Abstract: A circuit array substrate is provided with thin-film transistors 4 and 5 and PIN diode 6 formed on insulation substrate 3. Active layer 11 and photo-electric sensor portion 21 are made of poly-silicon films. Impurities are doped into active layer 11 and photo-electric sensor portion 21 in the same process chamber, if necessary, to make their impurity concentrations different from each other. Thin-film transistors 4 and 5 with prescribed characteristics and PIN diode 6 with improved photosensitivity can be simultaneously, easily manufactured on insulation substrate 3 with a lesser number of processes.

Abstract: In a manufacturing process of a display device, hydrogenation in an I layer of photodiodes D1 and D2 is progressed less than that in a channel portion of a pixel TFT, and a defect density due to dangling bonds not terminated in the I layer of the photodiodes D1 and D2 is made higher than a defect density in the channel portion of the pixel TFT. Thus, while suppressing a leakage current of the pixel TFT, the sensitivity of the photodiodes D1 and D2 to light is improved. Moreover, a gate electrode is provided above an i region of a pin-type optical sensor diode with an insulating film interposed therebetween. Thus, a gate voltage can control a threshold of a bias voltage when a current starts to flow into the optical sensor diode and a leakage current is prevented from flowing into the optical sensor diode.

Particularly, each connection controller includes a thin film transistor having a dual-gate structure, which is connected between one display pixel PX and one memory module.

Abstract: An apparatus for directly connecting an analytical column and a mass spectrometer comprising a fixed member having at least four holes which respectively introduce washing solution, eluate containing a component eluted from the analytical column, desalting solution and eluent for eluting the component, and a movable member rotated with respect to an axis having at least four tubes around the axis and mounting the four trapping columns, whereby the trapping columns are respectively washed, trapped, desalted and eluted in parallel. Furthermore, a common trapping column may be used instead of the four trapping columns by controlling the apparatus with four analytical modes.
