Abstract
In this paper, we investigated the ultra-low temperature(<$150^{\circ}C$) polycrystalline silicon film on plastic substrate application using RF-magnetron sputtering and excimer laser annealing. Amorphous silicon films were deposited using Ar/He mixture gas at $120^{\circ}C$ and in-film argon concentration was less than 2%, which was measured to Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry. At energy density 320mJ/$\textrm{cm}^2$, RMS roughness was 267$\AA$ and UV crystallinity was 62%. The grain size varies from 50nm to 100nm after excimer laser irradiation.
