20090026452 | Liquid crystal display device and electronic device provided with the same - A liquid crystal display device provided with a thin film transistor with excellent electrical characteristics and reduced off current, for which increase in manufacturing costs can be suppressed while suppressing reduction in yield. A thin film transistor includes a gate electrode provided over a substrate; a gate insulating film provided to cover the substrate and the gate electrode; a first island-shaped semiconductor layer and a second island-shaped semiconductor layer each formed as a stack of a microcrystalline semiconductor layer and a buffer layer with a depression on an upper surface thereof, over the gate electrode with the gate insulating film interposed therebetween; a conductive semiconductor layer; and a conductive layer provided on the conductive semiconductor layer. The conductive semiconductor layer is provided between the first island-shaped semiconductor layer and the second island-shaped semiconductor layer in contact with the gate insulating film. | 01-29-2009 |
20090137095 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SEMICONDUCTOR SUBSTRATE AND SEMICONDUCTOR SUBSTRATE MANUFACTURING APPARATUS - An object is to provide a uniform semiconductor substrate in which defective bonding is reduced. A further object is to manufacture the semiconductor substrate with a high yield. A first substrate and a second substrate are bonded in a reduced-pressure atmosphere by placing the first substrate at a certain region surrounded by an airtight holding mechanism provided over a support to surround the certain region of a surface of the support; placing the second substrate so as to come to be in contact with the airtight holding mechanism to ensure airtightness of a space surrounded by the support, the airtight holding mechanism, and the second substrate; evacuating the space whose airtightness is secured, thereby reducing an pressure in the space; disposing the second substrate in close contact with the first substrate using difference between the pressure in the space and outside atmpspheric pressure; and performing heat treatment. | 05-28-2009 |
