Abstract

Polycrystalline silicon thin-film-transistors (Poly-Si TFT's) with a amorphous-$Si_xGe_y$ seed layer have been fabricated to improve the performance of TFT. The dependence of crystal structure and electrical characteristics on the the Ge fractions in $Si_xGe_y$ seed layer were investigated. As a result, the increase of grain size and enhancement of electrical characteristics were obtained from the poly-Si TFT's with amorphous-SixGey seed layer.
