- Patent Document 1 Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2003-89864
- an A1-based alloy wiring material that satisfies the following characteristics is required.
- Gate in the device structure of Figure 1 For the electrode wiring circuit layer 2 of the electrode G, it is necessary to be able to directly join with a transparent electrode layer such as ITO in the lead-out wiring portion, although not shown in the drawing, and preferably satisfy heat resistance of 350 ° C or higher. Is required. The reason is that a high temperature thermal history is added when forming the gate insulating film formed on the gate electrode G, so that the electrode wiring circuit layer causes defects such as hillocks even at a temperature of 350 ° C or higher. This is because there is a need for such heat resistance.
- the electrode wiring circuit layer 2 of the drain electrode portion D and the source electrode portion S in the element structure of FIG. 1 can be directly joined to a transparent electrode layer such as ITO, and n + -Si or the like It is required that direct bonding with the semiconductor layer is possible.

We propose an element structure of a display device that does not occur.
- the nickel content is the atomic percentage Xat% of nickel
- the boron content is the atomic percentage Yat%.
- Al—Ni— ⁇ alloy wiring material that is in the range of the area satisfying each of the formulas, with the balance being aluminum.
- the Al—Ni—B alloy wiring material in the present invention may be mixed in, for example, a material manufacturing process, a wiring circuit forming process, an element manufacturing process, or the like, as long as it does not deviate from the effects described below. It does not prevent the mixing of certain gas components and other inevitable impurities.
- Nickel has an effect of forming an intermetallic compound with aluminum by heat treatment to improve bonding characteristics in direct bonding with the transparent electrode layer.
- high nickel content As a result, the specific resistance of the wiring circuit itself becomes high and becomes impractical.
- the nickel content if the nickel content is low, the amount of intermetallic compounds produced with aluminum decreases, making direct bonding to the transparent electrode layer impossible, and heat resistance (a deterrent effect against the occurrence of plastic deformation of the A1-based alloy wiring material due to heat). ) Also tends to decrease. For these reasons, the nickel content must satisfy the above formula (1).
- the nickel content exceeds 10.0 &%, the specific resistance value of the wiring material becomes too large and a dimple-like defect called dimple is easily formed on the surface of the wiring material. There is a tendency that heat resistance cannot be secured.
- a so-called hillock protrusion is likely to be formed on the surface of the wiring material, and heat resistance tends not to be ensured.
- This dimple is a micro-dent-like defect formed on the surface of the material due to stress strain generated when heat-treating the A1 alloy wiring material. When this dimple is generated, it adversely affects the bonding characteristics and Reliability decreases.
- hillocks are the opposite of dimples, and are forces that are projections formed on the surface of the material due to the stress and strain generated when heat-treating an A1-based alloy wiring material. This will adversely affect the bonding reliability.
- These dimples and hillocks are common in that they are plastic deformation of the A1 alloy wiring material due to heat. This phenomenon is collectively called stress migration.
- A1 alloy wiring material depends on the level of occurrence of these defects. The heat resistance of can be judged.
- the inventors of the present application reliably prevent mutual diffusion of A1 and Si at the bonding interface even in a thermal process at a temperature exceeding 240 ° C when directly bonded to the semiconductor layer. In order to do so, it was found that the above formula (3) must be satisfied. They found that the above formula (4) must be satisfied in order to reliably maintain the specific resistance of the Al—Ni—B alloy wiring material itself at 10 ⁇ cm or less.
- the dimple is a minute dent-like defect formed on the surface of the wiring material when the Al—Ni—B alloy wiring material is heat-treated. After performing the prescribed heat treatment on the Ni-B alloy wiring material, the surface of the material was observed and the generated dimples (0.3 to 0.5 m) were investigated. In this dimple investigation, the area of all the dimples generated in the observation field of view was obtained, and the area ratio of the dimples in the observation field of view was used as the dimple generation rate.
- the above-mentioned (1) to (4 ) If the nickel content is 4.0% or more and the boron content is 0.80at% or less within the range satisfying the formula, dimple generation occurs even when heat treatment is performed at 350 ° C for 30 minutes. It was found that the survival rate can be suppressed to 1.6% or less. It is desirable that this dimple should not be generated as much as possible. If this dimple generation rate is low, even if it passes through a thermal process in the element manufacturing process of the display device, it is a bonded interface directly bonded to the semiconductor layer or transparent electrode layer. In this case, a bonding defect or the like is generated, and the bonding reliability is improved.
- the dimple generation rate is suppressed to 1.6% or less, for example, the on / off ratio (onZoff ratio) of a TFT having a structure directly bonded to a semiconductor layer is stabilized, and connection reliability is improved. It is considered a thing.
- the Al—Ni—B alloy wiring material according to the present invention is suitable for direct bonding to a semiconductor layer or a transparent electrode layer, for example, a high melting point metal material such as Mo is applied to the semiconductor layer side. Cap layer This does not prevent application in the provided element structure.
- the A1-Ni-B alloy wiring material according to the present invention according to the present invention as a so-called reflective film. .
- the inventors of the present application among the ranges satisfying the above formulas (1) to (4), the nickel content is 4.0 at% to 6. Oat% and the boron content is 0.20 at%. It was found that when it is ⁇ 0.8 at%, it becomes a particularly suitable Al—Ni—B alloy wiring material when directly bonding to a semiconductor layer.
