Oxide for semiconductor layer of thin-film transistor, sputtering target, and thin-film transistor

Abstract

This oxide for a semiconductor layer of a thin-film transistor contains Zn, Sn and In, and at least one type of element (X group element) selected from an X group comprising Si, Hf, Ga, Al, Ni, Ge, Ta, W and Nb. The present invention enables a thin-film transistor oxide that achieves high mobility and has excellent stress resistance (negligible threshold voltage shift before and after applying stress) to be provided.
