    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide the passivation structure of a bottom gate type thin-film transistor capable of reducing damage applied by ion doping and hydrogenation treatment. SOLUTION: A thin-film transistor has bottom gate structure, and has a gate electrode 2, a gate insulating film 3 and an active layer 4a successively superposed on an insulating substrate 1 from a lower section and a source region 6S/a drain region 6D adjacent to the active layer 4a. The active layer 4a mainly comprises unsingle crystal silicon. A silicon dioxide thin-film 8 for passivation is formed while being brought into contact with the active layer 4a and/or the source region 6S/the drain region 6D. A silicon nitride thin-film 9 is further shaped onto the thin-film 8. Damage, etc., by ion doping can be inhibited by directly bringing the silicon dioxide thin-film 8 into contact with the active layer 4a and the source region 6S/the drain region 6D and using the thin-film 8 as a passivation layer.

    Abstract: PURPOSE: To stably radiate the laser beam to a semiconductor thin film crystalizing the semiconductor, and at the same time and activate impurity. CONSTITUTION: First, a semiconductor thin film 2 is formed on an insulating substrate 1 in a film forming process. Next, a series of processings are performed, as the fabrication process, to many element regions specified on a semiconductor thin film 2 to form many thin film transistors. In this case, at the intermediate stage of the series of processings, the laser beam is radiated, as the radiation process for crystalizing the semiconductor thin film 2 under the condition that semiconductor thin film 2 is provided continuously for many element regions. This radiation process is carried out after the impurity implantation to the semiconductor thin film 2 for crystallization of the semiconductor thin film 2 included in the channel part (ch) and simultaneously for activating impurity implanted to the source region S and drain region D.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To control the threshold voltage of a multi-gate semiconductor element arbitrarily after the completion of the element by mutually connecting the drain regions and source regions of adjacent thin-film transistors by an impurity region patterned in a specified shape and controlling the potential of the impurity region. CONSTITUTION:One multi-gate semiconductor element has a structure in which a plurality of TFTs are connected, and formed in the so-called double gate type. A common gate line GL is formed by a pattern so as to cross a pair of a source region S1 and a drain region D1 and a pair of a source region S2 and a drain region D2, thus constituting thin-film transistors TFT1, TFT2. A plurality of the multi-gate semiconductor elements 2 are connected mutually by a common control line CL. An adjusting means 3 Is connected to the control line CL, and the neutral point potential of each multi-gate semiconductor element 2 is controlled, thus adjusting the threshold potential of a plurality of the multi- gate semiconductor elements 2 in common.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To suppress the variations in gate capacitance coupling and to shorten a channel length by suppressing the leak current of TFTs to be used as pixel switching element, thereby stabilizing the threshold voltage. CONSTITUTION:The switching element has a multigate structure formed by serially connecting plural pieces of the thin-film transistors(TFTs) and electrically connecting respective gate electrodes 9 to each other. The TFTs have the LDD structure provided with low-concn. impurity regions 6 of the same conduction type as the conduction type of source regions or drain regions between at least source regions 3 or drain regions 5 and channel regions 2. At least one piece of plural pieces of the low-concn. impurity regions are formed to the length or concn. different from the length or concn. of the others in some cases, by which sufficient on-currents are assured while leak currents are suppressed.
