Abstract

A thin film transistor includes: a gate electrode, a source electrode, and a drain electrode; an oxide semiconductor layer provided on one side of the gate electrode with an insulating film in between, the oxide semiconductor layer being provided in a region not facing the source electrode and the drain electrode and being electrically connected to the source electrode and the drain electrode; and a low resistance oxide layer provided in a region facing the source electrode and in a region facing the drain electrode, the regions being adjacent to the oxide semiconductor layer, and the low resistance oxide layer having an electric resistivity lower than an electric resistivity of the oxide semiconductor layer.
