    摘要: A metal wiring plus low-k dielectric interconnect structure of the dual damascene-type is provided wherein the conductive metal lines and vias are built into a hybrid low-k dielectric which includes two spun-on dielectrics that have different atomic compositions and at least one of the two spun-on dielectrics is porous. The two spun-on dielectrics used in forming the inventive hybrid low-k dielectric each have a dielectric constant of about 2.6 or less, preferably each dielectric of the hybrid structure has a k of from about 1.2 to about 2.2. By utilizing the inventive hybrid low-k dielectric excellent control over metal line resistance (trench depth) is obtained, without no added cost. This is achieved without the use of a buried etch stop layer, which if present, would be formed between the two spun-on dielectrics. Moreover, the spun-on dielectrics of the hybrid low-k dielectric have distinctly different atomic compositions enabling control over the conductor resistance using the bottom spun-on dielectric (i.e., via dielectric) as an inherent etch stop layer for the upper spun-on dielectric (i.e., line dielectric).

    摘要: A semiconductor device such as a P-N or P-I-N junction diode, includes a first semiconductor layer having a first conductivity-type and being mounted over a metal address line, and a second semiconductor layer having a second conductivity-type and being mounted over the first semiconductor material. The diode preferably has a thickness of substantially no more than about 1 micron, and the diode includes a P-N junction confined to a thickness of less than about 0.1 micron. In the preferred embodiment the method comprises depositing a first semiconductor layer having a first conductivity type, depositing a second intrinsic layer, annealing to convert both layers to a polycrystalline layer, implanting ions of a second conductivity type into the second layer, and annealing to convert the second layer to a polycrystalline. The result is a diode having an ultra-sharp p-n junction.

    摘要: A thin film transistor is described incorporating a gate electrode, a gate insulating layer, a semiconducting channel layer deposited on top of the gate insulating layer, an insulating encapsulation layer positioned on the channel layer, a source electrode, a drain electrode and a contact layer beneath each of the source and drain electrodes and in contact with at least the channel layer, all of which are situated on a plastic substrate. By enabling the use of plastics having low glass transition temperatures as substrates, the thin film transistors may be used in large area electronics such as information displays and light sensitive arrays for imaging which are flexible, lighter in weight and more impact resistant than displays fabricated on traditional glass substrates. The thin film transistors are useful in active matrix liquid crystal displays where the plastic substrates are transparent in the visible spectrum. Enablement of the use of such plastics is by way of the use of polymeric encapsulation films to coat the surfaces of the plastic substrates prior to subsequent processing and the use of novel low temperature processes for the deposition of thin film transistor structures.
