ABSTRACT:
In an apparatus for forming a single crystal semiconductor layer from a non-single-crystalline semiconductor material by scanning a region of the material with an electron beam, a first pair of deflection electrodes and a second pair of deflection electrodes, both pairs being provided in the path of the electron beam. A deflection signal generated by modifying the amplitude of a high-frequency fundamental wave signal with a modulation wave signal having a frequency lower than that of the high-frequency fundamental wave signal is supplied to the deflection electrodes of the first pair. The electrodes rapidly deflect the electron beam in a first direction, while changing the range of deflecting the beam, thereby forming a locus of the beam spot on the sample. Simultaneously, the deflection electrodes of the second pair deflect the beam in a second direction, thereby annealing a region of the material, to form a single crystal semiconductor layer.
