Abstract

A method of fabricating a thin film transistor of an inverted stagger structure having a gate terminal, a gate insulator a semiconductor film, a source electrode and a drain electrode formed in that order; a gate terminal and a gate wiring are provided for supplying a scanning signal to the gate electrode; and a source terminal and a source wiring are provided for supplying a data signal to the source electrode, wherein the gate terminal is formed on an upper side of the gate insulating film and electrically connected to the gate wiring through a contact hole formed in the gate insulator.
