Abstract
A thin film transistor with multiple gates using an MILC process which is capable of materializing multiple gates without increasing dimensions and a method thereof. The thin film transistor has a semiconductor layer which is formed on a insulating substrate in a zigzag shape; and a gate electrode which is equipped with one or more slots intersecting with the semiconductor layer, the semiconductor layer includes two or more body parts intersecting with the gate electrode; and one or more connection parts connecting each neighboring body part, wherein a part overlapping the semiconductor layer in the gate electrode acts as a multiple gate, and MILC surfaces are formed at a part which does not intersect with the gate electrode in the semiconductor layer.
