Active matrix substrate and method of forming a contact hole in the same

摘要

A method for forming a contact hole in an active matrix substrate, the method comprising steps of: (a) depositing an insulating film covering a first electrode provided on a substrate and the substrate; (b) forming a contact hole by patterning said insulating film by means of dry etching; and (c) forming a second electrode, and contacting the second electrode with the first electrode; wherein in the step (b) after forming a contact hole by dry etching, a surface treatment by plasma etching or reactive ion etching with oxygen gas under a condition in which a pressure P is in a range of 100 Pa to 400 Pa is performed.
