In the present invention, a lower electrode is utilized as a photomask to
form a liquid-repellent region having a generally same pattern shape as
that of the lower electrode and a liquid-attracting region having a
generally reversed pattern shape on an insulating film. A conductive ink
is coated and calcined in the liquid-attracting region to form an upper
electrode having a generally reversed pattern shape to the lower
electrode in a self-aligned manner, eliminating the occurrence of
misregistration even when a printing method is used. Consequently,
semiconductor devices such as an active matrix thin film transistor
substrate can be formed using a printing method.
