Patent ID: 7952102

Claim:
A display device which includes a plurality of n-type thin film transistors and a plurality of p-type thin film transistors, wherein the n-type thin film transistor and the p-type thin film transistor respectively have a semiconductor layer, a gate insulation film and a gate electrode, the semiconductor layer includes a channel region, a source region and a drain region, the gate insulation film is formed over the semiconductor layer, the gate electrode is formed over the gate insulation film in a state that the gate electrode strides over the semiconductor layer, the gate electrode of one thin film transistor out of the n-type thin film transistor and the p-type thin film transistor forms a metal layer made of a material different from a material of the gate electrode on a gate-insulation-film side thereof, and at least one of the n-type thin film transistor and the p-type thin film transistor is configured such that a region which exhibits impurity concentration lower than the source region and the drain region is formed between the channel region and the source region and between the channel region and the drain region.
