Polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) Schottky barrier thin film transistors (SB-TFT) are fabricated by erbium silicided source/drain for n-type SB-TFT. High quality poly-Si film were obtained by crystallizing the amorphous Si film with excimer laser annealing (ELA) or solid phase crystallization (SPC) method. The fabricated poly-Si SB-TFTs have a large on/off current ratio with a low leakage current. Moreover, the electrical characteristics of poly-Si SB TFTs are significantly improved by the additional forming gas annealing in 2 % $H_2/N_2$, because the interface trap states at the poly-Si grain boundaries and at the gate oxide/poly-Si channel decreased.

Hot carrier effects as a function of bias stress time and bias stress consitions were syste-matically investigated in p-channel poly-Si TFT s fabricated on the quartz substrate. The device degradation was observed for the negative bias stress, while improvement of electrical characteristic except for subthreshold slope was observed for the positive bias stress. It was found that these results were related to the hot-carrier injection into the gate oxide and interface states at the poly-Si/$SiO_2$interface rather than defects states generation within the poly-Si active layer under bias stress.

This paper describes the characteristics of poly (polycrystalline) 3C-SiC grown on SiOz and AlN substrates, respectively. The crystalline quality of poly 3C-SiC was improved from resulting in decrease of FWHM (full width half maximum) of XRD by increasing the growth temperature. The minimum growth temperature of poly 3C-SiC was $1100^{\circ}C$. The surface chemical composition and the electron mobility of poly 3C-SiC grown on each substrate were investigated by XPS and Hall Effect, respectively. The chemical compositions of surface of poly 3C-SiC films grown on $SiO_2$ and AlN were not different. However, their electron mobilities were $7.65\;cm^2/V.s$ and $14.8\;cm^2/V.s$, respectively. Therefore, since the electron mobility of poly 3C-SiC films grown on AlN buffer layer was two times higher than that of 3C-SiC/$SiO_2$, a AlN film is a suitable material, as buffer layer, for the growth of poly 3C-SiC thin films with excellent properties for M/NEMS applications.

The electrical characteristics of polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin film transistor (TFT) crystallized by excimer laser annealing (ELA) method were evaluated, The polycrystalline silicon thin-film transistor (poly-Si TFT) has higher electric field-effect-mobility and larger drivability than the amorphous silicon TFT. However, to poly-Si TFT's using conventional processes, the temperature must be very high. For this reason, an amorphous silicon film on a buried oxide was crystallized by annealing with a KrF excimer laser (248 nm)to fabricate a poly-Si film at low temperature. Then, High permittivity $HfO_2$ of 20 nm as the gate-insulator was deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) to low temperature process. In addition, the solid phase crystallization (SPC) was compared to the ELA method as a crystallization technique of amorphous-silicon film. As a result, the crystallinity and surface roughness of poly-Si crystallized by ELA method was superior to the SPC method. Also, we obtained excellent device characteristics from the Poly-Si TFT fabricated by the ELA crystallization method.

The surface morphology and structural properties of polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) films made in-situ aluminum induced crystallization at various substrate temperature (300~600) was investigated. Silicon films were deposited by hot-wire chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD), as the catalytic or pyrolytic decomposition of precursor gases SiH4 occurs only on the surface of the heated wire. Aluminum films were deposited by DC magnetron sputtering at room temperature. continuous poly-Si films were achieved at low temperature. from cross-section TEM analyses, It was confirmed that poly-Si above $450^{\circ}C$ was successfully grown on and poly-Si films had (111) preferred orientation. As substrate temperature increases, Si(111)/Si(220) ratio was decreased. The electrical properties of poly-Si film were investigated by Hall effect measurement. Poly-Si film was p-type by Al and resistivity and hall effect mobility was affected by substrate temperature.

