  • Patent number: 11664457
    Abstract: The invention provides a display device and a method of manufacturing a thin film transistor. The method of manufacturing a thin film transistor comprises: (A) providing a substrate; (B) forming a light shielding layer on the substrate, and patterning the light shielding layer to form a patterned light shielding layer; (C) forming a buffer layer on the substrate; (D) forming a semiconductor layer on the substrate, and patterning the semiconductor layer to form a patterned semiconductor layer; (E) forming an insulating layer on the substrate; and (F) forming a conductive layer on the substrate, and patterning the conductive layer to form a patterned conductive layer; wherein the same mask is used for patterning the light shielding layer and the semiconductor layer. Photoelectric effect of the thin film transistor outside the display region can be effectively avoided, while reducing the number of masks in the production process.

  • Patent number: 7049163
    Abstract: A manufacture method of a pixel structure is provided. A gate is formed over a substrate, and a gate insulator layer is formed over the substrate covering the gate. A semiconductor layer is formed over the gate insulator layer and a metal layer is formed over the semiconductor layer. A first mask layer is formed on the metal layer, and the metal layer is patterned to form a source/drain by using the first mask layer as etching mask. Afterward, a second mask layer is formed on the first mask layer and further covers a region between the source/drain. The semiconductor layer is patterned by using the first and second mask layers as etching mask, and then the first and second mask layers are removed. A passivation layer is formed over the substrate. A pixel electrode is formed on the passivation layer. The pixel electrode is electrically connected with the drain.
