A method for manufacturing a semiconductor thin film includes sequentially forming a first semiconductor layer, an intermediate layer, and a second semiconductor layer over a substrate. The first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer can be one and another of an n-type semiconductor layer and a p-type semiconductor layer. At least one of the first semiconductor layer, the intermediate layer, or the second semiconductor layer is formed via a solution process. The n-type semiconductor layer can include indium oxide. The intermediate layer can include a self-assembly material. The p-type semiconductor layer can include a p-type organic semiconductor material, and can be pentacene. On the basis, a semiconductor thin film manufactured thereby, a semiconductor thin film transistor, and a display apparatus, are also disclosed.
