Recently, amorphous metal-oxide semiconductors (AOSs) such as indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) have attracted great attention with their lower power consumption and higher mobility than amorphous silicon in the display field. However, the threshold voltage (Vth) shift of IGZO thin film transistor (TFT) caused by their poor reliability leads to the drop panel luminance. Therefore, improvement of IGZO TFT reliability is necessary, which is largely influenced by oxygen vacancy and hydrogen. In particular, hydrogen has shown different roles inside the IGZO active layer by hydrogen concentration. At lower concentration, the hydrogen passivation of oxygen deficiency region induces the improvement of initial electrical characteristics and reliability [2]. Meanwhile, Vth shift and degradation reliability are generated at higher concentration owing to the hydrogen related defect states [3]. Therefore, controlling excess hydrogen is necessary for reliability enhancement. In this work, IGZO thin film was fabricated by cryopumping system instead of a turbo molecular pump (TMP) for radio frequency sputtering to reduce hydrogen concentration. Cryopump is an adsorption type that enables excellent evacuation ability of hydrogen and moisture taking up most of the partial pressure in high vacuum. As a result, deposition of IGZO thin film with lower hydrogen impurity is available. The hydrogen concentration in the IGZO thin film using both cryopump and TMP was quantitatively analyzed by elastic recoil detection (ERD) analysis. Then, electrical characteristics of the self-aligned top-gate structure TFTs fabricated by both pumps were measured with bias stress conditions. To sum up, we showed the improved reliability of IGZO TFT by controlling excess hydrogen using cryopumping system. Fig.1. (a) Schematic of RF magnetron sputtering process with cryopump.
