  • Patent number: 6689647
    Abstract: A method for crystallizing an amorphous silicon thin-film is provided, in which amorphous silicon thin-films on a large-area glass substrate for use in a TFT-LCD (TFT-Liquid Crystal Display) are crystallized uniformly and quickly by a scanning method using a linear lamp to prevent deforming of the glass substrate. The crystallization method includes the steps of forming an amorphous silicon thin-film on a glass substrate, and illuminating a linear light beam on the amorphous silicon thin-film from the upper portion of the glass substrate according to a scanning method. The crystallization method is applied to a polycrystalline silicon thin-film transistor manufacturing method including the steps of forming an amorphous silicon thin-film on a glass substrate, and crystallizing the amorphous silicon of the thin-film transistor according to a scanning method using a linear light beam.

  • Patent number: 6294135
    Abstract: A small-scale scrapped tire boiler system for heating a small-scale facility using heat generated by burning scrapped tires. The system includes a scrapped tire burner furnace, a heat exchanger for heating a cool heat transfer medium from the facility by the combustion gas from the furnace and supplying the heated medium to the facility, and an exhaust gas purifier for purifying sulfurous acid gas and carbon dust contained in exhaust gas. The purifier includes an exhaust gas tower having a vertical path to discharge the combustion gas, a water sprayer for spraying water from the upper side of the tower so that the sulfurous acid gas is made to melt to water and the carbon dust is made to adsorb to fall down, a neutralizer for precipitating sulfurous acid gas components into alkali salts in a sulfurous acid aqueous solution to thereby neutralize water, and a tank containing the solution and water.

  • Patent number: 5817532
    Abstract: There are disclosed a ferroelectric thin film device and a method for making the same. The ferroelectric thin film device includes a bottom electrode formed on a substrate, a ferroelectric thin film formed on the bottom electrode to contain a predetermined amount of Ta and have grains arranged in a regularly repeating pattern, and a top electrode formed on the ferroelectric thin film. The method for making a ferroelectric thin film includes the steps of forming a bottom electrode on a substrate, forming on the bottom electrode a Ta doped ferroelectric thin film, forming a top electrode on the ferroelectric thin film at regular intervals, and performing a rapid thermal annealing process on the ferroelectric thin film, using a radiant heating device, to induce crystallization.
