Abstract:
An objective is to provide a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, and a semiconductor device manufactured by using the manufacturing method, in which a laser crystallization method is used that is capable of preventing the formation of grain boundaries in TFT channel formation regions, and is capable of preventing conspicuous drops in TFT mobility, reduction in the ON current, and increases in the OFF current, all due to grain boundaries. Stripe shape or rectangular shape unevenness or opening is formed. Continuous wave laser light is then irradiated to a semiconductor film formed on an insulating film. Note that although it is most preferable to use continuous wave laser light at this point, pulse wave oscillation laser light may also be used.
