Abstract:
An amorphous silicon (a-Si) layer is first formed on a substrate, and the a-Si layer is next patterned to form silicon islands for defining device active regions. Then, a single shot laser beam with long pulse is utilized to irradiate each silicon island, and lateral growth crystallization is induced in each silicon island for transforming a-Si into polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si). Finally, the general subsequent processes for thin film transistor (TFT) fabrication are performed in turn to fabricate poly-Si TFTs.
Abstract:
An amorphous silicon layer and at least a heat-retaining layer are formed on a substrate in turn. Wherein, the heat-retaining layer is controlled to have an anti-reflective thickness for reducing the threshold laser energy to effect the melting of the amorphous silicon layer. Then, a laser irradiation process is performed to transform the amorphous silicon layer into a polycrystalline silicon layer. During the laser irratiation process, a portion of the laser energy transmits the heat-retaining layer to effect the melting of the amorphous silicon layer, and another portion of the laser energy is absorbed by the heat-retaining layer.

Abstract:
An amorphous silicon layer is formed on a substrate, and then a protective layer and a reflective layer are formed in turn to form a film stack on portions of the amorphous silicon layer. The reflective layer is a metal material with reflectivity of laser, and the protective layer is able to prevent metal diffusion. When an excimer laser heats the amorphous silicon layer to crystallize the amorphous silicon, nucleation sites are formed in the amorphous silicon layer under the film stack of the protective layer and the reflective layer. Next, laterally expanding crystallization occurs in the amorphous silicon layer to form poly-silicon having crystal grains with size of micrometers and high grain order.
