    Abstract: Favorable electrical characteristics are given to a semiconductor device. Furthermore, a semiconductor device having high reliability is provided. One embodiment of the present invention is an oxide semiconductor film having a plurality of electron diffraction patterns which are observed in such a manner that a surface where the oxide semiconductor film is formed is irradiated with an electron beam having a probe diameter whose half-width is 1 nm. The plurality of electron diffraction patterns include 50 or more electron diffraction patterns which are observed in different areas, the sum of the percentage of first electron diffraction patterns and the percentage of second electron diffraction patterns accounts for 100%, the first electron diffraction patterns account for 90% or more, the first electron diffraction pattern includes observed points which indicates that a c-axis is oriented in a direction substantially perpendicular to the surface where the oxide semiconductor film is formed.

    Abstract: An oxide semiconductor stacked film which does not easily cause a variation in electrical characteristics of a transistor and has high stability is provided. Further, a transistor which includes the oxide semiconductor stacked film in its channel formation region and has stable electrical characteristics is provided. An oxide semiconductor stacked film includes a first oxide semiconductor layer, a second oxide semiconductor layer, and a third oxide semiconductor layer which are sequentially stacked and each of which contains indium, gallium, and zinc. The content percentage of indium in the second oxide semiconductor layer is higher than that in the first oxide semiconductor layer and the third oxide semiconductor layer, and the absorption coefficient of the oxide semiconductor stacked film, which is measured by the CPM, is lower than or equal to 3×10−3/cm in an energy range of 1.5 eV to 2.3 eV.
