Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in the process of applying the existing photolithography process, each time a film layer or circuit layer is produced, one exposure and one etching are required.
For today's semiconductor-related devices, because the structure of the device is relatively complex, including more film layers or circuit layer structures with patterns, it is necessary to perform multiple photolithography processes and undergo multiple exposure and etching processes. The production process is complicated

Abstract

The invention provides a thin film transistor and a manufacturing method and a photoetching process thereof. The photoetching process comprises the following steps: performing exposure by using a semi-gray-scale mask; and after exposure and development, removing a corresponding film layer A on the first region of the semi-gray-scale mask, a corresponding film layer B on the first region of the semi-gray-scale mask and a corresponding film layer A on the third region of the semi-gray-scale mask in sequence in order to finish etching. According to the photoetching process, the etching requirements of the film layers A and the film layer B can be met by performing one-time exposure on the semi-gray-scale mask, and the procedures of the photoetching process can be reduced, so that the aim of simplifying the photoetching process is fulfilled, and the manufacturing cost is reduced. When the thin film transistor is manufactured by applying the photoetching process, six times of photoetching in a manufacturing process of the thin film transistor can be simplified into four times of photoetching, so that the manufacturing method of the thin film transistor is simplified, and the manufacturing cost of the thin film transistor is reduced.

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of manufacturing semiconductor devices, and in particular relates to a thin film transistor, a manufacturing method thereof, and a photolithography process. Background technique [0002] In the process of manufacturing semiconductor devices, photolithography technology is generally involved. Photolithography technology is the basis for constructing a film layer or circuit layer with a preset pattern on a flat substrate. [0003] Photolithography technology includes many steps and processes in the actual production process: first, a complete film layer or circuit layer is formed on a flat substrate, and a photoresist layer is formed on the surface of the complete film layer or circuit layer; followed by exposure Operation, let the strong light shine on the substrate through a patterned hollow mask (MASK). If the photoresist layer is a positive photoresist layer, the part of the photoresist layer that is irradiated by t...
