Abstract

The present invention is directed to a thin film transistor (and related multilayer structures) that includes: source and drain electrodes 14 and 15 disposed at a specified interval above an insulating substrate 11 and formed by printing-and-plating; an a-Si-film 16 disposed for the source and drain electrodes 14 and 15; a gate insulating film 17 laminated on the a-Si film 16; and a gate electrode 18 laminated on the gate insulating film 17 and formed by printing-and-plating. The a-Si film 16 and the gate insulating film 17 have an offset region 20 that uniformly extends beyond the dimensions of the gate electrode 18.
