TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the field of semiconductor display devices and microelectronics technology, and particularly relates to a low-on-state current and high-mobility indium-gallium-zinc-terbium oxide-based composite thin film transistor and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] China's new display functional device industry scale is the largest in the world, with an annual growth of more than 20%. In 2021, the display industry output value in China reached about 586.8 billion yuan, providing continuous momentum for the global industry chain. However, the flat panel display industry in Japan and South Korea is already mature, and famous flat panel display companies such as Sony, Sharp, Samsung, LG, AUO, and CMO are leading the global flat panel display market. At the 2020 World Display Industry Conference, industry associations from China, Japan, and South Korea launched the "New Display Industry Global Cooperation Initiative", calling for global cooperation in new display technology and promoting high-quality development of the industry.
[0003] The application range of metal oxide thin film transistors has been extended from the original display panel industry to system-on-panel design. Thin film transistors (TFTs) as switching elements in active array driving display devices have become the best in many flat panel display technologies. TFT is a kind of field effect semiconductor device, which includes substrate, semiconductor channel layer, insulating layer, gate and source-drain electrode, etc., and the semiconductor channel layer is crucial to the performance of the device. In addition, the dynamic response characteristics of the device in integrated circuits are also very important, especially for current displays that are developing towards high resolution and high frame rate, which requires higher working speed of the device. Therefore, TFTs in the circuit need to have higher carrier mobility, which is one of the biggest bottlenecks restricting the development of oxides. While traditional oxide semiconductor thin films face the bottleneck of mobility (20 cm 2 / V·s), there are also problems such as negative bias temperature illumination stress (NBTIS) instability, which limit the driving of high-definition display devices and the stability of the device.
[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to solve the trade-off between the mobility and stability of thin film transistors (TFTs) and the compatibility of the preparation process, in order to meet the needs of future low-power circuit development. SUMMARY

[0036] It should be noted that the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0037] The present application will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments, but is not limited to the embodiments.
[0038] Example 1
[0039] The embodiment of the present application provides a preparation method of an indium gallium zinc terbium oxide thin film transistor with different gallium (Ga) contents, and specifically comprises the following steps.
[0040] In step one, a stabilizer ethanolamine is added into ethylene glycol methyl ether, and the solution is recorded as A0.
[0041] Preferably, the stabilizer ethanolamine is added into the ethylene glycol methyl ether at a volume ratio of 0.92%.
[0042] In step two, indium nitrate, gallium nitrate, zinc acetate and terbium acetate are added into the solution A0 as precursors in different molar ratios of In:Ga:Zn:Tb, and after stirring for a certain time, a mixed solution is formed.
[0043] Preferably, the total molar concentration of all metal cations in the final composite solution is controlled to be 0.03 mol / L.
[0044] Preferably, the indium nitrate, gallium nitrate, zinc acetate and terbium acetate with the molar ratio of In:Ga:Zn:Tb=3:x:3:1 (x=0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6) are added into 100 ml of the solution A0 as precursors. The stirring time is 2 hours, and a uniform mixed solution is formed.
[0045] In step three, the mixed solution obtained in step two is spin-coated on a substrate pre-grown with a SiO2 insulating layer, and after drying, spin-coating is continuously performed, and the operation is repeated until the required thickness is reached.
[0046] Preferably, the thickness of the SiO2 insulating layer is 100 nm.
[0047] In step four, thermal annealing is performed in the atmosphere, and an indium gallium zinc terbium oxide composite thin film material is obtained.
[0048] In step five, the indium gallium zinc terbium oxide composite thin film material is processed, and an indium gallium zinc oxide composite thin film transistor with different gallium (Ga) contents is obtained.
[0049] Specifically, by using the ultraviolet lithography technology, the composite thin film is etched into independent small blocks by using the first mask and wet etching, so that the leakage current is reduced; then, the channel length / width is 15 μm / 75 μm by using the second mask, and the contact electrode is evaporated and peeled off, so that the indium gallium zinc terbium oxide thin film transistor with different gallium (Ga) contents is obtained, as shown in Figure 1 .
[0050] The embodiment one of the present application provides a preparation method of an indium gallium zinc terbium oxide thin film transistor, Figures 2-3 The test results of the indium gallium zinc terbium oxide thin film transistor obtained according to the preparation method are shown.
[0051] The indium gallium zinc terbium oxide thin film transistor obtained according to the preparation method has the following advantages: Figure 2The electrical transfer curve test results of the indium gallium zinc terbium oxide thin film transistors with different gallium contents (In: Ga: Zn: Tb = 3: x: 3: 1 (x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6)) obtained according to the preparation method are shown, the abscissa is the back gate voltage, and the ordinate is the channel current, and the device shows typical n-type transmission characteristics, and the on-off ratio is about 10 6 ; meanwhile, the gallium content significantly affects the transfer characteristic curve of the device.
[0052] Figure 3 is the transfer characteristic curve of 50 devices obtained according to the preparation method, the abscissa is the gallium content of the indium gallium zinc terbium oxide thin film transistor, the ordinate is the threshold voltage (V TH ) and the maximum on-state current (I ON ) obtained, and the error value is the standard deviation. Figure 3 It can be seen that the threshold voltage (V TH ) and the maximum on-state current (I ON ) of the indium gallium zinc terbium oxide thin film transistor with different gallium contents (In: Ga: Zn: Tb = 3: x: 3: 1 (x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6)) change with the gallium concentration. It can be seen that as the gallium concentration increases, the threshold voltage of the device continuously drifts to the positive direction, and the maximum on-state current continuously decreases, which is mainly due to the fact that gallium has a higher oxygen binding energy, which reduces the concentration of oxygen vacancies, thereby reducing the concentration of carriers in the oxide. Meanwhile, the mobility in the oxide is proportional to the carrier concentration, and the decrease of the final mobility results in a lower on-state current. This embodiment shows that the combination of gallium elements and indium zinc terbium elements can effectively regulate the threshold voltage of the indium gallium zinc terbium oxide thin film transistor.
