Abstract
A semiconductor device with favorable electrical characteristics is provided. A semiconductor device with high reliability is provided. A semiconductor device with stable electrical characteristics is provided. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor layer, a first insulating layer, a second insulating layer, and a conductive layer. The semiconductor layer, the second insulating layer, and the conductive layer are stacked in this order over the first insulating layer. The semiconductor layer contains indium and oxygen and has a composition falling within a range obtained by connecting first coordinates (1:0:0), second coordinates (2:1:0), third coordinates (14:7:1), fourth coordinates (7:2:2), fifth coordinates (14:4:21), sixth coordinates (2:0:3), and the first coordinates in this order with a straight line in a ternary diagram showing atomic ratios of indium to an element M and zinc. In addition, the element M is one or more of gallium, aluminum, yttrium, and tin.
