A semiconductor device having excellent electric characteristics and a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device are provided. A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes the steps of: forming a gate electrode; forming a gate insulating film to cover the gate electrode; forming an oxide semiconductor film over the gate insulating film; forming a hydrogen permeable film over the oxide semiconductor film; forming a hydrogen capture film over the hydrogen permeable film; performing heat treatment to release hydrogen from the oxide semiconductor film; forming a source electrode and a drain electrode to be in contact with a part of the oxide semiconductor film; and removing an exposed portion of the hydrogen capture film to form a channel protective film formed of the hydrogen permeable film. A semiconductor device manufactured by the above method is also provided.
摘要:
A highly reliable semiconductor device is manufactured by giving stable electric characteristics to a transistor in which an oxide semiconductor film is used. A p-type oxide semiconductor material is contained in an n-type oxide semiconductor film, whereby carriers which are generated in the oxide semiconductor film without intention can be reduced. This is because electrons generated in the n-type oxide semiconductor film without intention are recombined with holes generated in the p-type oxide semiconductor material to disappear. Accordingly, it is possible to reduce carriers which are generated in the oxide semiconductor film without intention.

A semiconductor device is manufactured using a transistor in which an oxide semiconductor is included in a channel region and variation in electric characteristics due to a short-channel effect is less likely to be caused. The semiconductor device includes an oxide semiconductor film having a pair of oxynitride semiconductor regions including nitrogen and an oxide semiconductor region sandwiched between the pair of oxynitride semiconductor regions, a gate insulating film, and a gate electrode provided over the oxide semiconductor region with the gate insulating film positioned therebetween. Here, the pair of oxynitride semiconductor regions serves as a source region and a drain region of the transistor, and the oxide semiconductor region serves as the channel region of the transistor.
摘要:
A transistor in which an electron state at an interface between an oxide semiconductor film and an underlayer film in contact with the oxide semiconductor film is favorable is provided. A value obtained by dividing a difference between nearest neighbor interatomic distance of the underlayer film within the interface and a lattice constant of the semiconductor film by the nearest neighbor interatomic distance of the underlayer film within the interface is less than or equal to 0.15. For example, an oxide semiconductor film is deposited over an underlayer film which contains stabilized zirconia which has a cubic crystal structure and has the (111) plane orientation, whereby the oxide semiconductor film including a crystal region having a high degree of crystallization can be provided directly on the underlayer film.
摘要:
An insulating layer which releases a large amount of oxygen is used as an insulating layer in contact with a channel region of an oxide semiconductor layer, and an insulating layer which releases a small amount of oxygen is used as an insulating layer in contact with a source region and a drain region of the oxide semiconductor layer. By releasing oxygen from the insulating layer which releases a large amount of oxygen, oxygen deficiency in the channel region and an interface state density between the insulating layer and the channel region can be reduced, so that a highly reliable semiconductor device having small variation in electrical characteristics can be manufactured. The source region and the drain region are provided in contact with the insulating layer which releases a small amount of oxygen, thereby suppressing the increase of the resistance of the source region and the drain region.

To manufacture a transistor whose threshold voltage is controlled without using a backgate electrode, a circuit for controlling the threshold voltage, and an impurity introduction method. To manufacture a semiconductor device having favorable electrical characteristics, high reliability, and low power consumption using the transistor. A gate electrode including a tungsten oxide film whose composition is controlled is used. The composition or the like is adjusted by a film formation method of the tungsten oxide film, whereby the work function can be controlled. By using the tungsten oxide film whose work function is controlled as part of the gate electrode, the threshold of the transistor can be controlled. Using the transistor whose threshold voltage is controlled, a semiconductor device having favorable electrical characteristics, high reliability, and low power consumption can be manufactured.
