    摘要: Provided is a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device with fewer masks and in a simple process. A gate electrode is formed. A gate insulating film, a semiconductor film, an impurity semiconductor film, and a conductive film are stacked in this order, covering the gate electrode. A source electrode and a drain electrode are formed by processing the conductive film. A source region, a drain region, and a semiconductor layer, an upper part of a portion of which does not overlap with the source region and the drain region is removed, are formed by processing the upper part of the semiconductor film, while the impurity semiconductor film is divided. A passivation film over the gate insulating film, the semiconductor layer, the source region, the drain region, the source electrode, and the drain electrode are formed. An etching mask is formed over the passivation film. At least the passivation film and the semiconductor layer are processed to have an island shape while an opening reaching the source electrode or the drain electrode is formed, with the use of the etching mask. The etching mask is removed. A pixel electrode is formed over the gate insulating film and the passivation film.

    摘要: A thin film transistor includes, as a buffer layer, a semiconductor layer which contains nitrogen and includes crystal regions in an amorphous structure between a gate insulating layer and source and drain regions, at least on the source and drain regions side. As compared to a thin film transistor in which an amorphous semiconductor is included in a channel formation region, on-current of a thin film transistor can be increased. In addition, as compared to a thin film transistor in which a microcrystalline semiconductor is included in a channel formation region, off-current of a thin film transistor can be reduced.

    摘要: A first shape of semiconductor region having on its one side a plurality of sharp convex top-end portions is formed first and a continuous wave laser beam is used for radiation from the above region so as to crystallize the first shape of semiconductor region. A continuous wave laser beam condensed in one or plural lines is used for the laser beam. The first shape of semiconductor region is etched to form a second shape of semiconductor region in which a channel forming region and a source and drain region are formed. The second shape of semiconductor region is disposed so that a channel foaming range would be formed on respective crystal regions extending from the plurality of convex end portions. A semiconductor region adjacent to the channel forming region is eliminated.
