelength of Laser, make laser transmissive silicon nitride film.

Replace excimer laser, use other laser also can.But pulse laser is more desirable than the sharp title of continuous wave (CW laser), because the exposure time of CW laser is long, the danger that makes by tapetum expanded by heating and peeling is arranged.

Cause example, iraser is arranged in pulse laser, as Nd:YAG laser (preferred Q-switched pulse vibration), the second harmonic of Nd:YAG (visible light), and ultraviolet laser device, as KrF, XeCl and ArF excimer laser.When illuminating laser beam above metal film, must select Wavelength of Laser, so that do not reflected by metal film.But when metal film is very thin, then be out of question.In addition, also can be from the side of substrate irradiating laser.In the case, must select the laser of transmissive silicon.

Can also adopt visible light or near-infrared light modulation to anneal to substitute laser annealing.In the case, for surface region being heated to 600～1000 ℃, for example implementing annealing several minutes, or anneal tens of seconds at 1000 ℃ at 600 ℃.Can not make glass lined be heated to so high temperature with near infrared ray (1.2 μ m) annealing, because this near infrared ray is selected to have absorbed by Si semiconductor.Have again, when shortening irradiation, can prevent that glass is heated.

After impurity activation, use ion doping, hydrogen ion is incorporated into active layer.Accelerating voltage is 10～50kV, for example 20kV.Dosage is with 1 * 10¹⁴～5 * 10¹⁵At/cm², for example 1 * 10¹⁵At/cm²Do like this is because silicon nitride film does not allow hydrogen to see through it during normal thermal annealing.Thereby hydrogen can be doped to the zone between channel region and source, the drain region automatically.In addition, after increasing the laser active of impurity, preferably implement hydrogen ion doped.

With reference to Fig. 3 H, form thick by plasma CVD silicon oxide deposition film

～1 μ m, for exampleInterlevel insulator 115.Subsequently, form contact hole, form the aluminium electrode or connect up 116 or 117 by contact hole by interlevel insulator.Then, in 200～400 ℃ blanket of nitrogen, total is annealed, so that the hydrogen atom that the preceding step introduces activates.Make TFT so finish.

[embodiment 2]

Present embodiment adopts withembodiment 1 described until the same process process that obtains structure shown in Fig. 3 F.Omit unnecessary explanation.But the thickness ofdielectric film 104 thick thanembodiment 1 in the present embodiment.For example, dielectric film be 1000～

For example

Thick, so that can make grid leakage current reduce to minimum, and in anode oxidation process, can bear high voltage.

With reference to Fig. 4 A, it is corresponding to Fig. 3 E, with gate electrode and dielectric film 104 ' make mask, with 1 * 10¹⁴～3 * 10¹⁶At/cm², for example 2 * 10¹⁵At/cm²Dosage, with 50～100kV, for example the accelerating voltage of 80kV carries out the ion doping of nitrogen ion.Make accelerating voltage to the nitrogen ion is almost completely passed do not exist above it dielectric film 104 'active layer zone 110 and 113.Thereby do not mixed effectively by nitrogen in thiszone 110 and 113.When measuring with SIMS, the concentration of nitrogen is lower than 1 * 10¹⁹At/cm³On the other hand, in the

zone

121 and 122 below gate insulating film 104 ' expandable part, nitrogen concentration has its maximum, and promptly 5 * 10¹⁹～2 * 10²¹At/cm³(according to the degree of depth).Like this, high resistance area will be played in

zone

121 and 122.

Then,, press self-aligned manner, with gate insulating film 104 ' further be carved intogate insulating film 104 according to barrier typeanodic oxide 108 with reference to Fig. 4 B " figure.Then, form in the mode identical by plasma CVD withembodiment 1 thick 200～For example thick

Silicon nitride film 114.With ion doping phosphonium ion is incorporated in the active layer again.Its dosage is 5 * 10¹⁴～5 * 10¹⁵At/cm²Accelerating voltage is 50～100kV, for example is 80kV.Make dopant gas with hydrogen phosphide.Its result makes zone 110,113 and 121,122 mix the phosphorus of same amount.When measuring with SIMS, the concentration that records phosphorus is 1 * 10²⁰～2 * 10²¹At/cm³, this is corresponding to 5 * 10¹⁴～5 * 10¹⁵At/cm²Dosage.But because of there being nitrogen to exist, the resistivity in

zone

121 and 122 is than

zone

110 and 113 height.In addition, when silicon nitride film mixes at phosphonium ion, prevented that the surface of active area is damaged.

