The first source S1, the first drain D1, the second source S2 and the second drain D2 can also use other conductive materials, such as: metal nitride, metal oxide, metal oxynitride, metal and Stacked layers of other conductive materials or other materials with conductive properties. The protection layer PL covers the first source S1 , the first drain D1 , the second source S2 and the second drain D2 .

在本實施例中,第一主動元件TFT1為第一源極S1電性連接至第一底閘極BG1的雙閘極型薄膜電晶體(本文將其稱為source-sync薄膜電晶體)。舉例來說,第一源極S1透過接觸孔V2而連接至第一底閘極BG1,其中接觸孔V2穿過第一閘介電層GI1、第二閘介電層GI2、第一層間介電層ILD1與第二層間介電層ILD2。在其他實施例中,第一源極S1未直接接觸第一底閘極BG1,且第一源極S1透過其他轉接電極而電性連接第一底閘極BG1。In this embodiment, the first active element TFT1 is a double-gate thin film transistor (referred to as a source-sync thin film transistor herein) in which the first source S1 is electrically connected to the first bottom gate BG1 . For example, the first source S1 is connected to the first bottom gate BG1 through the contact hole V2, wherein the contact hole V2 passes through the first gate dielectric layer GI1, the second gate dielectric layer GI2, the first interlayer dielectric The electrical layer ILD1 and the second interlayer dielectric layer ILD2. In other embodiments, the first source S1 does not directly contact the first bottom gate BG1 , and the first source S1 is electrically connected to the first bottom gate BG1 through other transfer electrodes.

表1為TG-sync薄膜電晶體與source-sync薄膜電晶體在半導體結構相同的情況下,各種特性的比較。在表1中,◎代表優秀,○代表尚可,▽代表差。 表1   TG-sync source-sync 開啟電流( Ion 值電壓( Vth 值電壓均勻性( Vth U% 極端引入的勢壘降低( DIBL 飽和開啟電流( Saturation Ion 正偏壓 - 溫度應力( PBTS 負偏壓 - 溫度應力( NBTS 負偏壓 - 照光應力( NBIS Table 1 is a comparison of various characteristics of TG-sync thin film transistors and source-sync thin film transistors under the same semiconductor structure. In Table 1, ◎ represents excellent, ○ represents acceptable, and ▽ represents poor. Table 1 TG-sync source-sync Turn-on current ( Ion ) Threshold Voltage ( Vth ) Threshold Voltage Uniformity ( Vth U% ) Drain -introduced barrier lowering ( DIBL ) Saturation turn-on current ( Saturation Ion ) Positive Bias - Temperature Stress ( PBTS ) Negative Bias - Temperature Stress ( NBTS ) Negative Bias - Illumination Stress ( NBIS )

由表1可以得知,TG-Sync薄膜電晶體適合用作開關薄膜電晶體(Switching TFT)。頂閘極電性連接至底閘極的設置可以增加開啟電流。雖然TG-Sync薄膜電晶體會有PBTS(Positive gate bias temperature stress)的問題。然而,由於開關薄膜電晶體需要開啟的時間相對短暫,將TG-Sync薄膜電晶體使用於開關薄膜電晶體不容易出現可靠度的問題。It can be seen from Table 1 that the TG-Sync thin film transistor is suitable for use as a switching thin film transistor (Switching TFT). The setting that the top gate is electrically connected to the bottom gate can increase the turn-on current. Although TG-Sync thin film transistors have PBTS (Positive gate bias temperature stress) problems. However, since the switch thin film transistor needs to be turned on for a relatively short time, the use of the TG-Sync thin film transistor for the switch thin film transistor is not prone to reliability problems.

此外,Source-Sync薄膜電晶體適合用作驅動薄膜電晶體(Driving TFT)。底閘極電性連接至源極的設置可以增加長期開啟的可靠性。然而,由於底閘極電性連接至低電位(例如接地電位),會導致Source-Sync薄膜電晶體的開啟電流變小。In addition, Source-Sync thin film transistors are suitable for driving TFTs. The setting that the bottom gate is electrically connected to the source can increase the reliability of long-term turn-on. However, since the bottom gate is electrically connected to a low potential (such as ground potential), the turn-on current of the Source-Sync thin film transistor will be reduced.

