A TFT of the present invention includes a gate electrode, a gate
insulating film and a first semiconductor film which are sequentially
formed on an insulating substrate, a second semiconductor film including
a high density impurity which is formed on the first semiconductor film
while being separated into portions at grade and a first electrode and a
second electrode, each of which is formed on the separated second
semiconductor film. Further, a peripheral portion of the first
semiconductor film includes a protruded portion toward the outside from
an edge of the second semiconductor film, and a surface of the protruded
portion is roughened. By roughening the surface of the protruded portion,
an on-current of the TFT can be maintained and the leakage current can be
suppressed.
