Abstract: Disclosed is an oxide for a semiconductor layer of a thin film transistor, which, when used in a thin film transistor that includes an oxide semiconductor in the semiconductor layer, imparts good switching characteristics and stress resistance to the transistor. Specifically disclosed is an oxide for a semiconductor layer of a thin film transistor, which is used for a semiconductor layer of a thin film transistor and contains at least one element selected from the group consisting of In, Ga and Zn and at least one element selected from the group X consisting of Al, Si, Ni, Ge, Sn, Hf, Ta and W.

Abstract: The present invention provides a display device which is provided with a Cu alloy film having high adhesion to an oxygen-containing insulator layer and a low electrical resistivity. The present invention relates to a Cu alloy film for a display device, said film having a stacked structure including a first layer (Y) composed of a Cu alloy containing, in total, 1.2-20 atm % of at least one element selected from among a group composed of Zn, Ni, Ti, Al, Mg, Ca, W, Nb and Mn, and a second layer (X) composed of pure Cu or a Cu alloy having Cu as a main component and an electrical resistivity lower than that of the first layer (Y). A part of or the whole first layer (Y) is directly in contact with an oxygen-containing insulator layer (27), and in the case where the first layer (Y) contains Zn or Ni, the thickness of the first layer (Y) is 10-100 nm, and in the case where the first layer (Y) does not contain Zn and Ni, the thickness of the first layer (Y) is 12-100 nm.

Abstract: Disclosed is an oxide for a semiconductor layer of a thin-film transistor, said oxide being excellent in the switching characteristics of a thin-film transistor, specifically enabling favorable characteristics to be stably obtained even in a region of which the ZnO concentration is high and even after forming a passivation layer and after applying stress. The oxide is used in a semiconductor layer of a thin-film transistor, and the aforementioned oxide contains Zn and Sn, and further contains at least one element selected from group X consisting of Al, Hf, Ta, Ti, Nb, Mg, Ga, and the rare-earth elements.

Abstract: Disclosed is a wiring structure that attains excellent low-contact resistance even if eliminating a barrier metal layer that normally is disposed between a Cu alloy wiring film and a semiconductor layer, and wiring structure with excellent adhesion. The wiring structure is provided with a semiconductor layer, and a Cu alloy layer, on a substrate in this order from the substrate side. A laminated structure is included between the semiconductor layer, and the Cu alloy layer. The laminated structure is composed of a (N, C, F, O) layer which contains at least one element selected from among a group composed of nitrogen, carbon, fluorine, and oxygen, and a Cu—Si diffusion layer which includes Cu and Si, in this order from the substrate side. At least one element selected from among the group composed of nitrogen, carbon, fluorine, and oxygen that composes the (N, C, F, O) layer is bonded to Si in the semiconductor layer.
