  • 在后摩尔时代,氧化物薄膜晶体管,特别是以非晶铟镓锌氧化物为代表的宽禁带半导体晶体管,因其低温制备工艺、与后道工艺的良好兼容性以及优异的电学性能而备受关注,被广泛应用于显示、单片三维集成以及存储等领域。本文聚焦于非晶铟镓锌氧化物薄膜晶体管的尺寸微缩技术,概述了平面与垂直器件结构中沟道长度微缩、接触长度微缩等研究进展,并对其在单片三维集成、及高密度存储等领域的应用前景进行了总结和展望。

    In the post-Moore era, oxide thin-film transistors (TFTs), particularly wide-bandgap semiconductor transistors represented by amorphous indium gallium zinc oxide (a-IGZO), have attracted significant attention due to their low-temperature fabrication process, excellent compatibility with back-end-of-line (BEOL) processes, and outstanding electrical performance. These devices have been widely applied in fields such as displays, monolithic three-dimensional (3D) integration, and memory technologies. This article focuses on the dimensional scaling technology of a-IGZO TFTs, especially two key dimensions—channel length (Lch) and contact length (LC)—to enhance density and performance. For channel scaling, architectural innovations such as dual-gate structures have been instrumental in mitigating short-channel effects, enabling devices with Lch scaled down to 30 nm to achieve a near-ideal subthreshold swing of 63.4 mV/decade and a high transconductance of 559 μS/μm. Concurrently, vertical transistor designs, like channel-all-around architectures, have successfully pushed Lch to 50 nm while maintaining excellent gate control and leakage currents below 10-17 A/μm. Regarding contact scaling, interface engineering and optimized deposition processes have reduced the contact length to 20-40 nm, achieving a minimal contact pitch of 80 nm and a low specific contact resistivity. These developments highlight the strong potential of scaled a-IGZO TFTs. This article also summarizes and prospects their application potential in monolithic 3D integration and high-density memory fields.
