The invention relates to a method for forming a uniform silicide film using a crystalline semiconductor film in which orientation of crystal planes is controlled, and a method for manufacturing a thin film transistor with less variation in electric characteristics, which is formed over an insulating substrate using the silicide film. A semiconductor film over which a cap film is formed is irradiated with a laser to be crystallized under the predetermined condition, so that a crystalline semiconductor film including large grain crystals in which orientation of crystal planes is controlled in one direction is formed. The crystalline semiconductor film is used for silicide, whereby a uniform silicide film can be formed. |
