One embodiment of the present invention is a display device including a first insulating layer, a second insulating layer, a first transistor, a second transistor, a first light-emitting diode, a second light-emitting diode, and a color conversion layer. The first insulating layer is over the first transistor and the second transistor. The first light-emitting diode and the second light-emitting diode are over the first insulating layer. The color conversion layer is over the second light-emitting diode. The color conversion layer is configured to convert light emitted from the second light-emitting diode into a light having a longer wavelength. The first transistor and the second transistor each include a metal oxide layer and a gate electrode. The metal oxide layer includes a channel formation region. A top surface of the gate electrode is level or substantially level with a top surface of the second insulating layer.

After a sputtering gas is supplied to a deposition chamber, plasma including an ion of the sputtering gas is generated in the vicinity of a target. The ion of the sputtering gas is accelerated and collides with the target, so that flat-plate particles and atoms of the target are separated from the target. The flat-plate particles are deposited with a gap therebetween so that the flat plane faces a substrate. The atom and the aggregate of the atoms separated from the target enter the gap between the deposited flat-plate particles and grow in the plane direction of the substrate to fill the gap. A film is formed over the substrate. After the deposition, heat treatment is performed at high temperature in an oxygen atmosphere, which forms an oxide with a few oxygen vacancies and high crystallinity.

A transistor includes a multilayer film in which an oxide semiconductor film and an oxide film are stacked, a gate electrode, and a gate insulating film. The multilayer film overlaps with the gate electrode with the gate insulating film interposed therebetween. The multilayer film has a shape having a first angle between a bottom surface of the oxide semiconductor film and a side surface of the oxide semiconductor film and a second angle between a bottom surface of the oxide film and a side surface of the oxide film. The first angle is acute and smaller than the second angle. Further, a semiconductor device including such a transistor is manufactured.
