Abstract

Provided is a method of fabricating a thin film transistor including source and drain electrodes, a novel channel layer, a gate insulating layer, and a gate electrode, which are formed on a substrate. The method includes the steps of forming the channel layer using an oxide semiconductor doped with boron; and patterning the channel layer. The channel layer formed is an oxide semiconductor thin film doped with boron. The electrical characteristics and high temperature stability of the thin film transistor are improved remarkably.
