    摘要: The thin film transistor includes a gate insulating layer covering a gate electrode, over a substrate having an insulating surface; a semiconductor layer forming a channel formation region, in which a plurality of crystal regions is included in an amorphous structure; an impurity semiconductor layer imparting one conductivity type which forms a source region and a drain region; and a buffer layer formed from an amorphous semiconductor, which is located between the semiconductor layer and the impurity semiconductor layer. The thin film transistor includes the crystal region which includes minute crystal grains and inverted conical or inverted pyramidal grain each of which grows approximately radially from a position away from an interface between the gate insulating layer and the semiconductor layer toward a direction in which the semiconductor layer is deposited in a region which does not reach the impurity semiconductor layer.

    摘要: The thin film transistor includes, over a substrate having an insulating surface, a gate insulating layer covering a gate electrode, an amorphous semiconductor layer over the gate insulating layer, a semiconductor layer including an impurity element imparting one conductivity type over the amorphous semiconductor layer. The amorphous semiconductor layer comprises an NH radical. Defects of the amorphous semiconductor layer are reduced by cross-linking dangling bonds with the NH radical in the amorphous semiconductor layer.

    摘要: A thin film transistor includes, as a buffer layer, a semiconductor layer which contains nitrogen and includes crystal regions in an amorphous structure between a gate insulating layer and source and drain regions, at least on the source and drain regions side. As compared to a thin film transistor in which an amorphous semiconductor is included in a channel formation region, on-current of a thin film transistor can be increased. In addition, as compared to a thin film transistor in which a microcrystalline semiconductor is included in a channel formation region, off-current of a thin film transistor can be reduced.

    摘要: An island-shaped single crystal semiconductor layer whose top surface has a plane within ±10° from a {211} plane is formed on an insulating surface; a non-single-crystal semiconductor layer is formed in contact with the top surface and a side surface of the single crystal semiconductor layer and on the insulating surface; the non-single-crystal semiconductor layer is irradiated with laser light to melt the non-single-crystal semiconductor layer, and to crystallize the non-single-crystal semiconductor layer formed on the insulating surface with use of the single crystal semiconductor layer as a seed crystal, so that a crystalline semiconductor layer is formed. A semiconductor device having an n-channel transistor and a p-channel transistor formed with use of the crystalline semiconductor layer is provided.
