(37) According to some embodiments of the disclosure, an application method of the transistor with floating gate electrode is provided. The transistor with floating gate electrode is manufactured by the above manufacturing method of the transistor with floating gate electrode. The application method of the transistor with floating gate electrode includes the following steps: connecting the control gate electrode and the source electrode with a power supply with preset voltage and grounding the channel region and the drain electrode; cutting off the power supply after a preset time, so that a predetermined amount of negative charges accumulate on the floating gate electrode and the threshold voltage of the transistor with floating gate electrode reaches a preset value.

(38) The threshold voltage of the transistor is changed depending on whether or how many charges are stored on the floating gate electrode. The floating gate electrode store enough charges after the charging process continues for the preset time.

(39) For example, the preset voltage is 25V. However, the embodiments of the disclosure is not limited thereto, an appropriate preset voltage may be selected according to the manufactured TFT.

(40) The voltage of the transistor with floating gate electrode is measured. When the voltage of the transistor with floating gate electrode exceeds a preset regulation voltage, the control gate electrode and the source electrode are grounded, and the channel region and the drain electrode are connected with the power supply with the preset voltage. When the voltage of the transistor with floating gate electrode is smaller than the preset regulation voltage, the control gate electrode and the source electrode are again connected with the power supply with the preset voltage and the channel region of the polysilicon film and the drain electrode are again grounded.

(41) Alternatively, when the voltage of the transistor with floating gate electrode exceeds the preset regulation voltage, the charges are released by ultraviolet irradiation.

(42) For example, details of the process of adjusting the threshold voltage of the TFT is as follows: connecting the control gate electrode and the source electrode with a programmable power supply VCC and grounding the channel region and the drain electrode, as shown in FIG. 22; applying a voltage of 25V by the programmable power supply, and controlling the duration of applying the voltage by the programmable power supply according to the amount of charges on the floating gate electrode to be stored, as shown in FIG. 23; after a preset time, the programmable power supply is cutoff.

(43) The threshold voltage of the TFT (voltage required for normally turning on the transistor with floating gate electrode) is measured to determine whether the threshold voltage of the TFT meet conditions for the circuit to normally operate. If not, the above method is performed to adjust the threshold voltage of the TFT.

(44) The floating gate electrode of the transistor is able to store a certain amount of charges, and the control gate electrode normally drives the transistor in the case that the normal driving voltage plus the voltage of the floating gate electrode is applied. The floating gate electrode adjusts the threshold voltage of the TFT by means of this principle. In this way, the case that the entire circuit does not normally operate since the threshold voltage of TFT does not meet the preset value is avoided, and the cost is reduced. Adjustment of the threshold voltage of the TFT by the floating gate electrode is implemented after completing the manufacture process of the TFT. Depending on the measurement result of the threshold voltage of the TFT, the floating gate electrode is charged or discharged for those TFTs with threshold voltages not within the normal range so that those TFTs can operate, which significantly improves the yield of the products.

A channel region 2 is formed in the polysilicon film 8 at a position corresponding to the floating gate electrode 3.

(46) The provision manner of the channel region 2 is in favor of the manufacturing of floating gate electrode during the manufacturing process of the transistor with floating gate electrode. This is because if a bottom gate electrode structure is adopted, the ELA process will damage the metal gate electrode.

(47) A second insulating film 9 and a third insulating film 10 are sequentially disposed on the polysilicon film 8, and the floating gate electrode 3 is sandwiched between the second insulating film 9 and the third insulating film 10.

(48) The third insulating film 10 is provided with a first opening and a second opening on both sides of the floating gate electrode 3, and the first opening and the second opening extend to the polysilicon film 8 to form a source electrode via hole 41 and a drain electrode via hole 51. A metal film contacting a source region of the polysilicon film 8 is provided in the source electrode via hole 41 to form the source electrode 4. Similarly, a metal film contacting a drain region of the polysilicon film 8 is provided in the drain electrode via hole 51 to form the drain electrode 5.

