摘要
We propose a method to locate a large silicon (Si) crystal grain at a predetermined position on a glass substrate following excimer-laser melting of Si thin-film. The thickness of part of the intermediate insulator of the amorphous-Si (a-Si)/insulator/metal/glass structure was increased. After the irradiation by dual-beam light to both the back and front sides of the structure, a Si crystal grain as large as 4 mu m was located exactly at the center of the predetermined position, for wide range of diameter of the thick portion and irradiated light energy density.
