Abstract

A thin film transistor includes a gate electrode having a first length measured in a first direction and a first width measured in a second direction, an active layer having a second length measured in the first direction and a second width measured in the second direction, the second length of the active layer being greater than the first length of the gate electrode, and the second width of the active layer being greater than the first width of the gate electrode, and a source electrode and a drain electrode that are connected to the active layer, wherein at least one of opposite side edges of the gate electrode extending in the first direction is spaced apart from a corresponding opposite side edge of the active layer extending in the first direction.
