ABSTRACT:
A method of fabricating a thin film transistor includes the steps of forming an active layer on an insulating substrate; forming an insulating layer and a first metal layer on the active layer; forming a photoresist pattern for forming a gate electrode on the metal layer; etching the metal layer and the insulating layer by using the photoresist pattern as a mask, and respectively forming a gate electrode and a gate insulating layer to expose a part of the active layer; forming an amorphous silicon layer on the resultant whole surface of the substrate; forming a second metal layer on the amorphous silicon layer; patterning the second metal layer and the amorphous silicon layer by a photolithographic process to form an offset layer and a source/drain electrode; and carrying out a lift-off process to remove the photoresist pattern, and exposing the surface on the gate electrode.
