Abstract

The present invention proposes a low temperature poly-silicon thin-film transistor having a dual-gate structure and a method for forming the low temperature poly-silicon thin-film transistor. The low temperature poly-silicon thin-film transistor includes: a substrate, one or more patterned amorphous silicon (a-Si) layers, disposed in a barrier layer on the substrate, for forming a bottom gate, an NMOS disposed on the barrier layer, and a PMOS disposed on the barrier layer. The NMOS comprises a patterned gate electrode (GE) layer as a top gate, and the patterned GE layer and the bottom gate formed by the one or more patterned a-Si layers form a dual-gate structure. The present invention proposes a low temperature poly-silicon thin-film transistor with a more stabilized I-V characteristic, better driving ability, low power consumption, and higher production yield.
