Abstract

To improve field-effect mobility and reliability of a transistor including an oxide semiconductor film. A semiconductor device includes an oxide semiconductor film, a gate electrode, an insulating film over the gate electrode, the oxide semiconductor film over the insulating film, and a pair of electrodes over the oxide semiconductor film. The oxide semiconductor film includes a first oxide semiconductor film and a second oxide semiconductor film over the first oxide semiconductor film. The first oxide semiconductor film and the second oxide semiconductor film, include the same element. The first oxide semiconductor film includes a region having lower crystallinity than the second oxide semiconductor film.
