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.

Poly-Si films have been prepared by solid phase crystallization of LPCVD(low-pressure CVD) amorphous silicon. The crystallinity of poly-Si films has been derived from UV reflectance spectrum and lies in the range between 70% and 80% . From XRD measurement the peak at 28.2$^{\circ}$from (111) plane is dominantly detected in the SPC poly-Si films, The average grain size of poly-Si film is determined by the image of SEM and varies from 4000 $\AA$ to 8000$\AA$. The electrical conductivity of as-deposited amorphous silicon film is about 2.5$\times$10$^{-7}$ ($\Omega$.cm)$^{-1}$ , and 3~4$\times$10$^{-6}$ ($\Omega$.cm)$^{-1}$ of room temperature conductivity is the SPC poly-Si films. The conductivity activation energies are 0.5~0.6 eV or the 500$\AA$-thick poly-Si films.

The charateristics of low temperature poly-Si thin films with different growth condition were investigated and poly-Si TFTs were fabricated on solid phase crystallized (SPC) amorphous silicon films and as-deposited poly-Si films. The performance of devices fabricated on the SPC amorphous silicon films was shown to be superior to that of devices fabricated on as-deposited poly-Si films. It was found that the characteristics of low-temperature poly-Si thin films such as surface roughness, crystal texture and grain size strongly influenced the poly-Si TFT performance.

An electric field was applied to a Mo conductive layer in the sandwiched structure of $glass/SiO_2/Mo/SiO_2/a-Si$ to induce Joule heating in order to generate the intense heat needed to carry out the crystallization of amorphous silicon. Polycrystalline silicon was produced via Joule heating through a solid state transformation. Blanket crystallization was accomplished within the range of millisecond, thus demonstrating the possibility of a new crystallization route for amorphous silicon films. The grain size of JIC poly-Si can be varied from few tens of nanometers to the one having the larger grain size exceeding that of excimer laser crystallized (ELC) poly-Si according to transmission electron microscopy. We report here the blanket crystallization of amorphous silicon films using the $2^{nd}$ generation glass substrate.

Effective methods for monitoring the quality of polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) films are discussed. Raman spectroscopy is typically used to determine crystallinity of poly-Si, but this method has limitations for data gathering on large substrates for mass production of poly-Si TFT backplanes. Spectroscopic ellipsometry is proposed as an alternative for fast and simple estimation of poly-Si quality on large substrates. By using both ellipsometry and Raman spectroscopy, it is possible to determine whether the quality and uniformity of the poly-Si films meet the criteria required for mass production of TFT backplanes for AMOLED panels.

Using intense pulsed ion beam evaporation technique, we have succeeded in the preparation of poly crystalline silicon thin films without impurities on silicon substrate. Good crystallinity and high deposition rate have been achieved without heating the substrate by using lEE. The crystallinity of poly-Si film has been improved with the high density of the ablation plasma. The intense diffraction peaks of poly-Si thin films could be obtained by using the substrate bias system. The crystallinity and the deposition rate of poly-Si thin films were increased by applying (-) bias voltage for the substrate.

Polysilicon this film transistors (poly-Si TFTs) with different channel dimensions were fabricated on low-temperature crystalized amorphous silicon films and on as-deposited polysilicon films. The electrical characteristics of these TFTs were characterized and compared. The performance of the TFTs fabricated on the solid-phase crystalized amophous silicon films ws showon to be superior to that of the TFTs fabricated on the as-deposited polysilicon films. It was found that the performance of poly-Si TFTs depends strongly on the material characteristics of the polysilicon films used as the active layers, but only weakly on the channel dimensions.

We investigated the mechanism of mobility enhancement after the dehydrogenation process in polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin films. The dehydrogenation process was performed by using an in-situ CVD chamber in a $N_2$ ambient or an ex-situ furnace in air ambient. We observed that the dehydrogenated poly-Si in a $N_2$ ambient had a lower oxygen concentration than the dehydrogenated poly-Si annealed in an air ambient. The in-situ dehydrogenation increased the (111) preferred orientation of poly-Si and reduced the oxygen concentration in poly-Si thin films, leading to a reduction of the trap density near the valence band. This phenomenon gave rise to an increase of the field-effect mobility of the poly-Si thin film transistor.

This letter reports the fabrication of polycrystalline silicon thin-film transistors (poly-Si TFT) on flexible plastic substrates using amorphous silicon (a-Si) precursor films by sputter deposition. The a-Si films were deposited with mixture gas of argon and helium to minimize the argon incorporation into the film. The precursor films were then laser crystallized using XeCl excimer laser irradiation and a four-mask-processed poly-Si TFTs were fabricated with fully self-aligned top gate structure.
