Abstract
A method for manufacturing an amorphous silicon thin film transistor in which a gate insulating layer is provided over a gate on a substrate. An amorphous silicon layer is formed on the gate insulating layer, and a protective insulating layer is formed on the amorphous silicon layer. A pattern conforming to the gate is applied to the protective layer, and the amorphous layer is exposed in regions outside of the pattern. A doped silicon layer is then added, and source and drain electrodes formed to partly overlap the remaining protective insulating layer.
