Abstract:
The present invention discloses a thin film transistor (TFT), an array substrate, and fabrication methods thereof, and a display device. The TFT includes a gate, an oxide active layer, a source, and a drain formed on a substrate, wherein a source and drain transition layer is provided between the oxide active layer and the source, the drain. One patterning process is reduced and one mask process is saved through forming the source and drain transition layer between the oxide active layer and the source, the drain, thus effectively simplifying the fabrication procedure. At the same time, the additionally provided source and drain transition layer may prevent the oxide active layer from being corroded during etching, also effectively reduce threshold voltage (Vth) drift of the TFT, improve Ion (on-state current)/Ioff (off-state current), and enhance thermal stability.
