Abstract :
We succeeded in fabricating low temperature single grain thin film transistor (LTSG-TFT) devices with excellent characteristics by using the CMP-flattened mu-Czochralski process for 3D integrated circuits application. The LTSG-TFT devices demonstrated high drivability comparable to that of SOI-MOSFETs and an excellent gate delay time of 65psec was obtained despite the use of fully low temperature processing
