摘要:
A solution containing impurity ions is applied onto the surface of a silicon film to form a solution layer, followed by drying into a compound layer containing the impurities. Heat treatment is performed by irradiation with an energy beam so as to diffuse the impurity atoms in the compound layer toward the silicon film into a source region and a drain region. Subsequently, the compound layer is removed.

A method for crystallizing a semiconductor thin film is provided. The method includes continuously irradiating an energy beam on a semiconductor thin film while scanning at a given speed, wherein the semiconductor thin film is completely melted and the irradiation conditions of the energy beam are so set that the semiconductor thin film at a central position of the energy beam is finally crystallized in association with the scanning with the energy beam.

The invention provides a functional device having no cracks and capable of delivering good functional characteristics and a method of manufacturing the same. A functional layer (14) is formed by crystallizing an amorphous silicon layer as a precursor layer by laser beam irradiation. A laser beam irradiation conducts heat up to a substrate (11) to cause it to try to expand; a stress to be produced by the difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the substrate (11) and the functional layer (14) is shut off by an organic polymer layer (12) lower in thermal expansion coefficient than the substrate (11), thereby causing no cracks nor separations in the functional layer (14). The organic polymer layer (12) is preferably made of an acrylic resin, an epoxy resin, or a polymer material containing these that is deformed by an optical or thermal process to undergo a three-dimensional condensation polymerization, for higher compactness and hardness. Inserting a metal layer and an inorganic heat resistant layer between the substrate (11) and the functional layer (14) will permit a more powerful laser irradiation.

An optical energy conversion apparatus 10 includes a first impurity doped semiconductor layer 5, formed on a substrate, and which is of a semiconductor material admixed with a first impurity, an optically active layer 6, formed on the first impurity doped semiconductor layer 5, and which is of a hydrogen-containing amorphous semiconductor material, and a second impurity doped semiconductor layer 7, admixed with a second impurity and formed on the optically active semiconductor layer 6. The second impurity doped semiconductor layer is of a polycrystallized semiconductor material lower in hydrogen concentration than the material of the optically active semiconductor layer 6. The average crystal grain size in the depth-wise direction in an interfacing structure between the optically active semiconductor layer 6 and the second impurity doped semiconductor layer 7 is decreased stepwise in a direction proceeding from the surface of the second impurity doped semiconductor layer towards the substrate 1. By controlling the hydrogen concentration of the second impurity doped semiconductor layer 7, the number of dangling bonds in the second impurity doped semiconductor layer 7 is significantly decreased to exhibit superior crystallinity to improve the conversion efficiency of the apparatus 10.
摘要:
A lower concentration impurity diffusion region can be formed under excellent control, even when a low heat-resistant substrate is used. At the time of doping a semiconductor layer, a mask such as sidewalls (24) where an energy beam passes through, is formed on a part of a surface of a semiconductor layer (21), dopant ions (25) are adsorbed on the surface of the semiconductor layer (21) except a region in which the mask is formed, and an energy beam EBL is irradiated onto the semiconductor layer (21) having the formed mask to introduce the dopant ions into the semiconductor layer (21). In the lower part of the mask such sidewalls (24), diffusion in transverse direction occurs and lower concentration impurity diffusion regions can be formed in excellent reproducibility under excellent control.

摘要:
A recording and reproducing apparatus has a recording and/or reading head having a tip for recording and/or reproducing information on and/or from a recording medium. Information is recorded and/or erased by way of a polarization reversal or transport of electric charges in a predetermined area of the recording medium in response to application of a pulse voltage from the head. The information recorded in the predetermined area is detected as a change in the electric charges or an electrostatic capacitance or a surface potential or their differential in the predetermined area for reproducing the information.
