Abstract:
A light emitting device comprising:a substrate; a plurality of gate wirings which extend in parallel with each other in one direction over the substrate; a plurality of data wirings which extend in parallel with each other in other one direction over the substrate wherein the plurality of data wirings intersect with the plurality of gate wirings and each of a plurality of pixels is defined by the plurality of data wirings and the plurality of gate wirings; at least a first thin film transistor provided at respective pixels, the first thin film transistor comprising a pair of first impurity regions, a channel region between the pair of first impurity regions, a pair of second impurity regions between the first impurity region and the channel region, and a gate electrode over the channel region wherein the gate electrode is electrically connected to the corresponding gate wiring; at least a second thin film transistor provided at respective pixels, the second thin film transistor comprising a pair of third impurity regions, a channel region between the pair of third impurity regions, a fourth impurity region between one of the third impurity region and the channel region wherein the other one of the third impurity region is contiguous to the channel region, and a gate electrode over the channel region; an interlayer insulating film over the first and second thin film transistors; an electroluminescence element over the interlayer insulating film wherein the second thin film transistor is electrically connected to the electroluminescence element; a driver circuit comprising a third thin film transistor over the substrate; and a signal processing circuit comprising a fourth thin film transistor over the substrate.
