first embodiment

[0026] Referring to FIGS. 2A to 2E, show the cross sectional views illustrating the progression of the process of a method of fabricating a polysilicon (poly-Si) thin film according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

[0027] Referring to FIG. 2A, a substrate 200 is provided, wherein the material of the substrate 200 includes a silicon wafer, a glass substrate or a plastic substrate, for example. An insulating layer 202 is formed over the substrate 200, wherein the insulating layer 202 includes silicon dioxide can be formed by performing a conventional deposition process such as Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition (LPVCD), Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) or sputtering. Thereafter a first a-Si layer 204, which can be formed by performing a conventional process such as LPVCD, PECVD or sputtering, is formed over the insulating layer 202. Further, a cap layer 206 is formed over the first a-Si layer 204, wherein the material of the cap layer 206 includes...

Abstract

A method of fabricating polycrystalline silicon layer of TFT is provided. The method includes sequentially forming an insulating layer, a first amorphous silicon layer, and a cap layer on a substrate. A laser annealing is performed to transform the first amorphous silicon layer to a first polycrystalline silicon layer, wherein at least one hole is formed in the amorphous silicon layer during the laser annealing process. Thereafter, the cap layer is removed. A portion of the insulating layer exposed within the hole is removed to form a second opening. A second amorphous silicon layer is formed over the first polycrystalline silicon layer filling the second opening. Finally a second annealing is performed to transform the second amorphous silicon layer to a second polycrystalline silicon layer.

Description

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application claims the priority benefit of Taiwan application serial no. 92120193, filed Jul. 24, 2003. BACKGROUND OF INVENTION [0002] 1. Field of the Invention [0003] This invention relates to a method of fabricating Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display (TFT-LCD), and more particularly, relates to a method of fabricating a polysilicon film of TFT array in a TFT-LCD thereof. [0004] 2. Description of the Related Art [0005] An ordinary active TFT LCD array is generally categorized into polysilicon TFT and amorphous silicon TFT based materials used for making the TFT LCD, where a polysilicon (poly-Si) TFT being capable of integrating driving circuit thus provides a higher opening rate and lower fabrication cost than a corresponding amorphous silicon (a-Si) TFT. Another reason that polysilicon TFT technology is greatly promoted is that poly-Si TFT significantly reduces device feature size so that high image resolution can be ach...
