A display device includes: a substrate; and a transistor on the substrate. The transistor includes: a semiconductor layer; a gate electrode overlapping with the semiconductor layer; a first gate contact overlapping layer overlapping with a channel region, and in contact with the gate electrode, the channel region being a region where the gate electrode and the semiconductor layer are overlapped with each other; and a semiconductor contact overlapping layer overlapping with the channel region, and in contact with the semiconductor layer. The first gate contact overlapping layer and the semiconductor contact overlapping layer are spaced apart from each other by a gap within the channel region.
