図1に示す製造装置10は、本発明の実施形態の有機半導体膜の製造方法に用いられるものであり、塗布法を用いるものである。
ステージ14と温度コントローラ16とはドライバ18に接続されており、ドライバ18により、ステージ14による後述の基板30の移動、および温度コントローラ16による後述の基板30の温度が制御される。塗布部材20は供給管22を介して供給部24に接続されている。
ガイドレール26はモータ28に接続されており、モータ28により、塗布部材20が第1の方向Xと第1の方向Xの反対方向に移動する。
ドライバ18、供給部24およびモータ28は制御部29に接続されており、ドライバ18、供給部24およびモータ28は制御部29で制御される。
ステージ14は基板30を上述の第1の方向Xとその反対方向、および第2の方向Yとその反対方向に移動させることができれば、その構成は特に限定されるものではない。
温度コントローラ16は、基板30の温度を予め定められた温度にし、その温度を保持するものである。温度コントローラ16は、上述のように基板30の温度を予め定められた温度にすることができれば、その構成は特に限定されるものではない。温度コントローラ16には、例えば、ホットプレートを用いることができる。
なお、基板30とは、基板30単体のみならず、基板30の表面30aに層が形成されている場合、その層の表面に有機半導体膜を形成する場合には、その層の表面が基板30の表面30aに相当する。
供給部24は、上述のように塗布部材20に有機半導体溶液を供給するものであり、例えば、有機半導体溶液を貯留するタンク(図示せず)と、タンク内の有機半導体溶液を塗布部材20に送出するポンプ(図示せず)と、有機半導体溶液の送出量を測定する流量計(図示せず)を有する。供給部24としては、例えば、シリンジポンプを用いることができる。
供給部24、供給管22は適時加熱温調していることが望ましい。供給部24および供給管22の温度は望ましくは基板温度と同程度の温度とする。加熱により有機半導体溶液36を確実に溶解させておくことにより安定的に有機半導体溶液36の供給ができる。また、供給時に有機半導体溶液36と基板30との温度差が小さいほど、安定した液溜り34を形成できる。
蒸気供給部25aは、上述のように塗布部材20に有機半導体溶液の溶媒の蒸気を供給するものであり、例えば、有機半導体溶液の溶媒を貯留するタンク(図示せず)と、タンク内の有機半導体溶液の溶媒を蒸気にするヒータ(図示せず)を有する。溶媒の蒸気は、溶媒の蒸気の圧力で塗布部材20に送気してもよく、ブロア(図示せず)を用いて溶媒の蒸気を塗布部材20に送気してもよい。上述の溶媒の蒸気の送気方式は、有機半導体溶液の溶媒の蒸気量、配管25の長さ等に応じて適宜設定されるものである。配管25は塗布部材20が移動する際に、追従できるように可撓性があるものであることが好ましい。なお、塗布部材20に有機半導体溶液の溶媒の蒸気を供給する蒸気供給部25aは必ずしも設ける必要はない。
配管25はタンク同等に加熱するのが好ましい。加熱により、配管25内への結露を抑制し、有機半導体溶液の溶媒の蒸気を効果的に導入することができる。
キャリッジ27はガイドレール26により第1の方向Xとその反対方向に移動可能であり、塗布部材20はキャリッジ27とともに第1の方向Xとその反対方向に移動する。キャリッジ27はモータ28により、第1の方向Xとその反対方向に移動される。
キャリッジ27の位置はガイドレール26に設けられたリニアスケール(図示せず)の読み取り値から算出することができ、これにより、塗布部材20の第1の方向Xにおける位置を算出することができる。キャリッジ27は、塗布部材20の取り付け高さと、取り付け角度を変えることができるものである。
図2は本発明の実施形態の有機半導体膜の製造装置の塗布部材およびカバー部を示す模式的断面図であり、図3は塗布部材およびカバー部の平面図であり、図4はカバー部の変形例を示す模式的断面図である。
