Abstract:
An electronic panel may include a plurality of sensing electrodes and a plurality of sensing lines. The sensing lines may include a plurality of first group sensing lines and a plurality of second group sensing lines, which are spaced apart from each other in a specific direction and are alternately arranged with respect to each other. Each of the first group sensing lines and the second group sensing lines may include a first pattern layer and a second pattern layer, which are spaced apart from each other with an insulating layer interposed therebetween and are coupled to each other through the insulating layer. Each of the first group sensing lines may include a first pattern layer in a specific region, and each of the second group sensing lines may include a second pattern layer in the specific region.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a thin film transistor (TFT) comprises forming a buffer layer, an amorphous silicon layer, and an insulating layer on a substrate; crystallizing the amorphous silicon layer as a polycrystalline silicon layer; forming a semiconductor layer and a gate insulating layer which have a predetermined shape by simultaneously patterning the polycrystalline silicon layer and the insulating layer; forming a gate electrode including a first portion and a second portion by forming and patterning a metal layer on the gate insulating layer. The first portion is formed on the gate insulating layer and overlaps a channel region of a semiconductor layer, and the second portion contacts the semiconductor layer. A source region and a drain region are formed on the semiconductor layer by doping a region of the semiconductor layer. The region excludes the channel region overlapping the gate electrode and constitutes a region which does not overlap the gate electrode. An interlayer insulating layer is formed on the gate electrode so as to cover the gate insulating layer; contact holes are formed on the interlayer insulating layer and the gate insulating layer so as to expose the source region and the drain region, and simultaneously an opening for exposing the second portion is formed. A source electrode and a drain electrode are formed by patterning a conductive layer on the interlayer insulating layer. The source electrode and the drain electrode are electrically connected to the source region and the drain region via the contact holes, and simultaneously the second portion exposed via the opening is removed.
Abstract:
A method and system for monitoring crystallization of an amorphous silicon (a-Si) thin film, and a method of manufacturing a thin film transistor (TFT) by using the method and system are disclosed. The method of monitoring the crystallization of the a-Si thin film includes: irradiating light from a light source onto a monitoring a-Si thin film to anneal the monitoring a-Si thin film; annealing the monitoring a-Si thin film and concurrently measuring a Raman scattering spectrum of light scattered by the monitoring a-Si thin film at set time intervals; and calculating a crystallization characteristic value of the monitoring a-Si thin film based on the Raman scattering spectrum.
