A method for fabricating a thin film transistor (TFT) on a substrate includes forming a gate electrode; forming a semiconductor layer being insulated from the gate electrode and partially overlapped with the gate electrode; sequentially forming first and second gate insulating layers between the gate electrode and the semiconductor layer, wherein the first gate insulating layer is formed of a material different from the second gate insulating layer and at least one of the first and second gate insulating layers includes a sol-compound; and forming source and drain electrodes at both sides of the semiconductor layer.
