An LDD region of a TFT is formed to have a concentration gradient of an impurity element for controlling conductivity which becomes higher as the distance from a drain region decreases. In order to form such an LDD region having a concentration gradient of an impurity element, the present invention uses a method in which a gate electrode having a taper portion is provided to thereby dope an ionized impurity element for controlling conductivity accelerated in the electric field so that it penetrates through the gate electrode and a gate insulating film into a semiconductor layer. | 04-23-2009 |

A silicon nitride film is formed on gate electrodes and on gate wiring extending from the gate electrodes. Substantially triangular regions are formed out of an insulator over side surfaces of the gate electrodes and of the gate wiring. The presence of these substantially triangular side walls make milder the steps at which the second wiring goes over the gate wiring. This suppresses breakage of the second wiring. | 05-28-2009 |
