Thin film transistor, method of fabricating the same, and organic light emitting diode display device including the thin film transistor

摘要

A thin film transistor (TFT), a method of fabricating the same, and an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display device having the TFT. The TFT includes: a substrate; a polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) semiconductor layer disposed on the substrate, including source, drain, and channel regions, a crystallization-inducing metal, first gettering sites disposed on opposing edges of the semiconductor layer, and a second gettering site spaced apart from the first gettering sites; a gate insulating layer disposed on the semiconductor layer; a gate electrode disposed on the gate insulating layer; an interlayer insulating layer disposed on the gate electrode; and source and drain electrodes disposed on the interlayer insulating layer and electrically connected to the source and drain regions of the semiconductor layer.
