Integrated circuit including single crystal semiconductor layer on non-crystalline layer

摘要

A method of forming a single crystal semiconductor film on a non-crystalline surface is described. In accordance with this method, a template layer incorporating an ordered array of nucleation sites is deposited on the non-crystalline surface, and the single crystal semiconductor film is formed on the non-crystalline surface from the ordered array of nucleation sites. An integrated circuit incorporating one or more single crystal semiconductor layers formed by this method also is described.