塗布部材20は、図2および図3に示すように、平板で構成された塗布ブレード32を有する。塗布ブレード32は、端面32aが平面である。塗布部材20は、塗布ブレード32の端面32aを基板30の表面30aと平行にして配置される。また、塗布ブレード32は、基板30の表面30aと離間して配置されており、端面32aと基板30の表面30aの隙間がある。この隙間がギャップGである。塗布ブレード32と基板30の表面30aの間に液溜り34が形成される。
ギャップGの長さdは、基板30の表面30aと塗布ブレード32の端面32a迄の長さのことである。なお、ギャップGの長さdは、200μm以下が好ましい。
また、より正確には、塗布ブレード32の側面から基板30を含むデジタル画像を取得し、このデジタル画像をコンピュータに取り込み、そのデジタル画像を基に、基板30の表面30aと塗布ブレード32の角部32d迄の長さをコンピュータ上で測定する。
なお、有機半導体膜38を形成する際には塗布部材20を有機半導体溶液36に接した状態で、DF方向に移動させる。また、有機半導体膜38を形成する際には塗布部材20を有機半導体溶液36に接した状態で、基板30をDB方向に移動させてもよい。
有機半導体溶液36の結晶成長部Cgとは、有機半導体膜38が形成される起点となる領域のことであり、液溜り34のDB方向側で有機半導体溶液36の液面36a(図2参照)が基板30の表面30aと接する領域である。
結晶成長部Cgについては、液溜り34と有機半導体膜38を含むデジタル画像を取得し、このデジタル画像をコンピュータに取り込み、そのデジタル画像を基に、液溜り34と有機半導体膜38の境界近傍を目視観察することで、結晶成長部Cgを特定することができる。
カバー部50は、基板30の表面30aに対して傾斜した傾斜部52を有し、傾斜部52のX方向における各端部に平面部54、56が設けられている。また、傾斜部52のY方向の端部にサイド部55が設けられている。傾斜部52は、結晶成長部Cgから液溜り34に向かうにつれて基板30の表面30aとの距離が短くなる傾斜面52bを有する。
また、傾斜部52には、塗布ブレード32が貫通する開口部53が設けられている。図2(b)に示すように、傾斜部52Y方向の端には、塗布ブレード32と開口部53の間に隙間がある。カバー部50により、塗布ブレード32の周囲が液溜り34、結晶成長部Cgを含め覆われており、カバー部50により、液溜り34、結晶成長部Cgの上方の空間が密閉される。
なお、傾斜面52bは、基板30の表面30aとの距離が単調に短くなる傾斜を備えることが好ましい。カバー部50では、傾斜面52bを含め傾斜部52がガイドである。カバー部50はキャリッジ27に設置されており、塗布ブレード32と一体となって動く。
なお、付着物37には、有機半導体溶液36の溶媒が揮発して浮遊するものは含まれない。
結晶成長部Cgおよび液溜り34に付着物37が落下すると、結晶成長部Cgおよび液溜り34が振動する。結晶成長部Cgおよび液溜り34の振動は形成する有機半導体膜38の膜質に悪影響を及ぼすため、結晶成長部Cgおよび液溜り34は振動させないことが好ましい。
また、付着物37が基板30の表面30aに落下しても、平面部56側の基板30の表面30aは未成膜領域39であり、有機半導体膜38の形成予定領域であるが、付着物37が付着していても、有機半導体膜38の形成には影響がない。
さらには、カバー部50を設けることで、結晶成長部Cgの上方の空間の密閉度を高くでき、有機半導体膜38形成時の塗布部材20または基板30の移動に伴い発生する風が結晶成長部Cgに当たらず、結晶成長部Cgの振動を抑制することができ、有機半導体膜38を安定して形成することができる。
このようなことから、有機半導体膜38を連続形成する場合に、基板30の温度を高くして、塗布部材20または基板30の移動速度を速くしても、結晶性が高い良質の有機半導体膜38を連続して得ることができる。
図5は本発明の実施形態の有機半導体膜の製造装置に用いられる基板の一例を示す模式図であり、図6は本発明の実施形態の有機半導体膜の製造方法を説明するための平面図である。
図5に示すように、基板30の表面30aに対して、例えば、1つの有機半導体膜38を形成する場合、基板30の表面30aにおいて有機半導体膜38以外の領域30cは、有機半導体膜38の未成膜領域39である。なお、有機半導体膜38の形成予定領域であっても、まだ有機半導体膜38が形成されていない領域は未成膜領域39に含まれる。