Boron diffusion into silicon through poly\ulcorneri-SiO2 was carried out for the diffusion with low concentration using CVD-BN. The result of direct boron diffusion from BN into silicon and that of boron diffusion through SiO2 from BN into silicon was compared with the result of boron diffusion through poly-Si-SiO2 from BN into silicon. In the case of boron diffusion through poly Si-SiO2, the low concentration diffusion was obtained, that is the boron surface concentration in silicon Cs=10**16 Cm**-3, and the glassy compounds were not seen.

Amorphous (a-Si) films were epitaxially crystallized on a very thin large-grained poly-Si seed layer by a silicide-enhanced rapid thermal annealing (SERTA) process. The poly-Si seed layer contained a small amount of nickel silicide which can enhance crystallization of the upper layer of the a-Si film at lower temperature. A 5-nm thick poly-Si seed layer was then prepared by the crystallization of an a-Si film using the vapor-induced crystallization process in a $NiCl_2$ environment. After removing surface oxide on the seed layer, a 45-nm thick a-Si film was deposited on the poly-Si seed layer by hot-wire chemical vapor deposition at $200^{\circ}C$. The epitaxial crystallization of the top a-Si layer was performed by the rapid thermal annealing (RTA) process at $730^{\circ}C$ for 5 min in Ar as an ambient atmosphere. Considering the needle-like grains as well as the crystallization temperature of the top layer as produced by the SERTA process, it was thought that the top a-Si layer was epitaxially crystallized with the help of $NiSi_2$ precipitates that originated from the poly-Si seed layer. The crystallinity of the SERTA processed poly-Si thin films was better than the other crystallization process, due to the high-temperature RTA process. The Ni concentration in the poly-Si film fabricated by the SERTA process was reduced to $1{\times}10^{18}cm^{-3}$. The maximum field-effect mobility and substrate swing of the p-channel poly-Si thin-film transistors (TFTs) using the poly-Si film prepared by the SERTA process were $85cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ and 1.23 V/decade at $V_{ds}=-3V$, respectively. The off current was little increased under reverse bias from $1.0{\times}10^{-11}$ A. Our results showed that the SERTA process is a promising technology for high quality poly-Si film, which enables the fabrication of high mobility TFTs. In addition, it is expected that poly-Si TFTs with low leakage current can be fabricated with more precise experiments.

Poly-Si 활성층이 도핑되지 않은 도는 BF2 이온주입으로 도핑된 poly-Si/SiO2 박막에 존재하는 결함을 효과적으로 감소시키기 위하여 저온 rf 수소플라즈마 처리를 수행하였고, 결합의 변화를 전자상자성공명을 이용하여 조사하엿다. 활성층이 도핑되지 않은 시편과 도핑된 시편에서 모두 관측되었던 Pb center와 E' center가 30분의 수소화처리 결과, Pb center의 경우에 각각 80%(도핑되지 않은 시편)와 76% (되핑된 시편)의 큰 결함 감소효과를 얻었으며 E center는 제거되어 관측되지 않았다. 90분의 처리공정에서는 두 시편에서 모두 감소되었던 Pbcenter의 밀도가 다시 증가하였으며, 제거되었던 E' center가 재생되엇다. 특히 도핑된 시편에서의 Pbcenter의 밀도증가가 더욱 민감하게 나타났다.

A new method to form the gate oxide and recrystllize the polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) active layer simultaneously is proposed and fabricated successfully. During te irradiation of excimer laser, the poly-Si film is recrystallized, while the oxygen ion impurities injected into the amorphous silicon(a-Si) film are activated by laser energy and react with silicon atoms to form SiO2. We investigated the characteristics of the sample fabricated by proposed method using AES, TEM, AFM. The electrical performance of oxide was verified by ramp up voltage method. Our experimental results show that a high quality oxide, a pol-Si film with fine grain, and a smooth and clean interface between oxide and poly-Si film have been successfully obtained by the proposed fabrication method. The interface roughness of oxide/poly-Si fabricated by new method is superior to film by conventional fabrication os that the proposed method may improve the performance of poly-Si TFTs.
