Abstract
A thin film transistor includes a gate terminal, an insulation layer formed on the gate terminal, a first semiconductor silicon layer formed on the insulation layer, a source terminal formed on the first semiconductor silicon layer, and a drain terminal. The drain terminal is partially located on the insulation layer and the first semiconductor silicon layer. The drain terminal and the gate terminal overlap each other via the insulation layer to form a first overlap region and also overlap each other via the first semiconductor silicon layer and the insulation layer to form a second overlap region. The first and second overlap regions respectively generate first and second parasitic capacitances. The thin film transistor includes a compensation structure, whereby when the drain terminal is shifted with respect to the gate terminal, the compensation structure maintaining area of the first overlap region and area of the second overlap region unchanged.
