Abstract
A method for manufacturing a amorphous silicon thin film transistor comprises exposing an morphous silicon layer situated between a source electrode and a drain electrode to a gas phase atmosphere having a gas containing an impurity forming an acceptor, then activating said impurity with an electric field or light energy and doping the activated impurity into said amorphous silicon layer. The gas may be a hydrogen compound and it may include an oxidizing gas.