- This deteriorated layer tends to be generated more easily as the heat treatment temperature becomes higher, and it is desirable that the deteriorated layer should not be generated by heat treatment (30 minutes) at 200 ° C. or higher.
- the nickel content is 4.0 at% to 6. Oat%, and boron is contained.
- the specific resistance of the wiring material itself is 5 ⁇ cm or less.
- the nickel content is 4.0 at% to 6. Oat% in the range satisfying the above formulas (1) to (4). If the boron content is in the composition range of 0.20 at% to 0.80 at%, when the semiconductor layer surface roughness value before direct bonding is 1, the semiconductor layer that is directly bonded and exposed after heat treatment is exposed. It was further found that the surface roughness value can be changed by 1.5 times or less.
- the amount of change in the surface roughness of the semiconductor layer is not clearly understood as a parameter directly related to the interdiffusion between Si and A1, the higher the heat treatment temperature, the more It has been confirmed that the amount of change is large.
- changes in the surface state of the semiconductor layer are expected to affect the switching characteristics of TFTs. In other words, it is presumed that this leads to a change in the on / off ratio (onZoff ratio) in the TFT, and the surface state of the semiconductor layer does not change much even if heat treatment is performed with direct bonding to the semiconductor layer. It is expected that the switching characteristics can be maintained well.
- the surface roughness Rz of the semiconductor layer exposed by peeling off the A1-based alloy wiring material is set to 1 when the surface roughness value of the semiconductor layer before direct bonding is 1.
- a change of 1.5 times or less of the previous semiconductor layer surface roughness value is considered to ensure sufficient connection reliability in consideration of TFT switching characteristics.
- the surface roughness Rz is adopted when specifying the surface state, but the surface property parameters described in JIS B0601 etc.
- parameters such as surface roughness Ra (arithmetic mean roughness) can be employed.
- the inventors of the present application relate to an element structure of a display device having a structure in which an A1-based alloy wiring material is directly bonded to a transparent electrode layer or a semiconductor layer.
- the surface roughness Ra of the A1-based alloy film was studied as a cause of poor bonding, and the A1—Ni—B alloy constituting the wiring circuit directly bonded to the semiconductor layer and Z or transparent electrode layer was studied.
- the surface roughness Ra of the Al—Ni—B alloy film formed from the Al-based alloy wiring material of the present invention is less than 2.OA, the bonding strength is low when the transparent electrode layer is directly bonded, 20. Above OA, it was found that the tendency of contact resistance value to increase was prominent.
- the surface roughness Ra is the surface roughness of the Al—Ni—B alloy film after film formation.
- the deposited Al-Ni-B alloy film has a structure in which a semiconductor layer is further formed in the case of a staggered structure or a transparent electrode layer is formed in the case of an inverted staggered structure. .
- the surface roughness Ra is obtained by performing non-contact measurement with an atomic force microscope (AFM) and calculating Ra according to JIS B0601-1982.
- the film thickness is 1000 A to 3000 A. If the Al—Ni—B alloy film thickness is less than 1000 A, it will be difficult for the effective resistance value when the wiring circuit is formed to satisfy a practical level, and if it exceeds 3000 A, the Al—Ni—B This is because the coverage of the upper layer laminated on the alloy film becomes non-uniform, and it tends to be difficult to form a practical element structure.
- the wiring circuit layer formed of the Al—Ni—B alloy wiring material of the present invention is dispersed and precipitated in the wiring circuit layer when the element is formed. It was found that the precipitates were uniformly dispersed without segregation.
- the proper shape can be obtained due to the difference in etching speed between the part where the prayer is generated and the part where no segregation occurs. It may happen that a wiring circuit cannot be formed.
- the wiring circuit layer formed of the Al—Ni—B alloy wiring material of the present invention when the element is constituted, Ni compound is dispersed and precipitated. On the line segment perpendicular to the wiring circuit layer thickness direction in the section of the wiring circuit layer, the abundance ratio is 25% to 45% in the thickness direction of the wiring circuit layer. In other words, the Ni composite does not tend to segregate over the entire thickness of the wiring circuit layer (see Fig. 6). Therefore, it is not necessary to specify the location where the transparent electrode layer or semiconductor layer is directly bonded, as in the A 1 Ni—Nd alloy wiring material described above, and a wiring circuit having an appropriate circuit shape can be reliably formed by etching. It becomes.
- Ni compound dispersed and precipitated in the wiring circuit layer formed of the Al—Ni—B alloy wiring material according to the present invention is mainly an Al Ni phase intermetallic compound.
- the present inventors are Ni compounds
- the nickel content is set to an atomic percentage Xat% of nickel, and the boron content is set to boron atoms.
- the percentage is Yat%, it is preferable to use a sputtering target that is in the range of the region satisfying the above formulas (1) to (4) and the balance being aluminum.
- the nickel content is 4.0 at% to 6. Oat% and the boron content is 0.20 at% to 0.80 at%. If it is a target, a wiring circuit that is extremely suitable for direct bonding to a semiconductor layer can be easily realized.
- a sputtering target having such a composition is used, an Al—Ni—B alloy thin film having almost the same composition as the force target composition, which may be somewhat affected by the film formation conditions during sputtering, can be easily formed.
- a wiring circuit may be formed by the aerosol deposition method using alloy particles having the A1—Ni—B alloy composition power of the present invention, which may be a dry method such as vapor deposition or spray homing, as a wiring material. And forming a wiring circuit by an ink jet method.
