Thin film transistor and method for fabricating same

摘要

A method for fabricating a thin film transistor having a substrate includes the steps of forming a gate electrode on the substrate and forming a gate insulating layer on the gate electrode and the substrate. Source and drain electrodes are formed having side surfaces facing each other on the gate insulating layer. An active layer is formed over the source and drain electrodes and the gate insulating layer. A silicide layer is formed on at least one of the side surfaces of the source and drain electrodes.
