摘要:
The invention provides a method for forming thin film transistors including a polycrystalline semiconducting film. The method comprises depositing a first layer of amorphous semiconducting thin film on to a substrate; depositing a second layer of thin film on to the first layer of amorphous semiconducting thin film; patterning the second layer of thin film so that the first layer of amorphous semiconducting thin film is exposed at selected locations; exposing the first and second layers of thin film to a nickel containing compound in either a solution or a vapor phase ; removing the second layer of thin film; and annealing the first layer of amorphous semiconducting thin film at an elevated temperature so the first layer of amorphous semiconducting thin film converts into a polycrystalline semiconducting thin film.

The invention provides a method of forming polycrystalline silicon comprising the steps of: forming a layer of amorphous silicon, forming a layer of metal or metal-containing compound on the layer of amorphous silicon, annealing the layer of amorphous silicon and said layer of metal to form a polycrystalline silicon layer, and irradiating the polycrystalline silicon layer with two different harmonics of a pulsed laser. The pulsed laser is preferably a solid-state laser such as a Nd-Yag laser. One harmonic is chosen such that it is preferentially absorbed by defects in the polycrystalline silicon layer, the other harmonic is absorbed by the bulk polycrystalline silicon.

The present invention provides a method for forming metal-induced laterally crystallized polysilicon in which the metal residue is reduced. A first low temperature lateral crystallization is performed using a metal crystallization-inducing agent such as nickel or a nickel compound. A second lateral crystallization is then carried out which may be either a low-temperature crystallization using metal residue from the first crystallization as the metal crystallization-inducing agent, or may be a high temperature crystallization that does not require a metal.
