Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention belongs to the field of semiconductor devices, and in particular relates to a powder target, a preparation method thereof, and a preparation method of an active layer of a ZnO-based thin film transistor. Background technique: [0002] ZnO-based TFT is considered to be the next-generation MOSFET that is most likely to replace the current large-scale industrialized a-Si:H TFT, and has attracted widespread attention in recent years. The mature a-Si:H TFT has gradually revealed its limitations, mainly low mobility and opacity, so the response speed and aperture ratio of the device are limited. The second outstanding problem of a-Si:H TFT is the small band gap (1.7eV), which requires a black matrix to block visible light irradiation, so as not to generate additional photogenerated carriers, which increases the complexity and cost of the process. If the black matrix is ​​not used, only the structure of the bottom gate can be used. The third ...
