AbstractPlasma ion implantation (PII) hydrogenation has been developed for defect passivation in polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin film transistors (TFTs). A high dose rate PII process using a microwave multipolar bucket (MMB) plasma source and a 12.5 kHz pulse generator achieves saturation of device parameter improvement in 5 minutes, which is much shorter than other hydrogenation methods investigated thus far. These results have been achieved in one sixth the implant time of our previous PII experiments and are in good agreement with our process simulation.

AbstractA general relation between the implanted dose and the processing time for plasma immersion ion implantation (PHI) can be established through the dynamic sheath model. In practice, etching and charging effects have to be taken into account in PIII dose estimation.Plasma immersion ion implantation (PII) has been tested in fabrication of semiconductor devices with shallow junctions and in hydrogénation of poly-Si thin film transistors (TFT). PIII doping is more suitable than conventional implantation for such applications because of its high dose rate at lower energy. Since the dose rate in PIII does not depend on the area being treated, the effective current will be higher if a larger implanted area is involved. However, the relation between dose and time is not always straightforward. During PIII processing possible etching and charging will affect the total accumulated doses. This paper presents a model for each which allows a proper compensation to be performed.

AbstractA plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) hydrogenation process using an inductively-coupled plasma (ICP) source is implemented for defect passivation in polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin film transistors (TFT's). Device parameter improvement saturates in 4 minutes, which is considerably shorter than for other reported hydrogenation methods. Stress test indicates that the devices hydrogenated by this novel technique have much better long-term reliability. The hydrogenation effects on two types of trap states are analyzed the current-voltage characteristics of the devices. The densities of deep states and tail states are significantly reduced after short time hydrogenation.
