US Patent 10461101 Semiconductor device and manufacturing method thereof

A semiconductor device with high aperture ratio is provided. The semiconductor device includes a transistor and a capacitor having a pair of electrodes. An oxide semiconductor layer formed over the same insulating surface is used for a channel formation region of the transistor and one of the electrodes of the capacitor. The other electrode of the capacitor is a transparent conductive film. One electrode of the capacitor is electrically connected to a wiring formed over the insulating surface over which a source electrode or a drain electrode of the transistor is provided, and the other electrode of the capacitor is electrically connected to one of the source electrode and the drain electrode of the transistor.
