Method of forming low resistance contacts at the junction between
regions having different conductivity types
摘要:
A thin film transistor structure having a first and a second polycrystalline silicon layer of different conductivity types (P and N) has a high resistance contact at the resultant P-N junction. This contact resistance is reduced by forming TiSi.sub.2 (titanium disilicide) or other refractory metal silicides such as cobalt or molybdenum in specific regions, namely the P-N junction contact. Titanium disilicide consumes the portion of the second polycrystalline silicon layer in the P-N contact junction and at the same time consumes a small portion of the underlying first polycrystalline silicon layer, such that the high resistance P-N junction now no longer exists.
