Abstract
The present invention provides an array substrate, a method of fabricating the same, and a display module. The array substrate includes a substrate and a thin film transistor. An active layer of the thin film transistor includes: a first region including source and drain doped regions and a channel region; a second region surrounding at least a side of the channel region not in contact with the source and drain doped regions, and the first region forming a PN junction with the second region.
