Example Embodiment

[0032] Embodiment 1

[0033] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. The thin film transistor device of the embodiment of the present invention constitutes a TFT array (TFT array) substrate 1. FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view showing the structure of the TFT array substrate 1 of this embodiment. The TFT array substrate 1 has a display area 2 and a frame area 3 provided to surround the display area 2. In this display area 2, a plurality of gate signal lines 4 and a plurality of source signal lines 5 are formed. The plurality of gate signal lines 4 are respectively arranged in parallel. Similarly, a plurality of source signal lines 5 are respectively arranged in parallel. In addition, the gate signal line 4 and the source signal line 5 are orthogonal. The area surrounded by the gate signal line 4 and the source signal line 5 becomes the pixel 6. That is, on the TFT array substrate 1, the pixels 6 are arranged...

Abstract

To provide a thin-film transistor device for good source-drain contact and capacitance stabilization of a holding capacitor part, reduction of leakage between source and drain, improvement of withstand voltage of a gate insulating film, and reduction of contact resistance A manufacturing method thereof, and a display device having a thin film transistor device. The thin film transistor device of the present invention is characterized in that it has: a semiconductor layer having a source region, a drain region, and a channel region formed in a predetermined region on a substrate; a metal film formed on the semiconductor layer; a gate insulating film on and on the semiconductor layer; a gate electrode; an interlayer insulating film; and a wiring electrode, wherein a metal film is formed at least in a region to be a bottom of a contact hole on a source region and a drain region of the semiconductor layer, The film thickness of the semiconductor layer in the region where the metal film is not formed is thinner than the film thickness of the semiconductor layer where the metal film is formed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an active matrix (active matrix) photoelectric display device, in particular to a thin film transistor (TFT: Thin Film Transistor) device used in a liquid crystal display device and an organic electroluminescence (EL: Electroluminescence) display device , its manufacturing method and display device. Background technique [0002] In recent years, research and development of thin display devices such as liquid crystal display devices and EL display devices using TFTs has been progressing. Compared with the existing amorphous silicon (amorphous silicon) TFT, the TFT using polysilicon as the material of the active region has the advantages of being able to form a high-precision panel (panel), integrally forming the driver circuit area and the pixel area, and because it does not require Attention has been paid to advantages such as the cost reduction of the drive circuit chip (chip) and mounting cost (cost). [0003] The T...
