Abstract
A field effect transistor has an insulating substrate, a semiconductor thin film formed on the insulating substrate, and a gate insulating film on the semiconductor thin film. A first gate electrode is formed on the gate insulating film. A first region and a second region having a first conductivity type are formed on or in a surface of the semiconductor film on opposite sides of the first gate electrode in a length direction thereof. A third region having a second conductivity type opposite the first conductivity type is arranged on or in the semiconductor film side by side with the second region in a width direction of the first gate electrode. The third region and the second region are in contact with each other and make a low resistance junction. A second gate electrode is formed on the gate insulating film along the second region. A fourth region having the first conductivity type is formed on or in the semiconductor film on an opposite side of the second region with respect to the second gate electrode. One of the first and the fourth regions is used as an output region according to a circuit operation.
