Abstract:
A process for cleaning a silicon surface. First, a silicon surface is cleaned with an oxidant solution. Next, the silicon surface is rinsed with HF vapor or liquid and then with the silicon surface with hydrogen water or deionized water under megasonic agitation. Finally, the silicon surface is cleaned with an oxidant solution a second time. The present inventive cleaning process can be applied in thin film transistor (TFT) fabrication and the TFT obtained has higher electron mobility.
Abstract:
A diffusion barrier multi-layer structure for a TFT LCD by the LTPS process and the process for fabricating thereof are disclosed. By increasing the coarseness between two layers of the diffusion barrier multi-layer structure with a plasma treatment, or by forming a loose and porous impurity collecting layer between two layers of the diffusion barrier multi-layer structure to trap the impurity atoms, the impurity diffusion can be effectively obstructed.
