Abstract
Embodiments of methods, apparatuses, devices and systems associated with a thin-film device are disclosed.
Claims99
An apparatus comprising:
- a thin-film device having an active region formed by laser annealing a selected portion of a blanket coated material.
A composition of matter comprising:
- a blanket coated oxide material, and
- a thin-film transistor channel region formed by selectively annealing a selected portion of said blanket coated oxide material.
An apparatus comprising:
- a thin-film transistor comprising a blanket coated oxide material, said blanket coated oxide material comprising a laser annealed active region.
An apparatus comprising:
- a un-patterned oxide material comprising a first selectively annealed portion and a second selectively annealed portion;
- a first transistor comprising a first active region comprising said first selectively annealed portion of said un-patterned oxide material;
- and
- a second transistor comprising a second active region comprising said second selectively annealed portion of said un-patterned oxide material.
1 more element
A method comprising:
- forming an un-patterned material layer;
- and
- selectively annealing a first portion of said un-patterned material layer to form a semiconductive active region
An article comprising:
- a storage media having stored thereon instructions that when executed result in:
- forming an un-patterned oxide layer;
- and
- selectively annealing a first portion of said un-patterned material layer to form a semiconductive active region
1 more element
A system comprising:
- a semiconductor device comprising a plurality of transistors, wherein said plurality of transistors comprises at least a plurality of thin-film transistors comprising an active region comprising a selectively annealed portion of a blanket-coated oxide material.
