Abstract :
Poly-Si thin-film transistors (TFTs) fabricated with a maximum processing temperature of 450°C by means of laser-induced crystallization of a-Si are discussed. These devices show high mobilities (50 cm2/V-s), low threshold voltages (2 V), low off current (10-12 A), and high reliability. A 3.5-in.-diagonal full-color liquid-crystal display addressed by these poly-Si TFTs is presented
