  • Publication number: 20230371313
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present application provide a semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the same for implementing both polysilicon TFTs and oxide TFTs with less process complication. The semiconductor device includes first and second thin film transistor structures formed on a substrate. The first TFT structure includes a first transistor and a capacitor on the first transistor, and the second TFT structure includes a bottom metal layer, a second insulating layer on the bottom metal layer, and a second transistor on the second insulating layer. A lower electrode of the capacitor comprises the same metal material as the bottom metal layer, a dielectric layer of the capacitor comprises the same insulator material as the second insulating layer, and the upper electrode of the capacitor comprises the same oxide semiconductor material as a semiconductor active layer of the second transistor.
