摘要
Asymmetric Ni-offset method was proposed to improve the electrical properties of poly-Si thin-film transistors (TFT's) fabricated by metal-induced lateral crystallization (MILC). The MILC/MILC boundary, which was inevitably located within the channel when formed by symmetric Ni-offset, could be successfully extracted from channel region by new asymmetric Ni-offset method. Therefore, thus fabricated TFT's showed lower leakage current and better thermal stability than symmetric Ni-offset TFT's. In addition, the effects of electrical stress and temperature on the electrical properties of symmetric/asymmetric Ni-offset TFT's were investigated.
