ABSTRACT:
Nickel is introduced to a peripheral circuit section and a picture element section on an amorphous silicon film to crystallize them. After forming gate electrodes and others, a source, drain and channel are formed by doping impurities, and laser is irradiated to improve the crystallization. After that, electrodes/wires are formed. Thereby an active matrix type liquid crystal display whose thin film transistors (TFT) in the peripheral circuit section are composed of the crystalline silicon film crystal-grown in the direction parallel to the flow of carriers and whose TFTs in the picture element section are composed of the crystalline silicon film crystal-grown in the direction vertical to the flow of carriers can be obtained.
