Abstract
An electronic device which comprises a gate electrode on one surface of a substrate and a gate insulating film covering the substrate and the gate electrode therewith is described. The device further comprises a semiconductor active layer formed above the gate electrode and having a width smaller than the gate electrode, and a source electrode and a drain electrode formed on the semiconductor active layer through an ohmic contact layer wherein the space between the source electrode and the drain electrode kept away from each other is wider than the space between the spaced ohmic contact layers, and the substrate is irradiated with light from the other surface on which the gate electrode is not formed. A method for making the device is also described.
