A mask and its application in sequential lateral solidification (SLS) crystallization of amorphous silicon. The mask includes a light absorptive portion for blocking a laser beam and first and second light-transmitting portions each having an echelon formation with a tier-shaped outline. The first and second light-transmitting portions pass a laser beam and include a plurality of adjacent rectangular-shaped patterns that comprise the echelon formation. The second light-transmitting portion is located between the first light-transmitting portions and has fewer shaped-shaped patterns than the first light-transmitting portions. In operation, the mask moves transversely by no more than the width of the shaped-shaped patterns as a laser performs SLS crystallization. The first and second light-transmitting portions control grain growth such that high quality polycrystalline silicon is formed.
