Thin Film Transistor, Array Substrate and Method of Forming the Same

Abstract

The present disclosure proposes a TFT. The source and the drain of the TFT are disposed on the same side as the gate. The gate includes a first buffer layer, a first copper layer, a second copper layer and a second buffer layer that are stacked from bottom to top, and the second buffer layer is disposed on the side that is close to the source and drain. The source and drain include a first buffer layer, a first copper layer, a second copper layer and a second buffer layer that are stacked, and the first buffer layer is disposed on the side that is close to the gate. The first copper layer is deposited by a first power, the second copper layer is deposited by a second power lower than the first power. Through the above method, it is prevents photoresist from shedding when etching.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to the field of display technology, and more specifically, to a thin-film transistor (TFT), an array substrate and a method of forming the same.[0003]2. Description of the Prior Art[0004]In the field of liquid crystal display (LCD), an array substrate installed with TFTs serves as a switch of the LCD panel, whose structure and technology is gravely important to its display effect. To respond to a current need of large-size display device and reduce problems such as resistance-capacitance (RC) delay, a TFT with its gate, source and drain made of low-cost, low-impedance copper is apparently the best choice.[0005]In a conventional production procedure of TFTs, the gate, source and drain of TFTs usually adopt a structure composed of stacked molybdenum layers and copper layers, or titanium layers and copper layers. The molybdenum layer and titanium layer serve as buffer layers. When making TFTs,...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a method for making a TFT with an improved structure to prevent photoresist from shedding during the etching process. By using a first buffer layer, a first copper layer, a second copper layer, and a second buffer layer, the production power of the second copper layer is lower to prevent photoresist shedding while ensuring smoothness of the surface and even covering of the second buffer layer. This results in a higher efficiency of TFT production.

Problems solved by technology

In the process of etching, the shedding of photoresist is common, resulting in over-etching.
