Abstract

Polysilicon with large grain size of the order of several ten's of micron were obtained by combining metal induced lateral crystallization (MILC) on amorphous silicon and high temperature treatment. An alternative method for silicon on insulator (SOI) formation is proposed using the same method and individually crystallize the active region of the thin film transistors. The transistors formed on the large enhanced grains has current-voltage characteristics close to transistor fabricated on SIMOX wafer.
