Title:
THIN FILM TRANSISTOR AND ITS MANUFACTURE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3474604
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PURPOSE: To provide a method by which a TFT which has an LDD or offset structure and is reduced in drain current at the turning-off time can be manufactured with accuracy through simple processes.
CONSTITUTION: The TFT has a semiconductor thin film 2 formed of Si, etc., on an insulating substrate 1, gate insulating film 3 formed on the entire surface of the thin film 2, and gate electrode formed on the film 3. The thickness of the film 3 is changed by forming a step section at the point where the film 3 becomes wider than the electrode 4 and LDD areas 5 are formed by implanting ions into the areas 5 by using the electrode and film 3 as masks. Thus a TFT having an LDD structure containing an LDD area 5 and source and drain areas 6 is obtained. When the thin film 2 in the LDD area 5 or in the offset area is made thinner than that in a channel area, a TFT having another structure can be obtained.
