A novel technology for manufacturing high‐performance hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a‐Si:H) TFT is developed in this work. In the bottom gate light‐shied a‐Si:H TFT structure, the side edge of a‐Si:H island is capped with extra deposition of heavily phosphorous‐doped a‐Si layer. Such an ingenuity can effectively eliminate the leakage path between the parasitic contacts between source/drain metal and a‐Si:H at the edge of a‐Si:H island. In addition, electrical performance of the novel a‐Si:H TFT device exhibits superior effective carrier mobility, as high as 1.05 cm 2 /Vsec due to the enormous improvement in parasitic resistance. The impressively high performance provides the potential of our proposed a‐Si:H TFT to apply for AMLCD and AMOLED technology.
