A first layer made of polysilicon is formed on the surface of an underlying substrate. The surface of the first layer is exposed to an environment which etches silicon oxide. If the surface of the first layer is covered with a silicon oxide film, the silicon oxide film is removed. An energy is supplied to the first layer, the energy allowing silicon crystal to re-grow. Solid phase growth of silicon occurs in the first layer to planarize the surface thereof. A polysilicon film having small root mean square of roughness can be formed.

A current path pattern of semiconductor material is formed on the insulating principal surface of a substrate. A gate pattern three-dimensionally crosses the current path pattern in first and second cross areas. A channel region of the current path pattern is defined in an area superposed upon by the gate pattern. A gate insulating film is disposed between the current path pattern and gate pattern. The current path pattern has a lightly doped drain structure on both sides of the channel region in the first cross area, and is not provided with the lightly doped drain structure in regions in contact with the channel region in the second cross area. TFTs are provided having a small off-current and being not necessary for high precision position alignment during manufacture processes even if a gate length is short.

The first switching element (TFTN.sub.ij) is turned ON by a positive or negative potential at the first scan bus line.

A semiconductor device fabrication method by which CMOS transistors with low-resistance metal gate electrodes each having a proper work function can be fabricated. A HfN layer in which nitrogen concentration in an nMOS transistor formation region differs from nitrogen concentration in a pMOS transistor formation region is formed. A MoN layer is formed over the HfN layer and heat treatment is performed. Nitrogen diffuses from the MoN layer into the HfN layer in which nitrogen concentration is low and a work function is set by the HfN layer according to nitrogen concentration which depends on the nitrogen content of the HfN layer before the heat treatment and the amount of nitrogen that diffuses into the HfN layer. On the other hand, nitrogen hardly diffuses from the MoN layer into the HfN layer which originally has a certain nitrogen content, and a work function is set by the HfN layer according to nitrogen concentration in the HfN layer before the heat treatment. By controlling the nitrogen content of each layer and the amount of nitrogen that diffuses, a low-resistance metal gate electrode having a predetermined work function can be formed in each of the nMOS transistor formation region and the pMOS transistor formation region.
