Liquid crystal display device with fringe field switching mode

A system for display images comprising a thin film transistor array substrate is disclosed. The system for display images comprises a substrate having a pixel area, a source/drain region overlying the substrate within an active layer in the pixel area, a bottom electrode overlying the substrate in the pixel area, a top electrode overlying the bottom electrode, a first dielectric layer disposed on the active layer, a second dielectric layer disposed on the first dielectric layer, wherein the second dielectric layer is disposed between the bottom electrode and the top electrode and a gate disposed overlying the active layer, wherein the first and second dielectric layers are interposed between the gate and the active layer.

System for display images and fabrication method thereof

The present invention includes methods to crystallize amorphous silicon. A structure including a conductive film with at least one conductive layer in thermal contact with an amorphous silicon (a-Si) layer to be crystallized is exposed to an alternating or varying magnetic field. The conductive film is more easily heated by the alternative or varying magnetic field, which, in-turn, heats the a-Si film and crystallizes it while keeping the substrate at a low enough temperature to avoid damage to or bending of the substrate. The method can be applied to the fabrication of many semiconductor devices, including thin film transistors and solar cells.

Methods of fabricating crystalline silicon, thin film transistors, and solar cells

A method by which solid phase crystallization (SPC) thermal budget for crystallizing an undoped (or a lightly doped) amorphous Si (a-Si) is significantly reduced. First, a composite layer structure consisting of an undoped (or a lightly doped) a-Si layer and a heavily doped (either p-type or n-type) a-Si layer is formed and it is subsequently annealed at an elevated temperature. The solid phase crystallization starts from the heavily doped amorphous silicon layer at a substantially reduced thermal budget and proceeds to crystallize the undoped amorphous silicon layer in contact with the heavily doped film at reduced thermal budget. The method can be applied to form poly silicon thin film transistor at reduced thermal budgets.
