Abstract

A thin-film transistor (TFT) and a manufacturing method thereof. The manufacturing method for the TFT includes: depositing metal film layers on a substrate by a direct current (DC) sputtering method; and forming a metal oxide film layer or metal oxide film layers by completely oxidizing or partially oxidizing the metal film layers. The TFT includes a gate electrode layer and a gate insulating layer which are tightly integrated.
