A process for forming a polycrystalline silicon layer includes the following steps. Firstly, at least one seed is formed on a substrate. Then, an amorphous silicon layer is formed on the substrate and overlies the seed. Then, the amorphous silicon layer is irradiated with a laser to melt the amorphous silicon layer. Afterward, the molten amorphous silicon layer is recrystallized to form a polycrystalline silicon layer.

Abstract:
Analog buffers with a precise gate to source voltage compensation and a small DC offset, by storing an input offset voltage to be used as an output offset voltage to reverse the offset in the input. A first source follower at the input end and a second source follower at the output end are both coupled to a switching circuit, wherein the first follower provides an input offset voltage (e.g., |Vgsp|) based on the input voltage (Vin), the second source follower provides an output voltage (Vout) by compensating Vin transmitted through the analog buffer circuit with an output offset voltage (|Vgsn|), and the switching circuit stores and equalizes the output offset voltage to the input offset voltage (|Vgsp|=|Vgsn|), so to obtain an output Vout that is identical to Vin.
