摘要:
A method of fabricating a pixelated imager includes providing a substrate with bottom contact layer and sensing element blanket layers on the contact layer. The blanket layers are separated into an array of sensing elements by trenches isolating adjacent sensing elements. A sensing element electrode is formed adjacent each sensing element overlying a trench and defining a TFT. A layer of metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) material is formed on a dielectric layer overlying the electrodes and on an exposed upper surface of the blanket layers defining the sensing element adjacent each TFT. A layer of metal is deposited on each TFT and separated into source/drain electrodes on opposite sides of the sensing element electrode. The metal forming one of the S/D electrodes contacts the MOS material overlying the exposed surface of the semiconductor layer, whereby each sensing element in the array is electrically connected to the adjacent TFT by the MOS material.

A method of fabricating MOTFTs includes positioning opaque gate metal on a transparent substrate, depositing gate dielectric material overlying the gate metal and a surrounding area, and depositing metal oxide semiconductor material thereon. Etch stop material is deposited on the semiconductor material. Photoresist defines an isolation area in the semiconductor material. Exposing the photoresist from the rear surface of the substrate and removing exposed portions to leave the etch stop material uncovered except for a portion overlying and aligned with the gate metal. Etching uncovered portions of the semiconductor material to isolate the TFT. Using the photoresist, selectively etching the etch stop layer to leave a portion overlying and aligned with the gate metal and defining a channel area in the semiconductor material. Depositing and patterning conductive material to form source and drain areas.
摘要:
A fabrication method is used in conjunction with a semiconductor device having a metal oxide active layer less than 100nm thick and the upper major surface and the lower major surface have material in abutting engagement to form underlying interfaces and overlying interfaces. The method of fabrication includes controlling interfacial interactions in the underlying interfaces and the overlying interfaces to adjust the carrier density in the adjacent metal oxide by selecting a metal oxide for the metal oxide active layer and by selecting a specific material for the material in abutting engagement. The method also includes one or both steps of controlling interactions in underlying interfaces by surface treatment of an underlying material forming a component of the underlying interface and controlling interactions in overlying interfaces by surface treatment of the metal oxide film performed prior to deposition of material on the metal oxide layer.

A method of fabricating metal oxide TFTs on transparent substrates includes the steps of positioning an opaque gate metal area on the front surface of the substrate, depositing transparent gate dielectric and transparent metal oxide semiconductor layers overlying the gate metal and a surrounding area, depositing transparent passivation material on the semiconductor material, depositing photoresist on the passivation material, exposing and developing the photoresist to remove exposed portions, etching the passivation material to leave a passivation area defining a channel area, depositing transparent conductive material over the passivation area, depositing photoresist over the conductive material, exposing and developing the photoresist to remove unexposed portions, and etching the conductive material to leave source and drain areas on opposed sides of the channel area.

摘要:
An active matrix organic light emitting display includes a plurality of pixels with each pixel including at least one organic light emitting diode circuit. Each diode circuit producing a predetermined amount of light Im in response to power W applied to the circuit and including n organic light emitting diodes cascaded in series so as to increase voltage dropped across the cascaded diodes by the factor of n, where n is an integer greater than one. Each diode of the n organic light emitting diodes produces approximately 1/n of the predetermined amount of light Im so as to reduce current flowing in the diodes by 1/n. The organic light emitting diode circuit of each pixel includes a thin film transistor current driver with the cascaded diodes connected in the source/drain circuit so the current driver provides the current flowing in the diodes.
