Abstract

A method for fabricating a bottom-gate top-contact metal oxide semiconductor thin film transistor, the method comprising: - forming a gate electrode on a substrate; - providing a gate dielectric layer covering the gate electrode; - depositing a metal oxide semiconductor layer on the gate dielectric layer; - depositing a metal layer on top of the metal oxide semiconductor layer; - patterning said metal layer to form source and drain contacts, wherein patterning the metal layer comprises dry etching of the metal layer; and thereafter patterning the metal oxide semiconductor layer.

Description

field of invention [0001] The technology of the present invention relates to a method for fabricating a metal oxide semiconductor thin film transistor, more specifically to a method for fabricating a metal oxide semiconductor bottom-gate top-contact thin film transistor, and also relates to the thin film transistor obtained therefrom. technical background [0002] Metal oxide semiconductors have found application in thin film electronics such as large area displays and circuits because of their ability to achieve excellent electrical properties at low processing temperatures. For example, a thin film transistor (TFT) using amorphous gallium-indium-zinc-oxide (a-GIZO) as an active layer has been demonstrated. Achieving excellent mobility (μ) and excellent threshold voltage (V TH ) control is an important parameter. [0003] In processes for fabricating bottom gate top contact (BGTC) metal oxide semiconductor thin film transistors, an etch stop layer is often used to protect...
