Patent ID: 7517236

Claim:
A method for forming a circuit comprising: forming a first island and a second island and a third island and a fourth island over a substrate, each of the first island and the second island and the third island and the fourth island comprising a channel region; scanning the substrate with a linear laser light in a first direction, the linear laser light having a longitudinal direction perpendicular to the first direction; forming a first common electrode comprising a first gate electrode and a second gate electrode, the first gate electrode provided adjacent to the first island with a first gate insulating film therebetween, the second gate electrode provided adjacent to the second island with a second gate insulating film therebetween; and forming a second common electrode comprising a third gate electrode and a fourth gate electrode, the third gate electrode provided adjacent to the third island with a third gate insulating film therebetween, the fourth gate electrode provided adjacent to the fourth island with a fourth gate insulating film therebetween, wherein the first island and the third island are arranged in a first line along the longitudinal direction, wherein the second island and the fourth island are arranged in a second line along the longitudinal direction, and wherein the first line is different from the second line.
