Abstract

There is provided a method of crystallizing amorphous silicones, which includes: forming a stacked structure of a second amorphous silicon film followed by a first amorphous silicon film on an underlay film, the second amorphous silicon film having a faster crystal growth rate than the first amorphous silicon film; and performing a crystallization treatment on the stacked structure to crystallize silicones contained in at least the second amorphous silicon film.
