2 Outline Introduction Excimer laser annealing Device fabrication on plastic substrates TFTs characterization Conclusions
3 Introduction Low temperature Polysilicon (LTPS) TFT technology has attracted considerable interest over the last 20 years Introduction of excimer laser crystallization has considerably improved the device performances, allowing integration of CMOS circuitry along with active matrix switching elements LTPS TFTs represent key devices for large area electronics Active matrix LCDs Active matrix OLEDs System-on-glass (SOG) and system-on-plastic (SOP)
4 Flexible electronics Display Advertising Automotive Wearable Sensors Biomedical sensors Biomolecular detectors Radio-Frequency ID Tags (RFID) Lower production cost, lightness, transparency, robustness, rollable 3
5 Polymeric substrates Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) Polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) Polycarbonate (PC) Polyethersulfone (PES) Polycyclic Olefin (PCO) Polyarylite (PAR) Polyimide (PI) Base polymer PET PEN PC PES PCO PAR PI CTE (-55 to 85 C) ppm/c %Tr ( nm) > > Yellow Water absorption (%) Young s modulus/gpa Tensile strength/mpa NA Tg C
6 LTPS TFTs issues low temperature process ELC active layer crystallization Excimer Laser Crystallization dielectrics ECR, ICP PECVD ECR 5
7 Excimer laser crystallization Combination in silicon of: strong UV absorption (α>10 6 cm -1 ) small heat diffusion length during laser pulse (~100 nm) Film melting without appreciable heating (<300 C) of the substrate Advantages of ELC process: glass and plastic compatible processing of large area substrates good crystallinity of polysilicon
8 Experimental set-up
9 Excimer laser crystallization partial melting almost complete melting (SLG) complete melting
10 Super Lateral Growth When few crystallites remain unmelted the grains can grow laterally (>1µm) Disadvantages of SLG regime: very narrow process window ( E/E SLG ~2.5%) large non-uniformities Pulse-to-pulse fluctuations and non perfect beam homogenization prevent the opearation in this regime grain size (nm) energy density
11 a-si precursor a-si precursor must contain low concentrations of H to perform excimer laser crystallization Conventional PECVD a-si:h, when deposited at 250 C, contains 8-12 at. % H Planar and X-TEM of a-si:h irradiated at RT (E d =190 mj/cm 2 )
12 Thermal de-hydrogenation Hydrogen can be removed by thermal treatments Two main peaks in the thermal desorption rate Typical treatments: C for a few hours
13 Laser de-hydrogenation It is possible to use laser annealing to de-hydrogenate the a-si:h film Large number of shots Combined with low-t thermal treatments E of final shot (mj/cm 2 ) Thick Si =100nm number of sequential shots

16 Device fabrication spin-coating of PI (HD-Microsistems 2611) onto 3 thermally oxidized Si-wafer and curing at a maximum temperature respectively of T= 350 C and T= 400 C, 8 µm thick PI film PI is mechanically separated from the carrier after device fabrication Easy handling, eliminate the problem of plastic shrinkage, allows the use of standard semiconductor equipment Mean surface roughness 3 nm 9

23 Conclusions A new process for LTPS TFTs fabrication on PI has been presented sample handling and plastic stability Excimer laser annealing was successfully applied for the crystallization of the active layer Better crystallinity was obtained when higher T thermal pre-treatments were performed The devices fabricated at higher temperature exhibited a field effect mobility up to 70 cm 2 /Vs Self-heating related instability of devices on plastic substrates could represent a serious issue and solutions are required The TFTs characteristics are not appreciably influenced by mechanical stress Acknowlegments This work has been partially supported by the project PLAST-Ics funded by the Italian Ministry for Research
