Abstract

In a transistor having an oxide semiconductor film, improving the field-effect mobility Together, we will improve reliability. [Solution] The following oxide semiconductors are used for the semiconductor layer of the transistor. Oxide semiconductors are It is a composite oxide semiconductor in which a first region and a second region are mixed. The first region is Multiple components, one or more selected from ionium, zinc, and oxygen. It has the first cluster. The second region has indium, element M (where M is Al, Ga, The main components are one or more selected from Y (or Sn), zinc, and oxygen. It has multiple second clusters. The first region is where multiple first clusters are connected to each other. The second region has a portion where multiple second clusters are connected to each other.
