  • Publication number: 20250351463
    Abstract: A thin film transistor and a preparation method therefor, a memory, and a display. The thin film transistor comprises: a first source/drain layer (1), a first insulating layer (2), a second source/drain layer (3) and a second insulating layer (4) which are sequentially stacked; and a gate (6) and a channel layer (5) surrounding the gate (6), which are located in the second insulating layer (4), the second source/drain layer (3) and the first insulating layer (2). The channel layer (5) is in contact with the first source/drain layer (1), the first insulating layer (2), the second source/drain layer (3) and the second insulating layer (4). The thin film transistor is a CAA architecture of an annular channel surrounding the gate (6). Moreover, the leakage current of the gate (6) and the parasitic capacitance of the thin film transistor can be reduced by adding the second insulating layer (4) above the second source/drain layer (3).
