摘要: 本篇論文中,我們對具有超薄非晶矽層之準分子雷射退火(excimer laser-annealed)低溫複晶矽薄膜電晶體之特性做了一系列的研究與比較,在不需要額外的光罩下,藉著覆蓋一層超薄非晶矽層,不僅降低了雷射退火通道之表面粗糙度也使開/關電流的比值改善了約一個數量級; 另外,也進一步的抑制了扭節現象的產生。我們發現到超薄非晶矽的最佳覆蓋厚度為5nm; 研究結果顯示,開/關電流之比值在汲極電壓為5V時可從4.15 x 104提升至3.45 x105,臨界電壓輕微的偏移到2.43V,通道表面粗糙度之方均根(RMS)可改善至8.52nm,除此之外,和傳統結構的薄膜電晶體(無超薄非晶矽層)相比,此新穎結構具有較佳的熱電子應力承受能力。
In this thesis, the characteristics of excimer laser annealed low temperature polycrystalline silicon TFT's with/without an ultra-thin a-Si layer have been investigated and compared. With capping an appropriate ultra-thin a-Si layer, the surface roughness of laser-annealed channel is not only decreased, but also the On/Off current ratio is improved about one order without extra mask step and kink effect is further suppressed. We also find that the optimum thickness of capping ultra-thin a-Si layer is about 5-nm. In our study, the On/Off ratio is rose from 4.15 x 104 to 3.45 x 105 for Vds = 5 V, Threshold voltage slightly shift to 2.43 V and RMS surface roughness of channel can be improved to 8.52-nm. And it has better hot-carrier stress endurance than conventional TFTs without an ultra-thin a-Si layer.
