Hydrogenated amorphous silicon thin-film transistors (TFTs) with channel length below 4 mm, were successfully fabricated using a new halftone exposure technique combined with conventional photolithography. A concept of asymmetric double-slit design was applied to decrease channel length (L). TFTs having a channel length down to 3 mm was successfully fabricated, and showed better output capability with minor changes in mobility and off-state current. #
