Photolithography and etching steps for forming an island-shaped semiconductor layer are omitted, and a liquid crystal display device is manufactured with four photolithography steps: a step of forming a gate electrode (including a wiring formed using the same layer as the gate electrode), a step of forming source and drain electrodes (including a wiring formed using the same layer as the source and drain electrodes), a step of forming a contact hole (including the removal of an insulating layer and the like in a region other than the contact hole), and a step of forming a pixel electrode (including a wiring formed using the same layer as the pixel electrode). By the reduction in the number of photolithography steps, a liquid crystal display device can be provided at low cost and high productivity. Formation of a parasitic channel is prevented by an improvement in shape and potential of a wiring.
