  • Patent number: 8330163
    Abstract: An active device array mother substrate including a substrate, pixel arrays, and a polymer-stabilized alignment curing circuit is provided. The substrate has panel regions, a circuit region, a first cutting line, and a second cutting line. The first cutting line is disposed on the circuit region between an edge of the substrate and the second cutting line. The active devices of the pixel arrays have a semiconductor layer. The polymer-stabilized alignment curing circuit disposed on the circuit region includes curing pads disposed between the edge of the substrate and the first cutting line and curing lines having an upper conductive layer connected to the corresponding curing pads and the corresponding pixel array. The upper conductive layer is in the same layer as the source/drain conductor. Therefore, the curing lines are capable of preventing problems such as peeling, so as to keep the polymer-stabilized alignment curing circuit operating normally.

  • Patent number: 8153495
    Abstract: A thin film transistor (TFT) formed on a substrate includes a polycrystalline film, a gate insulator, a hydrogen-supplying film and a gate electrode. The polycrystalline film is formed on the substrate. Two sides of the polycrystalline film serve as the source and the drain of the semiconductor device, and the central region of the polycrystalline layer serves as the channel. The gate insulator is formed on the polycrystalline film, then the polycrystalline film is ions implanted, and the hydrogen-supplying film is formed on the gate insulator. The gate electrode is formed on the hydrogen-supplying film above the channel. The hydrogen-supplying film supplies hydrogen to the polycrystalline film, especially to the channel, so as to transform the unsaturated bonds into hydrogen bonds in the channel for avoiding the unsaturated bonds to degrade the charge carrier efficiency of the channel.
