Abstract: A method of producing an organic transistor which can form directly an organic semiconductor layer in pattern by simple processes and can produce an organic transistor excellent in transistor characteristics.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for making a thin film semiconductor device having a bottom-gate, bottom-contact-type thin film transistor structure finer in size with satisfactory characteristics, in which the interface between a gate insulating film and a thin film semiconductor layer can be maintained at satisfactory conditions without being affected by formation of source/drain electrodes. A first gate insulating film (7-1) covering a gate electrode (5) on a substrate (3) is formed, and a pair of source/drain electrodes (9) is formed on the first gate insulating film (7-1). Subsequently, a second gate insulating film (7-2) is selectively formed only on the first gate insulating film (7-2) exposed from the source/drain electrodes (9). Next, a thin film semiconductor layer (11) continuously covering from the source/drain electrodes (9) to the first gate insulating film (7-1) through the second gate insulating film (7-2) is formed while making contact with the source/drain electrodes (9).
