Abstract
In a process for manufacturing a thin film transistor, a first polysilicon layer is formed on a substrate and a silicon dioxide layer is formed on a region of the first polysilicon layer leaving exposed regions of that layer. A second polysilicon layer is formed on the silicon dioxide layer and aligned therewith. Regions of a selectively-grown electrically-conductive film are deposited on the second polysilicon layer and on the exposed regions of the first polysilicon layer, the film being such that it wil not grow on the edges of the silicon dioxide layer, but will grow on the exposed polysilicon to form gate, source and drain electrodes. The edges of the silicon dioxide layer therefore remain uncoated. The film may be formed of tungsten or may be formed, for example, by selective silicon epitaxy, phosphorus doped.
