ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes irradiating a region to be crystallized of a non-monocrystalline semiconductor film with laser beam modulated by an optical modulator to have light intensity distribution having a minimum light intensity line or minimum light intensity spot to crystallize the region, and heating the crystallized region by irradiating light from a flash lamp onto the crystallized region.
