Abstract

A substrate assembly includes: a substrate; a first transistor disposed on the substrate, wherein the first transistor includes a first semiconductor layer and the first semiconductor layer is a silicon semiconductor layer; and a second transistor disposed on the substrate, wherein the second transistor includes a second semiconductor layer and a drain electrode electrically connected to the second semiconductor layer, and the second semiconductor layer is an oxide semiconductor layer, wherein the first semiconductor layer of the first transistor is electrically insulated from the drain electrode of the second transistor.