次に、基板30の表面30aと塗布ブレード32の間に、供給部24から供給管22を介して有機半導体溶液36を供給し、塗布ブレード32と基板30の表面30aの間に液溜り34を形成する。このとき、基板30の温度は、上述の温度コントローラ16で予め定められた温度にされている。
有機半導体膜38を連続形成する場合、上述のように有機半導体膜38を連続形成する場合に、基板30の温度を高くして、塗布部材20または基板30の移動速度を速くしても、結晶性が高い良質の有機半導体膜38を連続して得ることができる。
なお、有機半導体溶液36の供給量は、基板30の温度、移動速度、形成する有機半導体膜38の大きさ等に応じて適宜決定されるものである。
方向DFは、X方向と同じ方向であり、方向DBは方向DFの逆方向である。
有機半導体膜38形成時の基板30の温度Tsは、より好ましくはTb-40℃≦Ts≦Tbの温度に保たれている。
また、有機半導体膜38の形成時の塗布部材20の移動速度は、1mm/分以上であることが好ましく、上限としては、例えば、5mm/分である。移動速度が1~5mm/分であれば、液溜り34で有機半導体溶液36の振動が抑制され、有機半導体膜38を安定して成膜することできる。なお、有機半導体膜38の形成時に基板30を移動させる場合には、基板30の移動速度は、上述の塗布部材20の移動速度と同じにすることができる。
また、有機半導体膜38の形成は、例えば、大気中、大気圧下でなされる。
図7は本発明の実施形態の有機半導体膜の製造方法を利用して製造される薄膜トランジスタの一例を示す模式的断面図である。
図7に示す薄膜トランジスタ40はボトムゲート、トップコンタクト型のトランジスタである。薄膜トランジスタ40は、基板42の表面42aにゲート電極43が形成されている。このゲート電極43を覆う絶縁膜44が基板42の表面42aに形成されている。絶縁膜44の表面44aに有機半導体層46が形成されている。この有機半導体層46が、上述の有機半導体膜の製造方法で製造される。有機半導体層46の表面46aにソース電極48aとドレイン電極48bが形成されている。
なお、薄膜トランジスタ40では、絶縁膜44の表面44aに有機半導体層46が形成されているが、この場合、上述のように、絶縁膜44の表面44aが基板30の表面30aに相当する。
塗布部材20では供給管22が図2に示すように、塗布ブレード32に貫通されているが、これに限定されるものではない。図8に示すように塗布ブレード32に設けることなく、傾斜部52の塗布ブレード32よりも平面部56側に供給管22を配置してもよい。なお、塗布ブレード32の結晶成長部Cgとなる側に供給管22を配置してもよい。
また、図9に示すように塗布ブレード32に設けることなく、塗布ブレード32の結晶成長部Cgとは反対側の側面32bに供給管22を配置してもよい。図9に示す場合でも、供給管22は塗布ブレード32の結晶成長部Cg側の側面に配置してもよい。
なお、供給管22の配置数は、上述のように1つに限定されるものではなく複数でもよく、塗布部材20の大きさ、有機半導体膜38の大きさ等に応じて適宜決定される。
ここで、図10は本発明の実施形態の有機半導体膜の製造装置のカバー部の第1の例を示す模式的断面図である。
なお、図10において、図2および図3に示す塗布部材20およびカバー部50と同一構成物には、同一符号を付してその詳細な説明は省略する。
加熱部23は、例えば、上述のように抵抗加熱方式のヒータであり、上述のようにコントローラ23aに接続されている。カバー部50が加熱部23で加熱される。このため、有機半導体溶液36の溶媒が蒸発してカバー部50に付着しても、付着物37が形成されること自体が抑制される。傾斜面52bに、蒸発した有機半導体溶液36の溶媒で形成される付着物37が付着した場合でも、付着物37が加熱され、傾斜面52bに沿って移動しやすくなり、付着物37を平面部56側により導きやすくなる。これにより、付着物37が結晶成長部Cgおよび有機半導体膜38に落下することが更に抑制され、さらには液溜り34に落下することも更に抑制される。
