Abstract
A first sheet of photomask is used when a gate electrode and a gate bus line are formed, a second sheet of photomask is used when patterning is applied to a semiconductor film which becomes an active layer of a transistor on the gate electrode, a third sheet of photomask is used when a pixel electrode, a source electrode, a drain electrode, a drain bus line and a drain bus terminal portion are formed, and a fourth sheet of photomask is used when a film on the drain bus terminal portion, the gate bus terminal .portion and pixel portion is removed, thereby to form thin film transistors arranged in a matrix form.
