The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a thin film transistor (TFT). [Prior art] TFTs using polycrystalline silicon (Poly-Si) as an element material
Compared to TFTs using amorphous silicon (α-Si) as the element material, the mobility is about one to two digits higher and the ON current can be increased, so that scanning circuits (shifts) for liquid crystal display devices, solid-state imaging devices, etc. The application as a register is progressing. (IEEE Trans
Electron Devices, ED-32, No.8, P.1546 (1985)) In recent years, both liquid crystal display devices and solid-state imaging devices (for example, one-dimensional contact type image sensors) have been requested to be larger and have higher resolution. As a result, it is necessary to increase the speed of the scanning circuit. Therefore, attempts have been made to improve the mobility by hydrogenating defects existing in the grain boundaries (crystal grain boundaries) of the Poly-Si film by a method such as hydrogen plasma treatment or hydrogen ion implantation. . [Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, when the Poly-Si TFT is hydrogenated by hydrogen plasma, hydrogen ion implantation or the like, the Pol near the woofer end and the pattern of the Poly-Si layer 102 are continuously connected.
The phenomenon that the characteristics of the y-Si TFT became abnormal became clear. [Means for Solving the Problems] According to the present invention, a plurality of the same conductivity type peritoneal transistors are formed on a substrate, and one of the source or drain regions of the same conductivity type thin film transistor is connected to a power supply line. In the thin film transistor device, the plurality of thin film transistors of the same conductivity type are made of a hydrogenated polycrystalline silicon layer, and each of the thin film transistors arranged around the substrate is formed separately in an island shape. A connection wiring for connecting one or the other of the source and drain regions of the thin film transistor is formed of a member different from the polycrystalline silicon layer. Embodiment FIG. 1 shows an example of a manufacturing process of a thin film transistor according to an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, (a) shows Poly-Si on an insulating substrate 101.
A step of forming a layer 102 and patterning each TFT so as to separate the TFT into islands, and (b) shows a step of forming a gate insulating film 103, a gate electrode 104,
A step of forming a source / drain region 105 and an interlayer insulating film 106, (c) a step of hydrogenating the Poly-Si layer 102 'by a method such as hydrogen plasma treatment or hydrogen ion implantation, and (d) a step of hydrogenating the poly-Si layer 102'. In this step, a contact hole 107 is opened in 106, and a wiring pattern 108 is formed. FIG. 2 shows a part of a plan view of the thin film transistor scanning circuit of the present invention. The scanning circuit is a shift register having a CMOS structure and includes an inverter, a clocked inverter, and the like. FIG. 2 shows an example of a plan view of a part of the clocked inverter unit. In FIG. 2, 201 is a VDD line, 202 is a VSS line,
203 is a P-channel TFT, 204 is an N-channel TFT, 205 is a gate electrode, 206 is a contact hole, 207 (hatched portion in the figure)
Indicates the pattern of the Poly-Si layer separated for each TFT by 2
08 indicates a wiring pattern (the same material as V DD and V SS ). FIG. 3 shows a characteristic diagram of the TFT constituting the thin film transistor circuit. In FIG. 3, reference numeral 301 denotes a Poly-Si based on the present invention.
T inside shift register consisting of TFTs with layers separated into islands
This shows the characteristics of FT. Further, 302 is a Poly-S as shown in FIG.
13 shows TFT characteristics inside a shift register when the i-layers are connected in a strip shape. FIG. 3 shows the characteristics of the N-channel TFT. The vertical axis represents the current I DS between the source (S) and the drain (D), and the horizontal axis represents the source (S) -gate (G). Indicates the voltage V GS applied between them. The measurement was performed at a voltage V DS = 5 V between the source (S) and the drain. The measured TFTs were measured at a location (the extreme end) where the distance from the edge of the substrate (wafer) was 9 mm for both 301 and 302. FIG. 4 shows a part of a plan view of a conventional thin film transistor scanning circuit whose characteristics are shown in FIG. 401 is V
DD line, 402 is VSS line, 403 is P channel TFT, 40
4 is an N-channel TFT, 405 is a gate electrode, 406 is a contact hole, and 407 (shaded area in the figure) is a poly-Si connected in a belt shape.
Layer, 408 is the wiring pattern (the same material as the V DD and V SS lines)
Is shown. From FIG. 3, by separating the silicon layer for each TFT, damage (such as a shift in Vth (threshold voltage) of the TFT) in the steps of hydrogen plasma treatment and hydrogenation such as hydrogen ion implantation is eliminated. High-performance TFT scanning circuits can be manufactured with good reproducibility. FIG. 5 is a characteristic diagram of a TFT constituting a thin film transistor scanning circuit in which the Poly-Si layers shown in FIG. 4 are connected in a strip shape, and the TFTs having different distances from the base (wafer) end are examined. . In FIG. 5, reference numeral 501 denotes a TFT characteristic at a position 9 mm from the edge of the substrate, and 502 denotes a characteristic of 14 m from the edge of the substrate.
The characteristic of a TFT of m is 503, and a TFT of 503 is 20 mm from the edge of the substrate. From FIG. 5, it can be seen that in the TFT in which the Poly-Si is connected in a strip shape, the damage tends to increase as the distance from the substrate edge increases, and that the TFT is hardly damaged when the TFT is separated from the substrate edge to some extent. On the other hand, as shown in FIG.
When the ly-Si layer is separated, it is particularly effective to separate the TFT near the wafer edge, that is, at the peripheral portion of the substrate as shown in FIG. You can see that there is. In the above-described embodiment, an example is shown in which each TFT is separated, but in addition to this, several TFTs are formed on one Poly-Si island, and a TFT group is formed by separating every several TFTs. This method is also effective in reducing the damage to the TFT, and has an advantage that the pattern size of the TFT can be reduced as compared with the case where each TFT is separated. Further, the method of forming the TFT by separating it is effective for reducing damages such as dry etching in addition to damages such as hydrogen plasma and hydrogen ion implantation. [Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to greatly reduce the damage to the TFT in the hydrogenation step, and to manufacture a high-performance scanning circuit with good reproducibility. this is,
This is an extremely effective means for realizing a large-sized, high-resolution solid-state imaging device, liquid crystal display device, or the like. The present invention is not limited to a scanning circuit but can be widely applied to a circuit constituted by a poly-Si TFT, for example, a logic circuit, an amplification circuit, a memory circuit, and the like.
