Transient conductance measurements were used to study rapid carrier generation during the laser doping of a silicon film. The movement of the liquid-solid interface was measured and the point of initiation of carrier generation frcn dopant atoms diffused to the molten silicon was determined. It was established that the dopant atais are activated at the nmorent the dopant diffused region solidified. Also, the laser doping technique was used to fabricate polycrystalline silicsn thin film transistors (Poly-Si TFT's) ata processing temperature of 250ºC.
