Abstract: |
A Ni film is formed in contact with a semiconductor film from an amorphous silicon film, a microcrystalline silicon film, etc. The semiconductor film is heated at between 450 and 650° C., moving the Ni, and forming a crystalline semiconductor film. Next, a group 15 element is selectively doped into the crystalline semiconductor film including a region that becomes a source region and a drain region, forming a group 15 element doped region. Heat treatment is performed next at between 500 and 850° C., and the crystallization promoting element remaining in a region to be gettered is absorbed by the group 15 element doped region.

First Claim:
Show all 44 claims |
What is claimed is:
1. A manufacturing method of a semiconductor device, comprising the steps of:
- forming a semiconductor film;
- introducing an element that promotes crystallization into the semiconductor film;
- crystallizing the semiconductor film after introducing the element that promotes crystallization;
- selectively doping a group 15 element into the crystallized semiconductor film;
- selectively doping a group 13 element into at least a part of the crystallized semiconductor film into which the group 15 element is doped;
- heating the semiconductor film after the doping of the group 15 element and after the doping of the group 13 element; and
- patterning the semiconductor film and forming an island-like semiconductor layer,
- wherein the patterning is performed so that the region doped with the group 15 element becomes a source region and a drain region, and the region not doped with the group 15 element becomes either a channel forming region or a channel forming region and a low impurity concentration region.
