Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the damage of transistor channel parts in the later process of using plasma by a method wherein an SiO2 film is provided on a thin film transistor. CONSTITUTION:A gate electrode material is adhered on a glass substrate 1 and patterned into a gate electrode 2. A gate insulation film 3, an a-Si active layer 4, and an SiO2 channel protection film 5 are successively formed over the whole surface by glow discharge decomposition. For channel patterning, the whole surface is coated with a resist film, which is then exposed and developed, thus forming a resist film 10 corresponding to the dimension of the gate electrode, and the protection film 5 is selectively etched by being masked with that film. An N<+>a-Si film 7 for ohmic contact is formed, and an electrode material is adhered and formed into a drain electrode 8a and a source electrode 8b. The mesa structure of active layer, N<+> type layer, and electrode material is formed by etching the electrode material, N<+>a-Si film, and a-Si film. Finally, an SiO2 film 9 is formed over the whole surface as the protection film and etched.
