Abstract:
A method for fabricating a thin film transistor includes providing a substrate ( 100 ); forming a semiconductor layer ( 105 ) over the substrate ( 100 ); forming a source-drain metal layer ( 106 ) over the semiconductor layer ( 105 ); applying one patterning process to the semiconductor layer ( 105 ) and the source-drain metal layer ( 106 ) to form an active layer ( 1 ), a source electrode ( 2 ), and a drain electrode ( 3 ); forming a gate insulating layer ( 101 ) and an interlayer insulating layer ( 102 ) that cover the active layer ( 1 ), the source electrode ( 2 ), and the drain electrode ( 3 ); applying a patterning process to the interlayer insulating layer ( 102 ) to form a first window ( 10 ) in the interlayer insulating layer ( 102 ) to expose a portion of the gate insulating layer ( 101 ); and forming a gate electrode ( 4 ) in the first window ( 10 ). An orthogonal projection of the gate electrode ( 4 ) on the substrate ( 100 ) is in an orthogonal projection of the active layer ( 1 ) on the substrate ( 100 ).

Claim (Index 3):
The method according to  claim 2 , further comprising:\n forming a buffer layer over the light-blocking layer; wherein forming the semiconductor layer includes:\n forming an amorphous silicon layer over the buffer layer; and \n processing the amorphous silicon layer to form a polysilicon layer as the semiconductor layer.
