Abstract

A display device with a substrate, a terminal portion, and the terminal portion have at least a portion formed with a first transparent conductive film and a second transparent conductive film, and the first transparent conductive film is exposed from the second transparent conductive film at a part of the portion, and crystallinity of the first transparent conductive film is higher than that of the second transparent conductive film.

Claims (10)

1. A manufacturing method of a display device comprising the steps of:

forming a first transparent conductive film on a terminal portion forming region of a substrate;

forming an insulation film on at least the first transparent conductive film;

forming a semiconductor layer on a region of the substrate other than the terminal portion forming region;

forming a protective film on the insulation film;

exposing a portion of the first transparent conductive film in the terminal portion forming region of the substrate;

forming a second transparent conductive film on a part of the exposed first transparent conductive film, a part of the insulation film and a part of the protective film; and

performing a thermal treatment on the second transparent conductive film.

2. A manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein the step in which the thermal treatment is performed is conducted also for an orientation film baking step.

3. A manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein a highest temperature of the thermal treatment is in a range from 150° C. to 250° C.