在圖1A至圖1B的實施例中,藉由增加第一半導體結構SM1的厚度t1,可以改善第一主動元件TFT1(Source-Sync薄膜電晶體)的開啟電流小的問題。此外,由於第二半導體結構SM2的厚度t2較小,可以改善第二主動元件TFT2(TG-Sync薄膜電晶體)的漏電問題。In the embodiment of FIG. 1A to FIG. 1B , by increasing the thickness t1 of the first semiconductor structure SM1 , the problem of small turn-on current of the first active element TFT1 (Source-Sync thin film transistor) can be improved. In addition, since the thickness t2 of the second semiconductor structure SM2 is small, the leakage problem of the second active element TFT2 (TG-Sync thin film transistor) can be improved.

圖2A是依照本發明的一些實施例的第一主動元件(Source-Sync薄膜電晶體)的第一半導體結構的厚度與閾值電壓的實驗數據圖。圖2A顯示了在第一狀況下之第一半導體結構的厚度與閾值電壓的關係以及在第二狀況下之第一半導體結構的厚度與閾值電壓的關係,其中第一狀況與第二狀況的差異在於:在第一狀況中,在沉積第一閘介電層GI1(請參考圖1B)時,二氧化氮對上矽甲烷的比例較高,且第一閘介電層GI1的厚度為1800埃;在第二狀況中,在沉積第一閘介電層GI1(請參考圖1B)時,二氧化氮對上矽甲烷的比例較低,且第一閘介電層GI1的厚度為2150埃。2A is an experimental data diagram of the thickness and threshold voltage of the first semiconductor structure of the first active device (Source-Sync TFT) according to some embodiments of the present invention. 2A shows the relationship between the thickness of the first semiconductor structure and the threshold voltage under the first condition and the relationship between the thickness of the first semiconductor structure and the threshold voltage under the second condition, wherein the difference between the first condition and the second condition In the first case, when depositing the first gate dielectric layer GI1 (please refer to FIG. 1B ), the ratio of nitrogen dioxide to upper silane is high, and the thickness of the first gate dielectric layer GI1 is 1800 angstroms ; In the second case, when depositing the first gate dielectric layer GI1 (please refer to FIG. 1B ), the ratio of nitrogen dioxide to upper silane is low, and the thickness of the first gate dielectric layer GI1 is 2150 angstroms.

由圖2A與圖2B可以得知,隨著第一半導體結構SM1(請參考圖1B)的厚度t1增加,第一主動元件TFT1的閾值電壓減少,且開啟電流提升。It can be seen from FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B that as the thickness t1 of the first semiconductor structure SM1 (please refer to FIG. 1B ) increases, the threshold voltage of the first active element TFT1 decreases and the turn-on current increases.

圖3是依照本發明的一些實施例的第一主動元件(Source-Sync薄膜電晶體)在長時間操作後的開啟電流的衰退(Ion drop)與閾值電壓的變化(Vth shift)。在圖3中,第一主動元件在90˚C下操作1小時,其中第一汲極與第一源極之間的電壓差Vds為20V,且操作電流為100uA。此外,在圖3的第一主動元件中,第一通道區的寬為50微米,且長為6微米。FIG. 3 shows the decay of the turn-on current (Ion drop) and the change of the threshold voltage (Vth shift) of the first active device (Source-Sync thin film transistor) after long-time operation according to some embodiments of the present invention. In Fig. 3, the first active device was operated at 90°C for 1 hour, the voltage difference Vds between the first drain and the first source was 20V, and the operating current was 100uA. In addition, in the first active device shown in FIG. 3 , the first channel region has a width of 50 microns and a length of 6 microns.

由圖3可以得知,隨著第一半導體結構的厚度提升,第一主動元件在長前間操作後的電流衰退較小,且閾值電壓的衰退也較小。It can be seen from FIG. 3 that as the thickness of the first semiconductor structure increases, the current degradation of the first active device after long-term operation is smaller, and the threshold voltage degradation is also smaller.