なお、加熱部23を結晶成長部Cgに対向する領域52dに設けたが、これに限定されるものではなく、加熱部23は少なくとも一部を加熱するものである。加熱部23は傾斜部52において液溜り34の平面部56側の領域52eに設けてもよく、更には傾斜部52全面に加熱部23を設けてもよい。
加熱部23でカバー部50を加熱する際、加熱温度は基板30の温度以上であることが好ましい。
なお、図11および図12において、図2および図3に示す塗布部材20およびカバー部50と同一構成物には、同一符号を付してその詳細な説明は省略する。
図11および図12に示すように塗布ブレード32とカバー部58は一体化されており、開口部53がなく、塗布ブレード32の周囲に隙間がない。隙間なく塗布ブレード32とカバー部58を一体にすることで、結晶成長部Cgの上方の空間の密閉度を高くすることができ、有機半導体膜38の形成時、有機半導体溶液36の溶媒が蒸発した際、内部58aの溶媒蒸気圧をより高く保つことができ、溶媒の蒸発速度をより抑えることができる。これにより、結晶性がより高い有機半導体膜38をより得やすい。
また、カバー部58は隙間がないため、溶媒の蒸気が外部に漏れることが抑制されるため、内部58aの溶媒蒸気圧の変動も抑制され、有機半導体膜38を安定にして形成することができる。
なお、図13~図15において、図2および図3に示す塗布部材20およびカバー部50と同一構成物には、同一符号を付してその詳細な説明は省略する。
蒸気供給部25aにより、例えば、有機半導体溶液36の溶媒の蒸気がカバー部50内に供給される。これにより、有機半導体膜38の形成時、内部51の溶媒蒸気圧を高くすることができ、有機半導体溶液36の溶媒の蒸発速度を抑えることができる。これにより、結晶性がより高い有機半導体膜38を得ることができる。
配管25の数は、1つに限定されるものではなく、複数でもよく、形成する有機半導体膜38の大きさ、要求される有機半導体膜38の品質等に応じて適宜設定される。また、供給される有機半導体溶液36の溶媒の蒸気の温度は、基板30の温度と同等であることが好ましい。
なお、図2および図3に示す塗布部材20およびカバー部50では、上述の加熱部23を設けること、上述の蒸気供給部25aによる溶媒の蒸気を供給すること、およびカバー部50と塗布ブレード32を一体にすることのうち、少なくとも2つを組み合わせてもよく、全部組み合わせてもよい。
なお、図16において、図2および図3に示す塗布部材20およびカバー部50と同一構成物には、同一符号を付してその詳細な説明は省略する。
塗布ブレード60は基板30の表面30aと対向する端面62が、基板30の表面30aに対して傾斜している。塗布部材20は塗布ブレード60の端面62を基板30の表面30aと離間して配置され、塗布ブレード60の端面62と、基板30の表面30aとの間に液溜り34が形成される。
塗布ブレード60の端面62を傾斜させることにより、図2に示す端面32aが基板30の表面30aと平行な塗布ブレード32に比して、液溜り34の振動を抑えることができる。これにより、結晶性がより高い有機半導体膜38を得ることができる。
傾斜角度θが1°~14°であれば、適量の有機半導体溶液36を保持でき、移動度が高い結晶膜を速い移動速度で作製することができる。上述の塗布ブレード60の傾斜角度θは、基板30の表面30aと塗布ブレード60の端面62とのなす角度である。また、塗布ブレード60の長さは2cm程度である。
有機半導体膜38形成時の基板30の温度Tsは、より好ましくはTb-20℃≦Ts≦Tbの温度に保たれている。
また、有機半導体膜38の形成時の塗布部材20の塗布ブレード60の移動速度は、5mm/分以上であることが好ましく、より好ましくは10mm/分以上である。移動速度が5mm/分以上であれば、有機半導体膜38について速い成膜速度が得られ、生産性を高くすることができる。なお、上述の移動速度の上限値は100mm/分程度であり、斜めの塗布ブレード60では、移動速度が100mm/分程度迄は結晶性および移動度が高い有機半導体膜を得ることができる。図16に示す構成で、有機半導体膜38の形成時に塗布部材20を有機半導体溶液36に接した状態で、基板30を移動させる場合には、基板30の移動速度は、上述の塗布部材20の塗布ブレード60の移動速度と同じにすることができる。
