Abstract
In a transistor including an oxide semiconductor, a variation in electrical characteristics is suppressed and reliability is improved. A semiconductor device includes a transistor. The transistor includes a first gate electrode, a first insulating film over the first gate electrode, an oxide semiconductor film over the first insulating film, a second insulating film over the oxide semiconductor film, a second gate electrode over the second insulating film, and a third insulating film over the oxide semiconductor film and the second gate electrode. The oxide semiconductor film includes a channel region overlapping with the second gate electrode, a source region in contact with the third insulating film, and a drain region in contact with the third insulating film. The first gate electrode and the second gate electrode are electrically connected to each other. A difference between a minimum value and a maximum value of the field-effect mobility in the case where the field-effect mobility in a saturation region of the transistor is measured.
