The disclosure provides a manufacturing method and a structure thereof of a TFT backplane. In the manufacturing method of the TFT backplane, after a polysilicon layer (3) is formed by implanting a induced ion solid-phase crystallization into an amorphous silicon layer (3), patterning the polysilicon layer using a half-tone mask to form an island active layer (4), and at the same time, etching a upper layer portion (31) with more implanted induced ions located in the middle portion of the island active layer (4) to form a channel region, retaining the upper layer portion (31) with more implanted induced ions located in two sides of the island active layer (4) to form a source/drain contact region, it not only reduces the number of masks, but also saves a process only for implanting doped ion into the source/drain contact region, thereby simplifying the process and reducing production cost.

Related to is a thin film transistor and a liquid crystal display device. The thin film transistor comprises a substrate, and a conductive laminate and a light-shielding layer that are both arranged on the substrate, wherein the light-shielding layer is located below and directly opposite to the conductive laminate. The thin film transistor is provided therein with the light-shielding layer for shading light from irradiating the conductive laminate, thereby effectively preventing unfavorable influences imposed on the electrical properties of oxides by illumination, and thus improving the electrical properties of the thin film transistor.

There is provided a structure of a nano memory system. The disclosed unit nano memory cell comprises a single isolated nanoparticle placed on the surface of a semiconductor substrate (301) and an adjacent nano-Schottky contact (303). The nanoparticle works as a storage site where the nano-Schottky contact (303) works as a source or a drain of electrons, in or out of the semiconductor substrate (301), at a relatively small voltage. The electric current through the nano-Schottky contact (303) can be turned on (reading 1) or off (reading 0) by charging or discharging the nanoparticle. Since the electric contact is made by a nano-Scottky contact (303) on the surface and the back contact of the substrate (301), and the charge is stored in a very small nanoparticle, this allows to attain the ultimate device down-scaling. This would also significantly increase the number of nano memory cells on a chip. Moreover, the charging and discharging (writing/erasing), as well as the reading voltages are lower than those needed for CMOS based flash memory cells, due to the small nano-Schottky contact (301) and the small size of the nanoparticle for charge storage.
