Abstract

High performance p-ch poly-Si TFTs with excellent stability were developed. By using a frequency doubled DPSS CW laser, the a-Si on glass could be crystallized into one dimensional single crystalline silicon named as a sequential lateral crystallization (SLC) region. We fabricated p-ch TFTs on SLC region and the typical characteristic values of the TFTs were $u_{fe}$ = 180 $cm^2$/Vs, $V_{th}$ = -3 V, S.S. = 0.5 V/dec, and $I_{off}$ = 1 pA/um@ $V_d$ = -10V. It is found that the TFTs are very stable after bias stresses such as negative and positive gate biases, hot carrier bias and high current bias. These results indicate that the poly-Si in SLC region is suitable for system on glass (SOG) application.