Phosphonium ion and nitrogen ion are for example used excimer laser (wavelength 355nm, pulsewidth 40ns) to activate by subsequent annealing steps.Then, by the mode identical, introduce hydrogen ion by ion doping withembodiment 1.

At last, with reference to Fig. 4 C, form the thick of silicon oxide-containing by CVD

Interlevel insulator 115.Form the aluminium electrode or connect up 116 and 117 by the contact hole that is formed in the interlevel insulator.In 200～400 ℃ nitrogen, anneal again.So just finished the TFT ofembodiment 2.

With reference to Fig. 5 A, the monolithic integrated circuit embodiment that uses according to TFT of the present invention is described.Monolithic integrated circuit for example is used as the circuit substrate of active matrix liquid crystal device, and pixel TFT wherein and the peripheral circuit that is formed by TFT all are integrated on the same substrate.Show TFT1～TFT3 in the drawings.TFT1 and TFT2 are used as driving stage TFTS, and its barrier type anodic oxide is 200

For example

Thick.Because of the diffraction of the foreign ion in ion doping process, gate electrode and high resistance area have slightly overlapping each other.The drain electrode of N ditch type TFT1 interconnects through the drain electrode ofwiring 503 with P ditch type TFT2.In addition, the source ground of TFT1, and the source electrode of TFT2 is connected with power supply, to constitute a CMOS inverter.The cmos circuit that it should be noted that other type can be used as peripheral circuit.

On the other hand, TFT3 is used as the pixel TFT that drives pixel.The thickness of its anodic oxide is

TFT1 and TFT2 are as the same.Width ' the y ' of the high resistivity region of TFT1 and TFT2 (for example) is as thin as 0.2 μ m, and the width of the high resistivity region of TFT3 is made 0.4～2 μ m, and for example 0.5 μ m's is thick, so that reduce the parasitic capacitance between leakage current and grid leak.The width of high resistivity region for a change as mentioned above should be controlled the thickness of porous anodic oxide.Therefore, preferably the gate electrode with each TFT is separated from each other, so that carry out anode oxidation process independently at each TFT gate electrode.

In addition, though TFT1 and TFT3 are N ditch types, and TFT2 is a P ditch type.So the technical process ofembodiment 1 andembodiment 2 is not suitable for formation TFT2.Therefore, though with gate insulating film 104 ' " figure, this step should not implemented TFT2, so thatsilicon nitride film 114 does not directly contact with high resistivity region to be carved into thefilm 104 shown in Fig. 4 c.If silicon nitride film directly contacts with high resistivity region, the positive charge of being captured by silicon nitride film can change the conduction type of high resistivity region into the N type, causes obstruction source, leakage current.Therefore, P ditch TFT has structure as shown in the figure.

[embodiment 3]

With reference to Fig. 6 A, by the method identical withembodiment 1, on Corning 7059glass substrate 101, form silicon oxide-containingcounterdie 102, have certain degree of crystallinity

Thickisland silicon fiml 103, thickThethick gate electrode 105 of silicon oxide film 104,200nm～1 μ m made of aluminum and the porous anodic oxide film on the gate electrode side surface 107 (

～1 μ m, as

Thick).

Form by method again withembodiment 1 thick 1000～Barrier type anode oxide film 108 (Fig. 6 B).

Make mask with porousanodic oxide 107, withsilicon oxide film 104 corrode intogate insulating film 104 '.Make mask with barrier typeanodic oxide 108 then, erode porous anodic oxide 107.Subsequently, with gate electrode and the barrier type anodic oxide and the gate insulating film that form thereon make mask, introduce impurity by ion doping, form low-

resistance impurity range

110 and 113 and highresistant impurity range 111 and 112.Dosage is 1～5 * 10¹⁴At/cm²Accelerating voltage is 30～90kV.Impurity element is phosphorus (Fig. 6 c).

Form layer ofmetal film 123 with sputtering on the whole surface again, for example thick 50～