(49) A metal film is disposed on the third insulating film 10 at a position corresponding to the floating gate electrode 3 to form the control gate electrode 6. The control gate electrode 6 corresponds to the channel region 2.

(50) For example, a layer of metal film is deposited on the third insulating film 10 and covers portions of the polysilicon film 8 exposed by the third insulating film 10. Then, by performing a patterning process, the control gate electrode 6 is formed on the third insulating film 10 and the source electrode 4 and the drain electrode 5 are respectively formed in the exposed portions of the polysilicon film 8.

(51) For example, the first insulating film, the second insulating film and the third insulating film are manufactured by SiOx, SiNx, SiOxNy or combinations thereof. FIG. 2 only shows partial structure of the transistor with floating gate electrode.

(52) The transistor with floating gate electrode according to the embodiments of the disclosure is able to be in place of thin film transistors in prior art.

(64) According to some embodiments of the disclosure, an application method of a display driving circuit is provided. In practical applications, calibration is performed by adjusting the threshold voltage of the transistor with floating gate electrode in the display driving circuit, so that the display driving circuit normally operates. The adjustment process of the threshold voltage of the transistor with floating gate electrode includes: connecting the control gate electrode and the source electrode with a power supply with preset voltage and grounding the channel region and the drain electrode; cutting off the power supply after a preset time, so that a predetermined amount of negative charges accumulate on the floating gate electrode and the threshold voltage of the transistor with floating gate electrode reaches a preset value.

(65) The threshold voltage of the transistor is changed depending on whether or how many charges are stored on the floating gate electrode. The floating gate electrode store enough charges after the charging process continues for the preset time.

(66) For example, the preset voltage is 25V. However, the embodiments of the disclosure is not limited thereto, an appropriate preset voltage may be selected according to the structure and the materials of the manufactured TFT.

(67) The voltage of the transistor with floating gate electrode is measured. When the voltage of the transistor with floating gate electrode exceeds a preset regulation voltage, the control gate electrode and the source electrode are grounded, and the channel region and the drain electrode are connected with the power supply with the preset voltage. When the voltage of the transistor with floating gate electrode is smaller than the preset regulation voltage, the control gate electrode and the source electrode are again connected with the power supply with the preset voltage and the channel region of the polysilicon film and the drain electrode are again grounded.

(68) Alternatively, when the voltage of the transistor with floating gate electrode exceeds the preset regulation voltage, the charges are released by ultraviolet irradiation.

(69) For example, details of the process of adjusting the threshold voltage of the TFT is as follows: connecting the control gate electrode and the source electrode with a programmable power supply VCC and grounding the channel region and the drain electrode, as shown in FIG. 22; applying a voltage of 25V by the programmable power supply, and controlling the duration of applying the voltage by the programmable power supply according to the amount of charges on the floating gate electrode to be stored, as shown in FIG. 23; after a preset time, the programmable power supply is cutoff.

(70) The threshold voltage of the TFT is measured to determine whether the threshold voltage of the TFT meet conditions for the circuit to normally operate. If not, the above method is performed to adjust the threshold voltage of the TFT.

(71) The floating gate electrode of the transistor is able to store a certain amount of charges, and the control gate electrode normally drives the transistor in the case that the normal driving voltage plus the voltage of the floating gate electrode is applied. The floating gate electrode adjusts the threshold voltage of the TFT by means of this principle. In this way, the case that the entire circuit does not normally operate since the threshold voltage of TFT is not met the preset value is avoided, and the cost is reduced. Adjustment of the threshold voltage of the TFT by the floating gate electrode is implemented after completing the manufacture process of the TFT. Depending on the measurement result of the threshold voltage of the TFT, the floating gate electrode is charged or discharged for those TFTs with threshold voltages not within the normal range so that those TFTs can operate normally, which significantly improves the yield of the products.

(72) The foregoing embodiments merely are exemplary embodiments of the invention, and not intended to define the scope of the invention, and the scope of the invention is determined by the appended claims.
