The speed of the laser scanned by the scanning means such as a galvanometer mirror or a polygon mirror is not constant in the center portion and in the end portion of the scanning width. As a result, the object, for example an amorphous semiconductor film, is irradiated with the excessive energy and therefore there is a risk that the amorphous semiconductor film is peeled. In the present invention, in the case where the laser spot of the energy beam output continuously on the irradiated object is scanned by moving it back and forth with the use of the scanning means or the like, the beam is irradiated to the outside of the element-forming region when the scanning speed of the spot is not the predetermined value, for example when the speed is not constant, and accelerates, decelerates, or is zero, for example in the positions where the scanning direction changes, or where the scanning starts or ends.

The method includes: over a substrate sequentially forming a first insulating film, a first conductive film, a second insulating film, a semiconductor film, an impurity semiconductor film, and a second conductive film; forming a resist mask thereover using a first photomask; performing a first etching to allow the side surface of the layers including an upper portion of the first insulating film, the first conductive film, the second insulating film, the semiconductor film, the impurity semiconductor film, and the second conductive film to be coplanar to a side surface of the resist mask; and performing a second etching to selectively etch the first conductive film to allow the side surface of the first conductive film is located inside the side surface of the layers.
摘要:
A first layer is formed over a substrate, a light absorbing layer is formed over the first layer, and a layer having a light-transmitting property is formed over the light absorbing layer. The light absorbing layer is selectively irradiated with a laser beam via the layer having a light-transmitting property. When the light absorbing layer absorbs energy of the laser beam, due to emission of gas that is within the light absorbing layer, or sublimation, evaporation, or the like of the light absorbing layer, a part of the light absorbing layer and a part of the layer having a light-transmitting property in contact with the light absorbing layer are removed. By using the remaining part of the layer having a light-transmitting property or the remaining part of the light absorbing layer as a mask and etching the first layer, the first layer can be processed into a desired shape.
