摘要:
When a transistor having bottom gate bottom contact structure is manufactured, for example, a conductive layer constituting a source and a drain has a three-layer structure and two-step etching is performed. In the first etching process, an etching method in which the etching rates for at least the second film and the third film are high is employed, and the first etching process is performed until at least the first film is exposed. In the second etching process, an etching method in which the etching rate for the first film is higher than that in the first etching process and the etching rate for a “layer provided below and in contact with the first film” is lower than that in the first etching process is employed. The side wall of the second film is slightly etched when a resist mask is removed after the second etching process.

When a transistor including a conductive layer having a three-layer structure is manufactured, three-stage etching is performed. In the first etching process, an etching method in which the etching rates for the second film and the third film are high is employed, and the first etching process is performed until the first film is at least exposed. In the second etching process, an etching method in which the etching rate for the first film is higher than that in the first etching process and the etching rate for a “layer provided below and in contact with the first film” is lower than that in the first etching process is employed. In the third etching process, an etching method in which the etching rates for the first to the third films are higher than those in the second etching process is preferably employed.

To establish a processing technique in manufacture of a semiconductor device including an In—Sn—Zn—O-based semiconductor. An In—Sn—Zn—O-based semiconductor layer is selectively etched by dry etching with the use of a gas containing chlorine such as Cl2, BCl3, SiCl4, or the like. In formation of a source electrode layer and a drain electrode layer, a conductive layer on and in contact with the In—Sn—Zn—O-based semiconductor layer can be selectively etched with little removal of the In—Sn—Zn—O-based semiconductor layer with the use of a gas containing oxygen or fluorine in addition to a gas containing chlorine.

A method for manufacturing a channel-etched inversed staggered thin film transistor includes the following steps: removing, by first dry-etching, a part of a semiconductor layer including an impurity element which imparts one conductivity type, which is exposed from the source and drain electrodes, and partially a part of an amorphous semiconductor layer just below and in contact with the part of the semiconductor layer; removing, by second dry-etching, partially the part of the amorphous semiconductor layer which is exposed by the first dry-etching; and performing plasma treatment on the surface of the part of the amorphous semiconductor layer which is exposed by the second dry-etching so that an altered layer is formed.
