摘要:
The objective of the invention is to provide a method of fabricating semiconductor device using a laser crystallization method capable of preventing a grain boundary from being formed on the channel-forming region of a TFT and preventing the mobility of the TFT from extremely deteriorating, on-current from decreasing, or off-current from increasing due to a grain boundary and a semiconductor device fabricated by the fabrication method. Striped (banded) or rectangular concave and convex portions are formed. Then, a semiconductor film formed on an insulating film is irradiated with a laser beam diagonally to the longitudinal direction of concave and convex portions on the insulating film.

The present invention is characterized in that by laser beam being slantly incident to the convex lens, an aberration such as astigmatism or the like is occurred, and the shape of the laser beam is made linear on the irradiation surface or in its neighborhood. Since the present invention has a very simple configuration, the optical adjustment is easier, and the device becomes compact in size. Furthermore, since the beam is slantly incident with respect to the irradiated body, the return beam can be prevented.

To suppress an effect of metal contamination caused in manufacturing an SOI substrate. After forming a damaged region by irradiating a semiconductor substrate with hydrogen ions, the semiconductor substrate is bonded to a base substrate. Heat treatment is performed to cleave the semiconductor substrate; thus an SOI substrate is manufactured. Even if metal ions enter the semiconductor substrate together with the hydrogen ions in the step of hydrogen ion irradiation, the effect of metal contamination can be suppressed by the gettering process. Accordingly, the irradiation with hydrogen ions can be performed positively by an ion doping method.

To provide a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device in which the space between semiconductor films transferred at plural locations is narrowed. A first bonding substrate having first projections is attached to a base substrate. Then, the first bonding substrate is separated at the first projections so that first semiconductor films are formed over the base substrate. Next, a second bonding substrate having second projections is attached to the base substrate so that the second projections are placed in regions different from regions where the first semiconductor films are formed. Subsequently, the second bonding substrate is separated at the second projections so that second semiconductor films are formed over the base substrate. In the second bonding substrate, the width of each second projection in a direction (a depth direction) perpendicular to the second bonding substrate is larger than the film thickness of each first semiconductor film formed first.

By laser beam being slantly incident to the diffractive optics, an aberration such as astigmatism or the like is occurred, and the shape of the laser beam is made linear on the irradiation surface or in its neighborhood. Since the device has a very simple configuration, the optical adjustment is easier, and the device becomes compact in size. Furthermore, since the beam is slantly incident with respect to the irradiated body, the return beam can be prevented.

摘要:
To provide a semiconductor device composed of a semiconductor element or a group of semiconductor elements, in which a crystalline semiconductor film having as few grain boundaries as possible in a channel formation region is formed on an insulating surface, which can operate at high speed, which have high current drive performance, and which are less fluctuated between elements. The method of the present invention includes: forming an insulating film with an opening on a substrate having an insulating surface; forming on the insulating film and over the opening an amorphous semiconductor film or a polycrystalline semiconductor film that has randomly-formed grain boundaries; forming a crystalline semiconductor film by melting the semiconductor film, pouring the melted semiconductor into the opening of the insulating film, and crystallizing or re-crystallizing the semiconductor film; and removing the crystalline semiconductor film except a portion of the crystalline semiconductor film that is in the opening to form a gate insulating film, which is in contact with the top face of the crystalline semiconductor film, and a gate electrode.
摘要:
An objective is to provide a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, and a semiconductor device manufactured by using the manufacturing method, in which a laser crystallization method is used that is capable of preventing the formation of grain boundaries in TFT channel formation regions, and is capable of preventing conspicuous drops in TFT mobility, reduction in the ON current, and increases in the OFF current, all due to grain boundaries. Stripe shape or rectangular shape unevenness or opening is formed. Continuous wave laser light is then irradiated to a semiconductor film formed on an insulating film. Note that although it is most preferable to use continuous wave laser light at this point, pulse wave oscillation laser light may also be used.

Depressions and projections with stripe shape or rectangular shape are formed. Continuous wave laser light is then irradiated to a semiconductor film formed on an insulating film along the depressions and projections with stripe shape of the insulating film, or along a longitudinal axis direction or a transverse axis direction of the rectangular shape. Note that although it is most preferable to use continuous wave laser light at this point, pulse wave laser light may also be used.
