Semiconductor device, active matrix substrate, and display device

Abstract

A semiconductor device () includes: a gate electrode () formed on a substrate (); a semiconductor layer () formed above the gate electrode () and including a source region, a drain region, and a channel region; a source electrode () connected to the source region above the semiconductor layer (); and a drain electrode () connected to the drain region above the semiconductor layer (). The semiconductor layer () has, at a portion overlapping the drain electrode (), a protrusion that protrudes outward along an extending direction of a drain line drawn out from the drain electrode (). At an outside of the channel region sandwiched between the drain electrode () and the source electrode (), the semiconductor layer () has an adjustment portion where an outer boundary of the semiconductor layer () is positioned more inward than an outer boundary of the gate electrode ().
