first embodiment

o Post-Deposition

[0074]1-A The method for manufacturing a field effect transistor according to the present embodiment is characterized by, subsequent to preparing a substrate yet prior to forming on the substrate an active layer comprising an amorphous oxide, carrying out any of the following steps:

[0075]irradiating ultraviolet rays onto the substrate surface in an ozone atmosphere; or

[0076]irradiating plasma onto the substrate surface; or

[0077]cleaning the substrate surface with a chemical solution containing hydrogen peroxide; or

[0078]coating with a film comprising silicon and oxygen.

[0079]As a result of the above surface treatment process of the substrate, contaminants adhered to the substrate surface are removed, whereby the substrate surface is cleaned.

[0080]As a result of the above process, performance deterioration due to contaminants diffusing into the film constituting a TFT (thin-film transistor), or other such field effect transistor, can be reduced.

[0081]Further, as a re...

example 1-1

[0341]First, a PET substrate is placed in the chamber of a UV / O3 surface treatment apparatus, and the substrate surface is irradiated with ultraviolet rays.

[0342]The chamber that this apparatus has conducts deposition in an oxygen-containing atmosphere under atmospheric pressure. Ozone forms in the chamber from the ultraviolet ray irradiation. Contaminants on the substrate surface are removed by the ozone and the ultraviolet rays, whereby a clean surface can be obtained.

[0343]On a substrate which had undergone surface treatment using this method, an In—Ga—Zn—O system amorphous oxide semiconductor thin-film is deposited by pulsed laser deposition employing a KrF excimer laser with a polycrystalline sintered body having an InGaO3(ZnO)4 composition serving as the target.

[0344]The deposition conditions are appropriately set within the above-mentioned range.

[0345]Next, the top-gate type MISFET device illustrated in FIG. 5 will be fabricated. Specifically, the device is fabricated in the ...

example 1-2

[0348]First, a glass substrate (1737, manufactured by Corning Incorporated) is placed in the chamber of a parallel-plate atmospheric-pressure plasma apparatus, and low-energy plasma is irradiated onto the substrate surface.

[0349]This apparatus removes contaminants on the substrate surface by irradiating low-energy plasma onto the substrate surface, whereby the state of the substrate top surface can be made to change.

[0350]On a substrate which had undergone surface treatment using this method, an In—Ga—Zn—O system amorphous oxide semiconductor thin-film is deposited by pulsed laser deposition employing a KrF excimer laser with a polycrystalline sintered body having an InGaO3(ZnO)4 composition serving as the target.

[0351]It can be confirmed from a peeling test carried out on the obtained amorphous oxide film that the adhesion between the substrate and the amorphous oxide film is extremely good.

[0352]An amorphous oxide obtained in this manner can be used to fabricate a transistor such ...

Abstract

Provided is a novel method for manufacturing a field effect transistor. Prior to forming an amorphous oxide layer on a substrate, ultraviolet rays are irradiated onto the substrate surface in an ozone atmosphere, plasma is irradiated onto the substrate surface, or the substrate surface is cleaned by a chemical solution containing hydrogen peroxide.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a field effect transistor.[0003]2. Related Background Art[0004]In recent years, flat image display devices (Flat Panel Display: FPD) have been developed for practical use as a result of the progress made in technologies such as liquid crystals and electroluminescence (EL). These FPDs are driven by the active matrix circuitry of field effect thin-film transistors (Thin Film Transistor: TFT) which use an amorphous silicon thin-film or a polycrystalline thin-film on a glass substrate in the active layer.[0005]Meanwhile, testing is being carried out into the use of resin substrates which are light-weight and flexible in place of a glass substrate in order to make such FPDs even thinner, lighter and have better their shatter resistance.[0006]However, the manufacture of such an above-described transistor which uses a silicon thin-film requires a relatively high tempe...
