はるかに薄型の表示装置が実現できる。In recent years, thin display devices in which transistors are arranged in a matrix array and used as a driving device have been attracting attention. In this display method, a pixel circuit in which a storage capacitor and a switching transistor are connected on a substrate is configured in a matrix, image information is stored in the storage capacitor using the transistor as a switching element, and this image information is provided on the matrix. This device attempts to obtain images by displaying images using dot-shaped display elements such as a liquid crystal layer (EL layer) or an EL layer, and it is possible to realize a display device that is much thinner than a CRT.

The data voltage V (Yj) connected to the source is stored in the storage capacitor C
Write to sH. By turning off the gate, the image information is held in the storage capacity for a predetermined frame time. This image voltage drives the liquid crystal cell to display image information. The terminal voltage Vc is the voltage at the counter electrode of the liquid d% cell. In the operation of the pixel circuit, the existence of the stray capacitance Cgd Q4 between the gate and drain causes a decrease ΔVs in the write voltage Vs to the storage capacitor. Gate on voltage is VG.

しているため、チャンネル長の減少が生じている。In the case of FIG. 5(b), since the distance between the gate and the drain is large, the capacitance between the gate and the drain: Cgd increases. Furthermore, since the source and drain protrude beyond the gate region, the channel length is reduced.
