Abstract

A method of forming a liquid crystal display device with a pixel TFT, a bottom electrode of pixel capacitor CL, and a storage capacitor Cs in a pixel region, and an n-type TFT and a p-type TFT in a driving circuit region is disclosed. Firstly, a transparent conductive oxide layer, a metal layer and an n-type heavy doped silicon layer are sequentially formed on a glass substrate. Thereafter, a patterning step is performed to define some predefined regions for above devices. After an active layer and a gate oxide layer are formed in order on all patterned surfaces, another patterning step is done to form a first, a second, and a third preserved region, respectively, for a LDD region of the n type TFT, source/drain regions for the p type TFT and a LDD region for pixel TFT and Cs. Afterward, gate electrodes are formed for aforementioned TFT and an upper electrode for Cs. Subsequently, a blanket nLDD implant is performed. Thereafter, a p type source/drain implant is carried out using a photoresist pattern as a mask. After removing the photoresist pattern, a passivation layer is formed on all areas. Next an annealing is performed to active the implant impurities. Another patterning process is then performed to form contact by patterning the passivation layer and form the bottom electrode of CL by further patterning the n-type heavy doped silicon layer, and the metal layer.
