摘要： A method for annealing amorphous silicon film to produce polycrystalline film suitable for thin-film transistors fabricated on glass substrates is provided. The method involves using the selective location of nickel on a predetermined region of silicon to define the pattern of the lateral growth front as the silicon is crystallized. The method defines the resistivity of the silicide formed. The method also defines a specific range of nickel thicknesses to form the nickel silicide. A minimum thickness ensures that a continuous layer of nickel silicide exists on the growth front to promote an isotropic lateral growth front to form a crystalline film having high electron mobility. A maximum thickness limit reduces the risk of nickel silicide enclaves in the crystalline film to degrade the leakage current. Strategic placement of the nickel helps prevent nickel silicide contamination of the transistor channel regions, which degrade the leakage current. A TFT polycrystalline film is also provided made by the above mentioned process of using a defined thickness, silicide resisitivity, and placement of nickel on amorphous silicon to form a silicide which induces a controlled crystallization growth front.

摘要： A method for annealing amorphous silicon film to produce polycrystalline film suitable for thin-film transistors fabricated on glass substrates is provided. The method involves using nickel to help induce the crystallization. The method also uses a high temperature, for a short period of time, to anneal the amorphous silicon. A one-step annealing process implants nickel ions, having a dosage of approximately 1.times.10.sup.15 ions/cm.sup.2, into the silicon before annealing. A two-step annealing process is also provided in which a thin nickel film is put in close proximity to the amorphous silicon film. A first, low temperature, anneal converts a portion of the films to nickel silicide. A second, high temperature, anneal uses the silicide to induce the amorphous film to crystallize. A TFT polycrystalline film made by the above mentioned process of using nickel and, either a one, or two-step high temperature annealing to induce crystallization is also provided.

摘要： The door mirror according to the present invention is a so-called tiltable door mirror for vehicles. The bearing member to bear the shaft of the mirror base which is to be fixed to the vehicle door is formed integrally with the synthetic resin-made mirror housing. The bearing member is formed as a bearing cylinder inside the mirror housing. Being in contact with the bearing surface of the bearing cylinder, the shaft pivotably supports the mirror housing. There is provided between the inner wall of the bearing cylinder and the shaft a U-shaped leaf spring which is in contact at the one end thereof with the inner wall of the bearing cylinder and at the other end with the flat surface formed at a part of the shaft, whereby the friction generated under the action of the leaf spring helps to block the mirror housing from pivoting and thus the mirror housing can be held in the normal position. The shaft has disposed at the end thereof a stopper to prevent the mirror housing from moving axially of the shaft. When a big external force is applied to the mirror housing, the portion of contact between the leaf spring and the shaft moves from the flat surface to the circumferential surface against the force of the leaf spring, so that the mirror housing is pivoted slowly from the normal position to a front or rear position with respect to the normal position. The door mirror of the present invention consists of a reduced number of elements and has a simplified structure. Furthermore, since it can be installed very easily, the manufacturing costs can be reduced very much.

摘要： Improvements in a method for performing a monocrystallizing operation through the application of energy beams upon a non-monocrystalline thin-film of non-crystalline or polycrystalline material formed on a non-crystalline insulating film. The resulting superior monocrystalline thin-film has a crystal direction coinciding with that of the monocrystalline silicon base-plate and is formed on the insulating film even if the insulating film is as thick as 4 .mu.m. The thin-film is sufficiently covered between the active layers of a three-dimensional circuit element on the monocrystalline silicon base plate. '

摘要： A method for rapid thermally annealing a thin amorphous film on a transparent substrate with the use of a radiation absorption film is provided. Unlike a transmissive silicon thin film, or transparent substrate, the metal absorptive film has excellent radiation absorption characteristics. When a radiation absorption layer is added to the substrate it is possible to rapidly anneal an amorphous silicon film with convention IC process radiation lamps. The metal absorption film also acts to conduct the heat to the amorphous silicon. The control provided by the choice of metal material, metal thickness, the oxidation of the metal surface, and the heat and duration of the RTA process provide unique opportunities to control the crystallization process. Polysilicon made by the above-described method has the potential of high electron mobility and low production costs. A thin-film structure for use in a TFT, made through the above-described method, is also provided.

摘要： A vehicle headlamp comprises a reflector having a reflecting parabolic face, and a lens made of synthetic resin and attached to the front end of said reflector. The vehicle headlamp further includes a lamp held by said reflector, at least one filament in said lamp positioned ahead the focussing point of said reflector, and a zone formed on the reflecting face where a means is arranged to reduce the amount of light coming from the filament onto the lens at an upper area thereof, said zone being positioned above the lamp and along an axis vertically passing through an optical axis. Said light reducing means is intended to reflect light either irregularly or diffusedly. The irregularly reflecting means comprises using no undercoat which serves to make the reflecting coat flat and smooth, or making the reflector body rough and uneven and then applying reflecting coat onto this rough and uneven portion with the undercoat interposed therebetween. The diffusedly reflecting means comprises forming slanted faces on the inner face of said reflector body and applying the reflecting coat onto these slanted faces with the undercoat interposed therebetween.
