In this paper, we investigated the SLS process to control grain boundary(GB) location in TFT channel region, and it has been found to be applicable for locating the GB at the same location in the channel region of each TFT. We fabricated TFT by applying a new alignment SLS process and compared the TFT characteristics with a normal SLS method and the grain boundary location controlled SLS method. Also, we have analysed degradation phenomena under hot carrier stress conditions for n-type LDD MOSFETs.

본 논문에서는 ELA poly-Si TFT보다 뛰어난 균일도를 갖고, a-Si:H TFT보다 전기적 안정도가 우수한 PMOS SPC-Si TFT의 특성을 연구하였다. SPC-Si의 계면 특성을 향상 시키기 위해 $SiO_2$ 게이트 절연막을 증착하기 전에 Solid Phase Crystalline 실리콘(SPC-Si) 채널 영역에 다양한 H2 플라즈마 처리를 해주었다. PECVD를 이용하여 100W에서 H2 플라즈마 처리를 5분 해주었을 때 SPC-Si TFT의 전기적 특성이 향상되는 것을 볼 수 있는데, $V_{TH}$가 약 -3.91V, field effect mobility가 $22.68cm^2$/Vs, 그리고 Subthreshold swing이 0.64 정도를 보였다. 또한 소자에 Hot carrier stress($V_{GS}$=14.91V, $V_{DS}$=-15V, for 2,000sec)를 주었을 때도 전기적 특성이 변하지 않았으며, 일정한 bias stress($V_{GS}$=-15V, $V_{DS}$=-10V, for 2,000sec)를 가하였을 때도 $V_{TH}$가 증가하지 않았다. 이러한 결과를 통해 SPC-Si가 poly-Si TFT보다 더욱 안정함을 알 수 있었다.

It is observed that the initial properties and degradation characteristics on plasma of n/p-MOSFET with polycide and poly-Si as different gate materials under F-N stress and hot electron stress are affected by metal AR(Antenna Ratio) during plasma process. Compared to that of MOS devices with poly-Si gate material, reliability properties on plasma of MOS devices with polycide gate material are improved. This can be explained by that fluorine of tungsten polycide process diffuses through poly-Si into gate oxide and results in additional oxide thickness. The fact that MOS devices with polycide gate material can reduce damages of plasma process shows possibility that polycide gate material can be used as gate material for next generation MOS devices.
