摘要:
A semiconductor device is provided including a transistor having excellent ON current characteristics and OFF leakage current characteristics, an electro-optical device holding an electro-optical material using the semiconductor device, an electronic apparatus using the electro-optical device, and a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device. For a transistor, a source region and a drain region are impurity regions heavily doped by a self-aligned method relative to a gate electrode. Parts of the gate insulating film overlapping with boundary regions of the channel formation region adjacent to the drain region and the source region, are thicker than a part of the gate insulating film overlapping with a center part of the channel formation region, relative to the longitudinal direction of the channel.

The invention provides an active matrix substrate which allows the film quality of a MIS transistor to be evaluated easily and accurately, an electrooptical device using such an active matrix substrate, and a method of producing such an active matrix substrate. On an active matrix substrate, a film quality evaluation region with a size of 1 mm square is formed at a location where neither an image display area, a scanning line driving circuit, a data line driving circuit, nor a signal line is formed. A semiconductor film (silicon film) for film quality evaluation is formed in the film quality evaluation region using the same layer as a heavily doped source/drain region of a TFT and doped with the same impurity at the same concentration as the source/drain region. The semiconductor film for film quality evaluation is exposed through an opening formed through interlayer insulating films, so that it is possible to immediately start evaluation of the film equality.

A user logs in to this system as a requester or approver from a predetermined Web page displayed on the client in accordance with the user (employee) ID. A user who has logged in as an approver can also use the article specifying function and approval request function.

In a client-server environment in which a plurality of clients are connected on a network, a manager of a company displays an approval request list window (07-01-00) in which a list of purchase-requested articles is displayed, on a client by a predetermined operation, selects a desired article from the articles displayed in the window, and clicks a software button “approval select” or “rejection select” in accordance with approval or rejection of the selected article. At this time, the article for which approval is selected can be formally ordered.

A high-performance thin-film semiconductor device and a simple fabrication method is provided. After a silicon film is deposited at approximately 530° C. or less and at a deposition rate of at least approximately 6 Å/minute, thermal oxidation is performed. This ensures an easy-and simple fabrication of a high-performance thin-film semiconductor device. A thin-film semiconductor device capable of low-voltage and high-speed drive is provided. The short-channel type of a TFT circuit with an LDD structure reduces a threshold voltage, increases speed, restrains the power consumption and increases a breakdown voltage. The operational speed of the thin-film semiconductor device is further increased by optimizing the maximum impurity concentration of an LDD portion, a source portion a drain portion, as well as optimizing the LDD length and the channel length. A display system is provided using these TFTs having drive signals at or below approximately the TTL level.

The present invention provides a translucent reflection type electro-optic device that can increase a display light amount in both a reflection mode and a transmission mode, an electronic instrument therewith, and a method of fabricating the translucent reflection type electro-optic device. In a TFT array substrate of a reflection type electro-optic device, on a bottom layer side of a light reflection film, a concavity and convexity formation layer that forms a concavity and convexity pattern can be formed with a first photosensitive resin having a refractive index, n1, on a top layer of the concavity and convexity formation layer a top layer insulating film made of a second photosensitive resin having a refractive index, n2 (n1>n2), is formed, and at a position that overlaps with convexities of the concavity and convexity pattern, a light transmission window is formed. Accordingly, an interface between the concavity and convexity formation layer and the top layer insulating film plays a function as a condenser lens that refracts a light incident from a back surface side toward the light transmission window.

In the formation of a thin-film transistor (620) capable of improving the OFF current characteristic, first, all ions (arrow Ion-1) generated from a mixed gas (doping gas) containing 5% PH.sub.3 with the remainder being H.sub.2 gas are implanted to a polycrystalline silicon film (604) at an approximately 80 keV energy level to achieve a P.sup.+ ion dose in the range from 3.times.10.sup.13 /cm.sup.2 to 1.times.10.sup.14 /cm.sup.2 in the process forming low concentration source-drain areas (602, 603). Next, all ions generated from a doping gas of pure hydrogen (arrow Ion-2) are implanted to the low concentration area (604a) at an approximately 20 keV energy level to achieve an H.sup.+ ion dose from 1.times.10.sup.14 /cm.sup.2 to 1.times.10.sup.15 /cm.sup.2. Then, the impurity is activated by heat treatment of the low concentration area (604a) implanted with impurity for approximately one hour at approximately 300.degree. C. in a nitrogen atmosphere.

A polycrystalline or polysilicon film having large grain size, such as 1 &mgr;m to 2 &mgr;m in diameter or greater, is obtained over the methods of the prior art by initially forming a silicon film, which may be comprised of amorphous silicon or micro-crystalline silicon or contains micro-crystal regions in the amorphous phase, at a low temperature via a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method, such as by plasma chemical vapor deposition (PCVD) with silane gas diluted with, for example, hydrogen, argon or helium at a temperature, for example, in the range of room temperature to 600° C. This is followed by solid phase recrystallization of the film to form a polycrystalline film which is conducted at a relatively low temperature in the range of about 550° C. to 650° C. in an inert atmosphere, e.g., N or Ar, for a period of about several hours to 40 or more hours wherein the temperature is gradually increased, e.g., at a temperature rise rate below 20° C./min, preferably about 5° C./min, to a prescribed recrystallization temperature within the range about 550° C. to 650° C. Further, between the step of film formation and the step of solid phase recrystallization, the film may be thermally treated at a relatively low temperature, e.g., over 300° C. and preferably between approximately 400° C. to 500° C. for a period of several minutes, such as 30 minutes, to remove hydrogen from the film prior to solid phase recrystallization.
