摘要: In this letter, high-performance low-temperature polysilicon thin-film transistors (TFTs) with double-gate (DG) structure and controlled lateral grain growth have been demonstrated by excimer laser crystallization. Via a proper excimer laser condition, along with the a-Si step height beside the bottom gate, a superlateral growth of Si was formed in the channel length plateau. Therefore, the DG TFTs with lateral silicon grains in the channel regions exhibited better current-voltage characteristics, as compared with the conventional top-gate ones. The proposed DG TFTs (W/L = 1/1 mu m) had the field-effect mobility exceeding 550 cm(2)/V . s, an ON/OFF current ratio that is higher than 10(8), superior short-channel characteristics, and higher current drivability. In addition, the device-to-device uniformity could be improved since grain growth could be artificially controlled by the spatial plateau structure.
