Embodiments of the invention provide methods for forming III-V gate-all-around field effect transistors on silicon substrates that utilize Aspect-Ratio Trapping to reduce or eliminate dislocation defects associated with lattice mismatches. A field dielectric material defining a trench is formed on a crystalline silicon substrate. A channel feature comprising III-V material is subsequently formed inside the trench. Source/drain features are then formed at both ends of the channel feature inside the trench. Lastly, gate dielectric layers and a gate feature are formed surrounding a portion of the channel feature.

The invention relates to a method for fabricating an array substrate, an array substrate and a display device. The method for fabricating an array substrate may comprise: forming a pattern including a source electrode, a drain electrode and a data line; forming a non-crystalline semiconductor thin film layer; and performing annealing, so as to convert only the non-crystalline semiconductor thin film layer on the source electrode, drain electrode and data line to a metal semiconductor compound. By converting only the non-crystalline semiconductor thin film layer on the source electrode, drain electrode and data line into a metal semiconductor compound, the resulting metal semiconductor compound may prevent oxidative-corrosion of the metal thin film layer, such as a low-resistance metal (e.g., Cu or Ti) layer, in the subsequent procedures, which is favorable for the fabrication of a metal oxide thin film transistor using Cu or Ti.
