Description of the invention (1) [Technical field to which the invention belongs] The present invention relates to a thin film transistor element, and more particularly, to a thin film transistor element with substrate contact applied to a low temperature polycrystalline silicon thin film transistor liquid crystal display. . [Previous technology] Thin film transistor (TFT) is an important element of thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT LCD). The technology of thin film transistor is mainly divided into Amorphous S i 1 i con and many There are two types of polycrystalline silicon (Polys i 1 icon). Amorphous silicon thin film transistors are currently mature and are the mainstream products of liquid crystal displays. Polycrystalline silicon technology requires amorphous silicon to be recrystallized into a polycrystalline silicon structure. Due to process cost and display quality considerations, low-temperature polycrystalline silicon technology is currently the focus of development. The polycrystalline stone evening electron has a hundred times faster electron moving speed than the amorphous silicon, and has the advantages of fast display, high brightness, and high resolution. In addition, since polycrystalline silicon has a fast electron moving speed, peripheral driving circuits can be integrated on the polycrystalline glass substrate to reduce its weight and achieve thinner and lighter requirements. However, the current process of integrating thin-film transistors and their driving circuits on polycrystalline glass substrates is currently compared to the use of complementary metal-oxide semiconductors (C 〇mp 1 ementary M eta 1-0 X ide Semi 〇nduct 〇). r, c M 0 S) technology has the disadvantages of higher threshold voltage and lower electron mobility. It can be seen that the driving current generated by the thin film transistor is still smaller than that of the complementary metal-oxide semiconductor integrated device under the same size. In addition, as thin film transistor liquid crystal displays are oriented toward large size and high 200418187 V. Invention Description (2) With the development of resolution, higher efficiency thin film transistor driving circuits are needed to cooperate. At the same time, the driving circuit area of the glass substrate made of polycrystalline stone needs to be limited by the pixel pitch. How to make a thin film transistor with high efficiency in a limited area has become the current research focus. [Summary of the Invention] To solve the problem of the conventional technology, that is, to increase the driving current of the thin film transistor in a limited driving circuit area. The present invention provides a thin film transistor element having a substrate contact, and a body-trigger bias is applied to the substrate of the thin film transistor to reduce the threshold voltage of the thin film transistor to increase its driving current. In order to achieve the above object, the thin film transistor device with substrate contact disclosed in the present invention includes: an insulating substrate, a polycrystalline silicon layer, an insulating layer (which may be made of silicon oxide), and a gate electrode; the polycrystalline silicon layer The polycrystalline silicon layer is formed on the surface of the insulating substrate. The polycrystalline silicon layer is composed of a channel region, a source region, and an electrodeless region. The source and electrodeless regions are doped with suitable impurities and connected to the channel. The insulating layer covers the channel area of the polycrystalline silicon layer, part of the source region, and the surface of the polar region; and a gate heavy electrode system is formed over the silicon oxide layer in the channel region of the polycrystalline silicon layer. . Among them, the 2-channel region has a substrate contact region connecting the insulating substrate and the insulating layer. The surface of the base contact region has a contact layer penetrating the insulating layer, and the contact layer ^ is in contact with the gate electrode. This substrate contact region needs to be doped and different types of impurities in the source and drain regions to provide a body-trigger bias to the insulating substrate. In order to further the purpose, structural features and functions of the present invention
