PECVD Amorphous Silicon Nitride at 120°C for a-Si:H TFTs.
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 March 2011
Abstract
The effect of a-SiNx films stoichiometry and their physical properties on the electrical integrity and masking ability is studied. The films are deposited at 120° C by 13.56 MHz PECVD from SiH4+NH3 + N2 gas mixture. They have the N/Si ratio of 1.4 to 1.7 and hydrogen concentration of 25 to 40 at.%. The electrical characterization was carried out by I-V measurements. An electrical resistivity of ∼1016 Ohm-cm and breakdown voltage of 5.5 MV/cm have been achieved for our PECVD nitride films. The performance of a-Si:H TFTs with these silicon nitride as the gate dielectric and passivation layer has been also evaluated.
