Description

The manufacture method of polysilicon membrane
Technical field
The invention relates to the manufacture method of a kind of Thin Film Transistor-LCD (TFT-LCD), and particularly relevant for the manufacture method of the polysilicon membrane of thin film transistor (TFT) array in a kind of Thin Film Transistor-LCD.
Background technology
General active matrix LCD can be divided into two kinds of polycrystalline SiTFT and amorphous silicon film transistors because of material, wherein polycrystalline SiTFT is owing to can integrate drive circuit, so can provide than amorphous silicon film transistor and be high aperture opening ratio and reduce cost, yet the Another reason that the polycrystalline SiTFT technology is praised highly energetically is a polycrystalline SiTFT can significantly dwindle component size, to reach high-resolution, generally want volume production polycrystalline SiTFT LCD, must have low temperature manufacturing technology (450 to 550 degree Celsius approximately), the film formation at low temp technology of high-quality gate insulating film and three important documents of large-area implanting ions technology.
Price based on glass substrate is considered, and carry out the growth of film under the employing low-temperature condition, so solid-phase crystallization method (Solid Phase Crystallization was arranged before this, SPC) introduction, but the temperature of its reaction is still higher, reaction temperature be about 600 the degree and crystallinity poor, afterwards, then develop and excimer laser crystallizationization (the Excimer Laser Crystallization that excimer laser (Excimer Laser) is applied to above-mentioned low temperature thin film crystallization, ELC) or quasi-molecule laser annealing (Excimer Laser Annealing, ELA) technology makes its fusion by using laser that amorphous silicon membrane is scanned, and is recrystallized into to be polysilicon membrane again.
Because excimer laser crystallization technology has the ability that technological temperature is brought down below 450 degree Celsius, and have electron mobility and the lower leakage current high than the solid-phase crystallization method by the formed polysilicon membrane of laser crystallization method, thereby can adopt the more glass substrate of low price, further reduce the cost of technology, and obtain preferable thin-film transistor element characteristic.
Figure 1A to Figure 1B is depicted as the manufacturing flow chart of known polysilicon membrane.
At first, please refer to Figure 1A, a substrate 100 is provided, have insulating barrier 102 in this substrate 100, then on insulating barrier 102, form the smooth amorphous silicon layer 104 of layer of surface again.After amorphous silicon layer 104 depositions, utilize the excimer laser 106 of enough energy, make amorphous silicon layer 104 be close to complete fusion.So-called almost completely fusion refer on the surface of insulating barrier can more remaining not fusion amorphous silicon particle (not icon) with as crystal seed.
Then please refer to Figure 1B, the amorphous silicon layer 104 of fusion is crystal seed (Discrete Seeds) with the amorphous silicon particle of not fusion, becomes polysilicon layer 108 behind the crystallization, and this polysilicon layer 108 is regions and source and the passage area that are used for thin-film transistor.
General in the crystallization process of known polysilicon membrane, necessarily need energy density with excimer laser be controlled at just can to allow almost completely fusion of amorphous silicon layer, simultaneously amorphous silicon particle that again can more residual not fusion is with the crystal seed as crystallization, so just have preferable crystallization effect, but excimer laser belongs to pulse type laser, the energy density of each pulse is difference all to some extent, so the control of excimer laser on energy density is difficult for, make that the size dimension of last crystal grain is inconsistent, and form many projections (Protrusion) in the grain boundary, and then cause the uniformity of polysilicon membrane not good, and influence the transistorized element characteristic of subsequent thin film.
Summary of the invention
Therefore, purpose of the present invention is in the manufacture method that proposes a kind of polysilicon membrane, can form crystal grain with large-size, and can reduce the quantity and the density of the projection that is formed at the grain boundary, obtaining having the polysilicon membrane of preferable surface flatness, and this polysilicon membrane has preferable element characteristic when being applied to thin-film transistor and/or other electron component.
The present invention proposes a kind of manufacture method of polysilicon membrane, and the method is for providing a substrate, and forms first polysilicon layer in substrate, wherein has a plurality of first projections of differing heights on first polysilicon layer.Then, form first amorphous silicon layer on first polysilicon layer, have second projection of differing heights on this first amorphous silicon layer, the top of these a little second projections and the ultimate range of substrate surface are X 1, with the minimum range of substrate surface be Y 1Next carry out laser annealing technique, gross thickness is lower than Z 1First amorphous silicon layer and the partial melting of first polysilicon layer (Y wherein 1<Z 1<X 1).At this moment, the distance of top and substrate surface is greater than Z 1The fully fusion of a part second projection, keep solid-stately, and become a plurality of silicon particles, the number of these silicon particles can be less than the number of first projection.Next carry out crystallization step, this moment, the silicon atom of molten state can be a crystal seed with these silicon particles, and the crystallization post crystallization is grown into second polysilicon layer.
The present invention proposes the manufacture method of another kind of polysilicon membrane, the method is for providing a substrate, then in substrate, form first polysilicon layer, wherein have a plurality of first projections on first polysilicon layer, and these a little first projections have differing heights, and the ultimate range of the top of first projection and substrate surface is X 2, with the minimum range of substrate surface be Y 2Then, first polysilicon layer is carried out etch process, thickness is lower than Z 2First polysilicon layer partly remove (Y wherein 2<Z 2<X 2).At this moment, the distance of top and substrate surface is greater than Z 2First polysilicon layer part not by complete etching, thereby on substrate surface, form a plurality of silicon particles, the number of these silicon particles can be less than the number of first projection.Then, on substrate and silicon particle, form first amorphous silicon layer, carry out laser annealing technique again.By suitable laser energy is provided, it is solid-state making the complete fusion of first amorphous silicon layer and keeping silicon particle.Next carry out crystallization step, this moment, the silicon atom of molten state can be a crystal seed with these silicon particles, and the crystallization post crystallization is grown into second polysilicon layer.
