ABSTRACT:
A thin film transistor having an inverted stagger type structure is formed on a substrate. A gate film having a gate electrode portion is formed on the substrate. A gate insulating film is formed on the gate electrode portion of the gate film such that the gate insulating film is located entirely inside a perimeter defied by the outer edges of the gate electrode portion. A polycrystalline semiconductor film, which is an active layer of the transistor, is formed on the gate insulating film such that it is entirely inside a perimeter defined by the outer edges of the gate insulating layer. The polycrystalline semiconductor film, gate insulating film and gate film are selectively photoetched after being formed on the substrate. Source and drain electrode films are formed so that the electrode films electrically connect with the polycrystalline semiconductor film.
