A thin-film transistor (TFT) includes a gate electrode, a gate dielectric layer, a semiconductor layer, source/drain electrodes, a passivation layer and a protection layer. The gate electrode is disposed on a substrate. The gate dielectric layer covers the gate electrode and the substrate. The semiconductor layer is disposed on the gate dielectric layer and above the gate electrode. The semiconductor layer has a channel region disposed above the gate electrode and source/drain regions disposed at both sides of the channel region. The source/drain electrodes are disposed on the source/drain regions of the semiconductor layer and each has a barrier layer disposed on the source/drain regions of the semiconductor layer and a conductive layer disposed on the barrier layer. The passivation layer is disposed over the surface of the source/drain electrodes. The protection layer is disposed over the substrate, the passivation layer, and the channel region of the semiconductor layer.
