A step of forming a through hole in a semiconductor substrate, or a step of polishing the semiconductor substrate from its back surface requires a very long time and causes decrease of productivity. In addition, when semiconductor substrates are stacked, a semiconductor integrated circuit which is formed of the stack is thick and has poor mechanical flexibility. A release layer is formed over each of a plurality of substrates, layers each having a semiconductor element and an opening for forming a through wiring are formed over each of the release layers. Then, layers each having the semiconductor element are peeled off from the substrates, and then overlapped and stacked, a conductive layer is formed in the opening, and the through wiring is formed; thus, a semiconductor integrated circuit is formed.

A micromachine is generally formed using a semiconductor substrate such as a silicon wafer. One of the objects of the present invention is to realize further reduction in cost by integrating a minute structure and a semiconductor element controlling the minute structure over one insulating surface in one step. A minute structure has a structure in which a first layer formed into a frame-shape are provided over an insulating surface, a space is formed inside the frame, and a second layer is formed to cross over the first layer. Such a minute structure and a thin film transistor can be integrated over one insulating surface in one step.

A microstructure and a semiconductor element which are included in a micromachine have been generally formed in different steps. It is an object to provide a method for manufacturing a micromachine in which a microstructure and a semiconductor element are formed over one insulating substrate. A feature of the invention is a micromachine including a movable layer containing polycrystalline silicon which is thermally crystallized or crystallized by a laser using metal and a space below or above the layer. Such polycrystalline silicon has high strength and is formed on an insulating surface, so that it is used as a microstructure and used for forming a semiconductor element. Accordingly, a semiconductor device in which a microstructure and a semiconductor element are formed over one insulating substrate can be formed.
摘要:
To reduce the number of photomasks which are used to form sacrificial layers for producing spaces of a microstructure, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost. Sacrificial layers are formed by using resist masks which are patterned with the same photomask. Specifically, after forming a first sacrificial layer by etching using a resist mask, a second sacrificial layer is formed by etching using a resist mask which is pattered with same photomask as the resist mask of the first sacrificial layer. By deforming one of the resist masks before etching its corresponding sacrificial layer, for example by increasing or reducing the external dimension of the resist mask, sacrificial layers having different sizes from each other can be formed.
