Abstract

A method for forming a top gate polysilicon type thin film transistor is disclosed. Prior to ion implantation, a gate insulating layer except for a gate region is removed to lower an energy level for ion implantation. When two impurity types of a transistor are made on the same substrate, low energy ions are implanted to diminish a photoresist burning problem. Therefore, it is possible to improve conductivity of polysilicon and alleviate damage to the polysilicon.
