Title:
LASER IRRADIATING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2003229377
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus using a laser crystallizing method which can raise the efficiency of substrate processing.

Of a semiconductor film, a part left behind on a substrate after patterning is grasped in accordance with a mask. A scanning part of a laser beam is specified so that a part obtained by at least patterning can be crystallized, and a beam spot is hit on the scanning part to partially crystallize the semiconductor film. In the beam spot, a part having low output energy is shielded by a slit. The overall semiconductor film is not irradiated with the laser beam for scanning, and the laser beam is scanned so that at least a necessary and essential part is crystallized to a minimum level. With this arrangement, a time of irradiating the laser beam on a part to be removed by patterning after the semiconductor film is crystallized can be omitted.
