Abstract:
To provide a highly reliable semiconductor device including an oxide semiconductor by suppression of change in its electrical characteristics. Oxygen is supplied from a base insulating layer provided below an oxide semiconductor layer and a gate insulating layer provided over the oxide semiconductor layer to a region where a channel is formed, whereby oxygen vacancies which might be generated in the channel are filled. Further, extraction of oxygen from the oxide semiconductor layer by a source electrode layer or a drain electrode layer in the vicinity of the channel formed in the oxide semiconductor layer is suppressed, whereby oxygen vacancies which might be generated in a channel are suppressed.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for manufacturing a transistor by which the defective shape of a semiconductor device is prevented in the case where a source electrode layer and a drain electrode layer are formed on an oxide semiconductor film. A source electrode layer and a drain electrode layer are formed each having a cross-sectional shape with which disconnection of a gate insulating film is unlikely to occur even when the gate insulating film over the source electrode layer and the drain electrode layer has a small thickness. An oxide semiconductor film having a crystal structure over an insulating surface is formed; an electrode layer on the oxide semiconductor film is formed; and a thickness of an exposed portion of the oxide semiconductor film is reduced by exposing the oxide semiconductor film to dilute hydrofluoric acid with a concentration higher than 0.0001% and lower than or equal to 0.25%.

With such a structure, an Lov region is formed with a scaled-down channel length maintained.
