Thin film transistor, thin film transistor substrate and method of manufacturing thin film transistor substrate

摘要

A thin film transistor includes a gate electrode, a channel layer, a source electrode, and a drain electrode. The channel layer is made of an amorphous oxide semiconductor. The channel layer includes one high oxygen ion concentration region, or two high oxygen ion concentration regions one above the other. An oxygen ion density of each high oxygen ion concentration region is in a range of from about 1×1018 to about 1×1021 per cubic centimeter. A thin film transistor substrate and a method of manufacturing the thin film transistor substrate are also provided.

1. A method of manufacturing a thin film transistor substrate, the method comprising:
providing a substratum; forming a gate electrode on the substratum; forming a first insulating layer on the substratum, the first insulating layer covering the gate electrode; forming a channel layer on the first insulating layer corresponding to the gate electrode, the channel layer made of an amorphous oxide semiconductor; forming a metal layer on the first insulating layer, the metal layer covering the channel layer; forming a photoresist layer on the metal layer; forming a source electrode and a drain electrode by patterning the photoresist layer and etching the metal layer, the source electrode and the drain electrode formed at two opposite sides of the channel layer and symmetrical about the gate electrode and remaining photoresist layer covering the source electrode and the drain electrode; implanting oxygen ions into a portion of the channel layer not covered by the source electrode and the drain electrode, thereby forming at least one high oxygen ion concentration region in the channel layer, the at least one high oxygen ion concentration region having an oxygen ion density in a range of from about 1×1018 to about 1×1021 per cubic centimeter; removing the remaining photoresist layer after implanting oxygen ions into the channel layer; and forming a second insulating layer on the first insulating layer, the source electrode, the channel layer and the drain electrode.
