Popis: | Continuous-wave laser crystallization of amorphous Si (a-Si) thin films on a polyimide (PI)-coated glass substrate is studied by using a single scan of a highly uniform top-flat line-beam with a 123 nm SiO2 cap layer and a thin buffer layer at room temperature in air. The total buffer layer thickness is reduced to as thin as 1.55 μm including the heatsink a-Si layer and two SiO2 layers. Damage to the polyimide during the crystallization is successfully suppressed by the heatsink layer. An 88.3% {100} surface fraction is obtained for a 60-nm-thick Si thin film within 15° on polyimide even with a low scan velocity of 15 mm/s. |
