    Abstract: In a transistor including an oxide semiconductor, hydrogen in the oxide semiconductor leads to degradation of electric characteristics of the transistor. Thus, an object is to provide a semiconductor device having good electrical characteristics. An insulating layer in contact with an oxide semiconductor layer where a channel region is formed is formed by a plasma CVD method using a silicon halide. The insulating layer thus formed has a hydrogen concentration less than 6×1020 atoms/cm3 and a halogen concentration greater than or equal to 1×1020 atoms/cm3; accordingly, hydrogen diffusion into the oxide semiconductor layer can be prevented and hydrogen in the oxide semiconductor layer is inactivated or released from the oxide semiconductor layer by the halogen, whereby a semiconductor device having good electrical characteristics can be provided.

    Abstract: A memory cell including two transistors and one capacitor, which is known as a gain cell, is improved. One electrode of the capacitor is connected to a bit line, and the other electrode thereof is connected to a drain of a write transistor. A source of the write transistor is connected to a source line. As a result, for example, in the case where a stacked capacitor is used, the one electrode of the capacitor can be part of the bit line. Only one specific write transistor is turned on when a potential of the source line and a potential of the write bit line are set; thus, only one memory cell can be rewritten.

    Abstract: A silicon film is crystallized in a predetermined direction by selectively adding a metal element having a catalytic action for crystallizing an amorphous silicon and annealing. In manufacturing TFT using the crystallized silicon film, TFT provided such that the crystallization direction is roughly parallel to a current-flow between a source and a drain, and TFT provided such that the crystallization direction is roughly vertical to a current-flow between a source and a drain are manufactured. Therefore, TFT capable of conducting a high speed operation and TFT having a low leak current are formed on the same substrate.

    Abstract: A chip provided with a layer for separation of a surface region and a hydrophilic surface is manufactured. One or both of a hydrophilic region and a hydrophobic region are formed on a substrate surface where the chip is placed. Liquid is dropped onto the hydrophilic region on the substrate surface, and the chip is placed thereon. The substrate and the chip are heated while being pressure-bonded so that the chip is fixed on the substrate surface, and then the surface region of the chip is separated. By providing a liquid layer in a position where the chip is placed, the chip can be placed on the substrate with high accuracy and thus productivity can be increased.

    Abstract: There is provided a method by which lightly doped drain (LDD) regions can be formed easily and at good yields in source/drain regions in thin film transistors possessing gate electrodes covered with an oxide covering. A lightly doped drain (LDD) region is formed by introducing an impurity into an island-shaped silicon film in a self-aligning manner, with a gate electrode serving as a mask. First, low-concentration impurity regions are formed in the island-shaped silicon film by using rotation-tilt ion implantation to effect ion doping from an oblique direction relative to the substrate. Low-concentration impurity regions are also formed below the gate electrode at this time. After that, an impurity at a high concentration is introduced normally to the substrate, so forming high-concentration impurity regions. In the above process, a low-concentration impurity region remains below the gate electrode and constitutes a lightly doped drain region.
