THIN FILM TRANSITOR AND METHOD OF FABRICATING THEREOF

摘要

A thin film transistor and method of fabricating the same are provided. The thin film transistor includes: a metal catalyst layer formed on a substrate, and a first capping layer and a second capping layer pattern sequentially formed on the metal catalyst layer. The method includes: forming a first capping layer on a metal catalyst layer; forming and patterning a second capping layer on the first capping layer; forming an amorphous silicon layer on the patterned second capping layer; diffusing the metal catalyst; and crystallizing the amorphous silicon layer to form a polysilicon layer. The crystallization catalyst diffuses at a uniform low concentration to control a position of a seed formed of the catalyst such that a channel region in the polysilicon layer is close to a single crystal. Therefore, the characteristics of the thin film transistor device may be improved and uniformed.
