摘要
Excellent n-channel poly-Si thin-film transistors (poly-Si TFTs) have been formed by using retrograde channel scheme with channel doping implantation and extra counter-doping implantation, As compared to the conventional sample with undoped channel layer, a much smaller leakage current can be achieved by boron-doping the poly-Si channel layer, due to a significantly reduced depletion region. However, the on-state characteristics are degraded. A retrograde channel scheme, implemented by further phosphorus counter-doping the surface of the boron-doped channel layer, is proposed for lowering the channel surface doping concentration without changing the bulk channel doping concentration. By using the retrograde channel scheme, an off-state leakage current as low as that for the normal channel-doping scheme may be achieved, while yielding excellent on-state I-V transfer characteristics.
