Excimer lasing, which can reduce InGaZnO 4 (IGZO) resistance, makes it possible to form source and drain regions in IGZO thin‐film transistors (TFTs). Self‐aligned bottom‐gate IGZO‐TFTs can be fabricated by back‐side excimer laser irradiation, using a gate electrode as a mask. We have investigated the dependence on laser energy density of the TFT characteristics and IGZO performance. These results indicate that this method offers a wide process margin and is compatible with large‐area processing.