なお、図17~図19において、図2および図3に示す塗布部材20およびカバー部50と同一構成物には、同一符号を付してその詳細な説明は省略する。
このように、傾く向きがY方向のカバー部64であっても、図2および図3のカバー部50と同様に付着物37を未成膜領域39に導くことができ、結晶性が高い良質の有機半導体膜38を得ることができる。
カバー部64は、付着物37を有機半導体膜38が形成されない、有機半導体膜38の脇に未成膜領域39に導くものであり、カバー部50の有機半導体膜38の形成予定領域とは異なる。このため、付着物37が有機半導体膜38に含まれることがない。
図17および図18に示すカバー部64でも、上述の加熱部23を設けてもよく、また、上述の蒸気供給部25aにより溶媒の蒸気をカバー部64内に供給してもよい。さらには、カバー部64と塗布ブレード32を一体にしてもよい。これらのうち、少なくとも2つを組み合わせてもよく、全部組み合わせてもよい。
なお、図20~図22において、図2および図3に示す塗布部材20およびカバー部50と同一構成物には、同一符号を付してその詳細な説明は省略する。
傾斜部72の各傾斜板75の裏面が傾斜面72b、72cであり、この傾斜面72b、72cで、有機半導体溶液36の溶媒で形成される付着物37が、有機半導体膜38のY方向およびY方向の反対方向の未成膜領域39に導かれる。カバー部70でも、付着物37を有機半導体膜38が形成されない、有機半導体膜38の脇に未成膜領域39に導くものであり、カバー部50の有機半導体膜38の形成予定領域とは異なる。このため、付着物37が有機半導体膜38に含まれることがない。
また、カバー部70でも、カバー部50と同様に内部70bの溶媒蒸気圧を高くでき、溶媒の蒸発速度を抑制することができる。
図20および図21に示すカバー部70でも、上述の加熱部23を設けてもよく、また、上述の蒸気供給部25aにより溶媒の蒸気をカバー部70内に供給してもよい。さらには、カバー部70と塗布ブレード32を一体にしてもよい。これらのうち、少なくとも2つを組み合わせてもよく、全部組み合わせてもよい。
なお、図23において、図17および図18に示す塗布部材20およびカバー部64と同一構成物には、同一符号を付してその詳細な説明は省略する。
傾斜部80はY方向の断面において円弧状に湾曲しており、曲面59bは、傾斜面66bと同じく、付着物37を有機半導体膜38のY方向の未成膜領域39に導くものである。Y方向において基板30の表面30aとの距離が短くなる傾斜を備えている。
カバー部64aでも、カバー部50と同様に内部64bの溶媒蒸気圧を高くでき、溶媒の蒸発速度を抑制することができる。
図24に示すカバー部70aは、図20および図21に示すカバー部70に比して、傾斜部82の裏面が曲面82bである点が異なり、それ以外の構成は、図20および図21に示すカバー部70と同じである。カバー部70aでは、曲面82bがガイドである。
図20のカバー部70、および図24のカバー部70aでも、さらに上述の結晶成長部Cgから液溜り34に向かうにつれて基板30の表面30aとの距離が短くなる斜面を組み合わせてもよい。
カバー部70aでも、カバー部50と同様に内部70bの溶媒蒸気圧を高くでき、溶媒の蒸発速度を抑制することができる。
図25に示すカバー部50aのように、平面部54の下面54bをY方向に傾斜する斜面としてもよい。平面部54の下面54bは、図18に示すY方向に傾斜する傾斜面66bと同様の機能を発揮する。これにより、平面部54の内面54aに付着物37が付着した場合、内面54aに沿って付着物37が有機半導体膜38の方に落下しても下面54bにより、Y方向に沿ってガイドされて、付着物37は有機半導体膜38の脇に導かれる。
なお、図25に示す符号54dは、傾斜していない状態の平面部54の下面を示す。
