In a thin film transistor, an increase in off current or negative shift of the threshold voltage is prevented. In the thin film transistor, a buffer layer is provided between an oxide semiconductor layer and each of a source electrode layer and a drain electrode layer. The buffer layer includes a metal oxide layer which is an insulator or a semiconductor over a middle portion of the oxide semiconductor layer. The metal oxide layer functions as a protective layer for suppressing incorporation of impurities into the oxide semiconductor layer. Therefore, in the thin film transistor, an increase in off current or negative shift of the threshold voltage can be prevented.

An object is to provide a semiconductor device including an oxide semiconductor with stable electric characteristics can be provided. An insulating layer having many defects typified by dangling bonds is formed over an oxide semiconductor layer with an oxygen-excess mixed region or an oxygen-excess oxide insulating layer interposed therebetween, whereby impurities in the oxide semiconductor layer, such as hydrogen or moisture (a hydrogen atom or a compound including a hydrogen atom such as H2O), are moved through the oxygen-excess mixed region or oxygen-excess oxide insulating layer and diffused into the insulating layer. Thus, the impurity concentration of the oxide semiconductor layer is reduced.

To provide a transistor having a favorable electric characteristics and high reliability and a display device including the transistor. The transistor is a bottom-gate transistor formed using an oxide semiconductor for a channel region. An oxide semiconductor layer subjected to dehydration or dehydrogenation through heat treatment is used as an active layer. The active layer includes a first region of a superficial portion microcrystallized and a second region of the rest portion. By using the oxide semiconductor layer having such a structure, a change to an n-type, which is attributed to entry of moisture to the superficial portion or elimination of oxygen from the superficial portion, and generation of a parasitic channel can be suppressed. In addition, contact resistance between the oxide semiconductor layer and source and drain electrodes can be reduced.
