Abstract: In the fabrication of a CMOS-TFT, non-selectively doping (for both of p- and n-type TFTs) and selectively doping (only for the n-type TFT) with p-type impurities (B: boron) are successively performed at very low concentrations to control the threshold voltages (Vthp and Vthn). More specifically, the Id-Vg characteristics of the p- and n-type TFTs are initially negatively shifted. In this state, non-selectively doping is performed positively to shift the p- and n-type TFTs first to adjust the Vthp to a specified value. Selectively doping is then performed positively to shift only the n-type TFT to adjust the Vthn to a specified value. The threshold voltages of the p- and n-type TFTs constructing the CMOS-TFT can be independently and efficiently (with minimum photolithography) controlled with high accuracy.

At a dispense-injection step, in the case of a two-shot process for fabricating two liquid crystal display panels from a single glass substrate 80, the heights of support posts on two CF substrates 82 (let us call them surfaces A and B) having columnar spacers formed thereon are measured at a plurality of points (e.g., five locations indicated by numerals 1 through 5) on each of the surfaces A and B using a laser displacement gauge and an average value of the height is obtained. The support post height of the columnar spacers is thus measured in advance to control the quantity of dispensed liquid crystals based on the measured value.

Moreover, as to an Lth scan line, for each of the groups, a signal line to which a video signal having its polarity inverted between an L-1th scan line and the Lth scan line is supplied is selected first and a signal line to which a video signal having its polarity not inverted is supplied is selected later. Thus, a video signal in which a polarity is not inverted and no potential change occurs is supplied to the signal line later.
