Abstract :
The characteristic deviation of excimer-laser crystallized (ELC) poly-Si thin-film transistors (TFTs) with wide channel is compared between TFTs with channel regions parallel to laser shots (parallel TFTs) and TFTs with channel regions perpendicular to laser shots (perpendicular TFTs). It is found that the characteristic deviation is smaller for perpendicular TFTs. Moreover, layout design of operational amplifiers (OPAMPs) is investigated. It is found that the amplifying characteristic is quite different between the OPAMPs consisting of parallel and perpendicular TFTs. However, the influence from the characteristic difference can be reduced using a feedback circuit.
