背景技术Background technique
目前高分辨率显示产品成为市场主流趋势,实现液晶显示面板的高分辨率显示,对其像素开口率的要求越来越高,因此缩小薄膜晶体管(Thin Film Transistor,TFT)的尺寸变得尤为关键。现有技术中,存在一种垂直型TFT结构,可以大大减小TFT的尺寸,如图1所示,该垂直型TFT结构包括:玻璃基板1、缓冲层2、像素层3、源极金属层4、第一绝缘层5、漏极金属层6、氧化物(IGZO)层7、第二绝缘层8以及栅极金属层9,其中氧化物(IGZO)7属于有源层。虽然图1所示的垂直型TFT结构可以大大减小TFT的尺寸,但是该垂直型TFT结构目前仅适用于氧化物TFT,而非晶硅型TFT中非晶硅作为有源层,由于有源层与源极金属层及漏极金属层直接接触,因此非晶硅型TFT的欧姆接触较差,导致非晶硅型TFT的稳定性较差。At present, high-resolution display products have become the mainstream trend in the market. To achieve high-resolution display of liquid crystal display panels, the requirements for pixel aperture ratio are getting higher and higher. Therefore, reducing the size of thin film transistors (Thin Film Transistor, TFT) has become particularly critical. . In the prior art, there is a vertical TFT structure that can greatly reduce the size of the TFT. As shown in Figure 1, the vertical TFT structure includes: a glass substrate 1, a buffer layer 2, a pixel layer 3, and a source metal layer 4. The first insulating layer 5, the drain metal layer 6, the oxide (IGZO) layer 7, the second insulating layer 8 and the gate metal layer 9, wherein the oxide (IGZO) 7 belongs to the active layer. Although the vertical TFT structure shown in Figure 1 can greatly reduce the size of the TFT, the vertical TFT structure is currently only applicable to oxide TFTs, and amorphous silicon is used as the active layer in amorphous silicon TFTs. layer is in direct contact with the source metal layer and the drain metal layer, so the ohmic contact of the amorphous silicon TFT is poor, resulting in poor stability of the amorphous silicon TFT.

Moreover, since the a-Si layer is etched after the n+a-Si layer and the drain metal layer are etched, the etching time and the etching rate of the a-Si layer can be controlled, and there will be no damage to the a-Si layer. The stability of the TFT caused by over-cutting of the Si layer deteriorates.
需要说明的是,本申请实施例提供的上述制备薄膜晶体管的两种方式,只是在制备薄膜晶体管过程中的对薄膜晶体管每层的刻蚀的顺序不同,但均可以形成如图4所示的薄膜晶体管,上述制备薄膜晶体管的两种不同方式,对薄膜晶体管的性能并无影响。此外,与方式一相比,方式二提供的薄膜晶体管制备方法,由于采用半透掩模工艺对漏极金属层和n+a-Si层进行刻蚀,从而可以减少一张光罩(mask),不仅降低了生产成本,同时减少了一步曝光过程,从而减少了工艺时长,可以增加产能。It should be noted that the above two methods of preparing thin film transistors provided in the embodiments of the present application are only different in the order of etching each layer of the thin film transistor in the process of preparing the thin film transistor, but both can form the thin film transistor as shown in Figure 4. For thin film transistors, the above two different ways of preparing thin film transistors have no effect on the performance of thin film transistors. In addition, compared with method 1, the thin film transistor manufacturing method provided by method 2 can reduce a mask (mask) due to the use of a semi-transparent mask process to etch the drain metal layer and the n+a-Si layer. , not only reduces the production cost, but also reduces the one-step exposure process, thereby reducing the process time and increasing production capacity.
综上所述,本申请实施例提供的薄膜晶体管、阵列基板、显示面板、显示装置及薄膜晶体管的制备方法,通过设置欧姆接触层,使得源极层通过欧姆接触层与所述源极金属层和所述漏极金属层连接,即所述有源层不与所述源极金属层和所述漏极金属层完全直接接触,从而降低有源层与源极金属层和漏极金属层之间的欧姆接触电阻,提高有源层与所述源极金属层和所述漏极金属层之间的欧姆接触效果,进而可以提高薄膜晶体管的工作稳定性。此外,本申请实施例提供的薄膜晶体管制备方法,第一欧姆接触层和第二欧姆接触层是在同一工艺流程中形成的,简化了薄膜晶体管制备的步骤。并且,由于有源层在欧姆接触层和漏极金属层之后进行刻蚀,可以控制对有源层的刻蚀时间和刻蚀速率,从而不会产生因对有源层过刻引起的薄膜晶体管稳定性变差。To sum up, in the thin film transistor, array substrate, display panel, display device, and thin film transistor manufacturing method provided in the embodiments of the present application, an ohmic contact layer is provided so that the source layer is connected to the source metal layer through the ohmic contact layer. connected to the drain metal layer, that is, the active layer is not completely in direct contact with the source metal layer and the drain metal layer, thereby reducing the distance between the active layer and the source metal layer and the drain metal layer The ohmic contact resistance between them improves the ohmic contact effect between the active layer and the source metal layer and the drain metal layer, thereby improving the working stability of the thin film transistor. In addition, in the thin film transistor manufacturing method provided in the embodiment of the present application, the first ohmic contact layer and the second ohmic contact layer are formed in the same process flow, which simplifies the manufacturing steps of the thin film transistor. Moreover, since the active layer is etched after the ohmic contact layer and the drain metal layer, the etching time and etching rate of the active layer can be controlled, so that the thin film transistor caused by over-etching the active layer will not be produced. Stability deteriorates.
显然,本领域的技术人员可以对本申请进行各种改动和变型而不脱离本申请的精神和范围。这样,倘若本申请的这些修改和变型属于本申请权利要求及其等同技术的范围之内,则本申请也意图包含这些改动和变型在内。Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the application without departing from the spirit and scope of the application. In this way, if these modifications and variations of the present application fall within the scope of the claims of the present application and their equivalent technologies, the present application is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