また、図26に示すカバー部50bのように、平面部54の下面を傾斜の向きを変えた2つの斜面54cで構成してもよい。2つの斜面54cは、図21に示すY方向の傾斜の向きを変えた2つの傾斜面72b、72cと同様の機能を発揮する。これにより、平面部54の内面54aに付着物37が付着した場合、内面54aに沿って付着物37が有機半導体膜38の方に落下しても2つの斜面54cにより、Y方向に沿ってガイドされて、付着物37は有機半導体膜38の脇に導かれる。なお、2つの斜面54cは、傾斜角度は同じでもよく、異なっていてもよい。
なお、図27の製造装置10aにおいて、図1に示す製造装置10と同一構成物には、同一符号を付して、その詳細な説明は省略する。
図27に示す製造装置10aは、図1の製造装置10に比して、ステージ14が設けられておらず、基板30の搬送形態が巻出しロール90と巻取りロール92に張架されており、基板30の表面30a側に塗布部材20が配置され、裏面30b側に温度コントローラ16が配置されている点が異なり、それ以外の構成は図1の製造装置10と同様の構成である。
図27の製造装置10aでは、温度コントローラ16で基板30の温度が、予め定められた温度にされて塗布部材20により有機半導体膜38が成膜される。なお、有機半導体膜38の成膜の際には、塗布部材20を有機半導体溶液36(図2参照)に接した状態で移動させてもよく、塗布部材20が有機半導体溶液36(図2参照)に接した状態で基板30を巻取りロール92で巻き取って搬送させてもよい。
塗布ブレードは、例えば、ガラス、石英ガラス、ステンレス鋼等で構成される。
基板30には、例えば、ガラス基板、プラスチック基板が用いられる。
プラスチック基板は、例えば、ポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET)、ポリエチレンナフタレート(PEN)等のポリエステル類、ポリエチレン(PE)、ポリプロピレン(PP)、ポリスチレン、エチレンビニルアセテート(EVA)、シクロオレフィンポリマー(COP)、シクロオレフィンコポリマー(COC)等のポリオレフィン類、ビニル系樹脂、その他、ポリカーボネート(PC)、ポリアミド、ポリイミド、アクリル樹脂、トリアセチルセルロース(TAC)等で構成される。プラスチック基板は、曲げても折れ曲がらないものであり、例えば、ロールツーロール方式で形成する場合に用いられる。
有機半導体の種類は特に制限されず、公知の有機半導体を使用することができる。具体的には、6,13-ビス(トリイソプロピルシリルエチニル)ペンタセン(TIPSペンタセン)、テトラメチルペンタセン、パーフルオロペンタセン等のペンタセン類、TES-ADT(5,11-ビス(トリエチルシリルエチニル)アントラジチオフェン)、diF-TES-ADT(2,8-ジフルオロ-5,11-ビス(トリエチルシリルエチニル)アントラジチオフェン)等のアントラジチオフェン類、DPh-BTBT(2,7-ジフェニル[1]ベンゾチエノ[3,2-b][1]ベンゾチオフェン)、Cn-BTBT(ベンゾチエノベンゾチオフェン)等のベンゾチエノベンゾチオフェン類、C10-DNBDT(3,11-didecyl-dinaphtho[2,3-d:2’,3’-d’]-benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b’]dithiophene)、Cn-DNTT(dinaphtho[2,3-b:2',3'-f]thieno[3,2-b]thiophene)等のジナフトチエノチオフェン類、ペリキサンテノキサンテン等のジオキサアンタントレン類、ルブレン類、C60、PCBM([6,6]-Phenyl-C61-Butyric Acid Methyl Ester)等のフラーレン類、銅フタロシアニン、フッ素化銅フタロシアニン等のフタロシアニン類、P3RT(ポリ(3-アルキルチオフェン))、PQT(ポリ[5,5'-ビス(3-ドデシル-2-チエニル1)-2,2'-ビチオフェン])、P3HT(ポリ(3-ヘキシルチオフェン))等のポリチオフェン類、ポリ[2,5-ビス(3-ドデシルチオフェン-2-イル)チエノ[3,2-b]チオフェン](PBTTT)等のポリチエノチオフェン類等が例示される。
