It is an object to provide an user identity authentication system and an user identity authentication method with the Internet and a mobile information communication device. The mobile information communication device includes a liquid crystal device with a built-in image sensor. The image sensor reads individual information of a user, and user's identity is authenticated based on the individual information. A result of the authentication is unicast via the Internet. Alternatively, it is judged whether or not the result of the authentication is required to be unicast in accordance with a degree of requirement preset in the mobile information communication device or a destination terminal of communication, and the result is unicast via the Internet only when needed.

The present invention has an object to provide an active-matrix liquid crystal display device that realizes the improvement in productivity as well as in yield. In the present invention, a laminate film comprising the conductive film comprising metallic material and the second amorphous semiconductor film containing an impurity element of one conductivity type and the amorphous semiconductor film is selectively etched with the same etching gas to form a side edge of the first amorphous semiconductor film 1001 into a taper shape. Thereby, a coverage problem of a pixel electrode 1003 can be solved and an inverse stagger type can be completed with three photomask.

An object of an embodiment of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor device including a normally-off oxide semiconductor element whose characteristic variation is small in the long term. A cation containing one or more elements selected from oxygen and halogen is added to an oxide semiconductor layer, thereby suppressing elimination of oxygen, reducing hydrogen, or suppressing movement of hydrogen. Accordingly, carriers in the oxide semiconductor can be reduced and the number of the carriers can be kept constant in the long term. As a result, the semiconductor device including the normally-off oxide semiconductor element whose characteristic variation is small in the long term can be provided.
