Title:
MANUFACTURE OF SEMICONDUCTOR THIN FILM
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3422290
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To create at a high throughput on a large substrate a highly uniform semiconductor thin film having a high electron-mobility, by projecting the double pulses of a laser beam on the non-single-crystal semiconductor thin film, and by setting energy density in each pulse within the threshold of its fine- crystallization energy density caused by the projection of a pulse laser beam.
SOLUTION: After depositing as a cover film a silicon oxide film 2 on a glass substrate 1 by a plasma chemical vapor deposition method, an a-Si film 3 is deposited thereon. Then, a XeCl laser beam 50 having predetermined dimensions is projected on the a-Si film 3 to set the threshold of its fine- crystallization energy-density to, e.g. 470 mJ/cm2. In this case, by synchronizing two light sources 4, 5 with each other through a controller 6, the double pulses of a laser beam are projected through an optical system 7 on the a-Si film 3 of the glass substrate 1 provided in a chamber 8. As the projective conditions of the double pulses of the laser beam, the energy densities of first and second laser beams are set respectively, e.g. to 400 mJ/cm2 and 240 mJ/cm2 to make them not larger than the threshold of the fine-crystallization energy-density of the a-Si thin film 3.