また、溶媒の種類も特に制限されず、メタノール、エタノール等のアルコール系溶媒;アセトン、メチルエチルケトン、メチルイソブチルケトン等のケトン系溶媒;ベンゼン、チオフェン等の芳香族系溶剤、および、それらのハロゲン(塩素、臭素等)置換体(ハロゲン化芳香族系溶媒);テトラヒドロフラン、ジエチルエーテル等のエーテル系溶媒;ジメチルホルムアミド、ジメチルアセトアミド等のアミド系溶媒;ジメチルスルホキシド、スルホラン等のスルホン酸系溶媒等が挙げられる。
本実施例では、有機半導体膜の製造装置を用いて、有機半導体膜で構成される有機半導体層を形成して、薄膜トランジスタを得、薄膜トランジスタ素子特性を評価した。
まず、ガラス基板を洗浄した後、メタルマスクを用いた真空蒸着によりゲートパターンを作製した。密着層として厚さ10nmのCr(クロム)を蒸着した後、Ag(銀)を用いて厚さ40nmのゲート電極を形成した。
次に、厚さ0.5μmのポリイミド絶縁膜をスピンコートにてガラス基板上に塗布し、硬化することで形成した。
次に、ガラス基板をステージ上のホットプレートに設置し、基板温度を100℃にし、移動速度、1mm/分または5mm/分にて、有機半導体溶液36の塗布を行い、有機半導体膜を形成し、有機半導体層を得た。
有機半導体溶液36は、有機半導体にC10-DNBDT(3,11-didecyl-dinaphtho[2,3-d:2’,3’-d’]-benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b’]dithiophene)を用い、溶媒にクロロベンゼンを用い、溶媒濃度を0.05質量%とした。
次に、有機半導体層上に、メタルマスクを用いた真空蒸着法により、厚さ70nmのAu(金)膜をソースドレイン電極として形成した。
比較例には、図28に示す構成のカバー部100を用いた。なお、図28において、図2および図3に示す塗布部材20およびカバー部50と同一構成物には、同一符号を付してその詳細な説明は省略する。
図28に示すカバー部100は、基板30の表面30aと平行な面102bを有する上面部102のX方向の両端に平面部104が設けられている。上面部102のY方向の端部にサイド部105が設けられており、全体で長方体状である。
塗布部材の大きさは、タイプによらず、塗布ブレードの長さを1mmとし、塗布ブレードの幅を5mmとした。また、形成した有機半導体膜は幅が5mm、長さが10cmであった。
薄膜トランジスタ素子特性は、作製した薄膜トランジスタを、半導体パラメータアラナイザ(Agilent製 4156C)を用いて、飽和移動度を測定した。なお、薄膜トランジスタ素子特性のことを下記表1では「TFT特性」と記す。下記表1のTFT特性の欄における「-」は飽和移動度を測定しなかったことを示す。
a 飽和移動度μが1.0cm2/Vs以上、
b 飽和移動度μが0.5cm2/Vs以上1.0cm2/Vs未満
c 飽和移動度μが0.01cm2/Vs以上0.5cm2/Vs未満
d 飽和移動度μが0.01cm2/Vs未満
実施例1、7は、有機半導体膜の形成領域に付着物を導くものであり、良好な薄膜トランジスタ素子特性が得られた。実施例2、3、8、9は、有機半導体膜の脇に付着物を導くものであり、より良好な薄膜トランジスタ素子特性が得られた。
実施例4、10はカバー部に加熱部を有するものであり、付着物の付着を抑制でき、かつ内部の溶媒蒸気圧を高くすることができたため、有機半導体膜の膜質がより良いものとなり、更に良好な薄膜トランジスタ素子特性が得られた。
実施例6、12はカバー部に蒸気供給部を有するものであり、内部の溶媒蒸気圧をより高くでき、溶媒の蒸発速度をより抑えることができたため、有機半導体膜の膜質がより良いものとなり、更に良好な薄膜トランジスタ素子特性が得られた。
比較例1は、液垂が生じ、飽和移動度を測定せず、薄膜トランジスタ素子特性を評価しなかった。
比較例2は、カバー部がなく、液垂は生じないが、設定された移動速度では、膜質が良い有機半導体膜を形成することができず、薄膜トランジスタ素子特性が悪かった。
比較例3は、カバー部がない場合、移動速度を速くすると実施例7~12と比較して薄膜トランジスタ素子特性の低下が見られた。
