Fluorinated-silicate-glass (FSG) was combined with Ni-metalinduced lateral crystallization (NILC) polycrystalline silicon thinfilm transistors (poly-Si TFTs). It was found that the electrical performances were improved because the trap-state density was decreased by fluorine-ion passivation. Moreover, FSG-NILC-TFTs possess high immunity against the hot-carrier stress and, thereby, exhibit better reliability.
