Method for manufacturing semiconductor device
First Claim
1. A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising the steps of:
- forming a gate electrode over a substrate;
forming a gate insulating film over the gate electrode;
forming an oxide semiconductor film overlapping with the gate electrode with the gate insulating film interposed therebetween;
performing first heat treatment on the oxide semiconductor film, the first heat treatment including heating in an inert atmosphere and cooling in an oxygen atmosphere;
forming a source electrode and a drain electrode over the oxide semiconductor film;
forming a metal oxide film over the source electrode and the drain electrode, the metal oxide film being in contact with the oxide semiconductor film;
introducing oxygen to at least one of the oxide semiconductor film, the metal oxide film, and an interface between the oxide semiconductor film and the metal oxide film;
forming an insulating film over the metal oxide film after the step of introducing oxygen; and
performing second heat treatment after forming the insulating film.

Abstract
In a transistor including an oxide semiconductor film, a metal oxide film for preventing electrification which is in contact with the oxide semiconductor film and covers a source electrode and a drain electrode is formed. Then, oxygen is introduced (added) to the oxide semiconductor film through the metal oxide film and heat treatment is performed. Through these steps of oxygen introduction and heat treatment, impurities such as hydrogen, moisture, a hydroxyl group, or hydride are intentionally removed from the oxide semiconductor film, so that the oxide semiconductor film is highly purified. Further, by providing the metal oxide film, generation of a parasitic channel on a back channel side of the oxide semiconductor film can be prevented in the transistor.
