The present invention provides a liquid crystal display device capable of preventing the occurrence of dark currents in photodiodes. Thus, the liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal display panel 1 including an active matrix substrate and a backlight 13 for illuminating the liquid crystal display panel.

The photodiode 7 and the light shielding film 8 are provided on a base substrate 5. The light shielding film 8 is formed by a semiconductor or an insulator. Preferably, the photodiode 7 is made of, for example, polycrystalline silicon or continuous grain silicon so as to have a characteristic that its sensitivity increases as the wavelength of light entering the photodiode becomes shorter. The light-shielding film 8 is formed by a silicon film, for example amorphous silicon, that reduces the transmittance of light entering the light shielding film as the wavelength of the light becomes shorter.

A knife edge is disposed at a height corresponding to a section on which a sectional image (light intensity distribution) is picked up in such a manner as to intercept a part of the section of the laser light. The knife edge is irradiated with the laser light, and the sectional image of the laser light is enlarged with an image forming optics, and is picked up by a CCD. While picking up the sectional image in this manner, focusing of the image forming optics is performed. Next, the knife edge is retracted from the optical path of the laser light, the laser light is allowed to enter the CCD via the image forming optics, and the sectional image of the laser light is picked up.

Exact alignment of a recrystallized region, which is to be formed in an amorphous or polycrystalline film, is facilitated. An alignment mark is formed, which is usable in a step of forming an electronic device, such as a thin-film transistor, in the recrystallized region. In addition, in a step of obtaining a large-grain-sized crystal-phase semiconductor from a semiconductor film, a mark structure that is usable as an alignment mark in a subsequent step is formed on the semiconductor film in the same exposure step. Thus, the invention includes a light intensity modulation structure that modulates light and forms a light intensity distribution for crystallization, and a mark forming structure that modulates light and forms a light intensity distribution including a pattern with a predetermined shape, and also forms a mark indicative of a predetermined position on a crystallized region.
摘要:
A first optical modulation element irradiates a non-single-crystal substance with a light beam which is to have a first light intensity distribution on the non-single crystal substance by modulating an intensity of an incident first light beam, thereby melting the substance. A second optical modulation element irradiates the substance with a light beam which is to have a second light intensity distribution on the substance by modulating an intensity of an incident second light beam, thereby melting the substance. An illumination system causes the light beam having the second light intensity distribution to enter the molten part of the substance in a period that the substance is partially molten by irradiation of the light beam having the first light intensity distribution.
