An object of the present invention is to crystallize and activate the doped amorphous semiconductor layer at the same time. It is also an object to provide the TFT with good electrical connection between the source or drain electrodes and the semiconductor layer.The inventive method of fabricating TFT for a liquid crystal display device, includes forming a buffer layer on a substrate; forming an amorphous semiconductor layer on the whole buffer layer, the semiconductor layer having a channel region and source and drain ohmic contact regions, each positioned at opposing ends of the channel region; doping n<->(or p<+>) ions on the source and drain ohmic contact regions of the semiconductor layer while covering the channel region with a photoresist; patterning the semiconductor layer to have an island shape, the island shape including the channel region and the source and drain ohmic contact regions; irradiating laser beams on the semiconductor layer having the island shape, thereby crystallizing and activating the semiconductor layer; forming a first insulating layer on the semiconductor layer; forming a gate electrode on the first insulating layer; forming a second insulating layer on the first insulating layer while covering the gate electrode; forming source and drain contact holes penetrating both the first and second insulating layers to the source and drain ohmic contact regions of the semiconductor layer, respectively; and forming the source and drain electrodes on the second insulating layer, while the source and drain electrodes having electrical connection to the source and drain ohmic contact regions of the semiconductor layer.
