Abstract:
1. A method for fabricating an active matrix display including TFTs which are provided in one-to-one correspondence with a plurality of pixels and each include a semiconductor layer portion including a source portion and a drain portion, and a gate electrode, source lines connected to the source portions of the TFTs, and gate lines connected to the gate electrodes of the TFTs, the method comprising: a repair step of repairing one of the pixels resulting in a defective bright spot so as to display the pixel in black, wherein in the repair step, the drain portion of the TFT of the pixel resulting in the defective bright spot is shorted to the corresponding gate line, and in the pixel resulting in the defective bright spot, the semiconductor layer portion of the TFT is cut to allow electrical isolation between the corresponding source line and the corresponding gate line.
