摘要:
A thin film transistor array comprises an insulative substrate, a plurality of pixel electrodes arranged in a matrix on the insulative substrate, a plurality of thin film transistors connected respectively to the pixel electrodes, a plurality of address lines formed on the insulative substrate, each address line being connected to a plurality of control electrodes of the thin film transistors, and a plurality of data lines arranged on the insulative substrate in such a manner as to intersect the address lines, each data line being connected to a plurality of data input electrodes of the thin film transistors. A short-wiring is formed on the outside of a display region on the insulative substrate on which the pixel electrodes are arranged, and the short-wiring is connected to at least two of the address lines and the data lines by a two-terminal element having non-linear resistance characteristics defining voltage/current characteristics on the basis of a space charge limited current.

A thin-film transistor matrix comprises thin-film transistors formed on a dielectric substrate and arranged in rows and columns. Each of the transistors comprises a control electrode, an insulation film formed on the control electrode, a semiconductor film formed on the insulation film, a first main electrode formed on the semiconductor film, and a second main electrode formed on the semiconductor film. Row interconnection layers are provided for the respective rows to interconnect the control electrodes of the transistors of the respective rows. Column interconnection layers are provided for the respective columns to interconnect the first main electrodes in the respective columns. The insulation film and the semiconductor film are formed in the regions where the transistor is formed and in the regions where the column interconnection layer is formed.

A TFT matrix for an active matrix display panel has a plurality of TFTs arranged in rows and columns to form a matrix array. Each of the TFT has a control electrode on a dielectric substrate, a first insulator film formed on the control electrode, a second insulator film formed on the first insulator film, a-Si semiconductor layer formed on the second insulator film, and first and second (drain and source) electrodes formed on the a-Si semiconductor layer. The matrix has a plurality of transparent electrodes that contact the second electrodes, row interconnection layers interconnecting the control electrodes of the TFTs of the respective rows, and column interconnection layers interconnecting the first electrodes of the TFTs of the respective columns. The control electrodes and the row interconnection layers (gate electrodes) are made of an alloy of tantalum with tungsten, nickel, cobalt, rhodium, or iridium. The first insulator is formed by anodizing the surface of the gate electrode. The gate electrode has low resistance, improving the quality of the display without impairing insulation performance.
摘要:
An end facet light emitting type LED has a slanted light emitting side wall relative to a substrate surface. A method for manufacturing end facet light emitting type light emitting devices prevents the pn-junction regions of the devices from being damaged while a semiconductor wafer is diced to separate light emitting devices from one another. A recess is formed on the semiconductor wafer having a depth which is deeper than the pn-junction. A portion to be cut during dicing of the wafer is vertically and horizontally separated from the pn-junction regions, so that if cracks occur when the wafer is diced, the cracks do not affect the light emitting characteristics of the devices.

摘要:
A light-emitting array and its driving circuitry are integrated into a single device. The driving circuitry is formed in a semiconductor substrate and has an array of output terminals on a surface of the substrate. Organic electroluminescent elements are formed directly over the output terminals, in electrical contact with the output terminals. The electroluminescent elements are driven by direct current. An optical head assembly has one or more of these light-emitting arrays mounted on a printed circuit board.

An optical filter is manufactured by placing a photosensitive optical fiber in a spiral arrangement on a fiber holder, preferably having a spiral groove for holding the fiber, and exposing the fiber to ultraviolet light through a phase mask having a spiral diffraction grating, forming an in-fiber Bragg grating. The fiber can be conveniently scanned by an ultraviolet beam as the fiber holder and phase mask turn on a rotating stage. The fiber can be compactly packaged between the fiber holder and a cover. The fiber holder and cover can be formed by coating a substrate with layers of polymer material, the spiral groove being formed by photolithographic patterning of one of the layers.

A plurality of address wiring layers and a plurality of data wiring layers are arranged to cross each other at a right angle. TFTs are respectively arranged at the intersections between the address wiring layers and the data wiring layers. The gate electrode of each TFT is connected to an address wiring layer for each row. The drain electrode of each TFT is connected to a data wiring layer for each column. Display electrodes are respectively arranged in the regions defined by the address wiring layers and the data wiring layers, and are connected to the source electrodes of the TFTs arranged in the respective regions. The data wiring layers and the source and drain electrodes of the TFTs each comprise the first layer serving as an ohmic barrier layer for a semiconductor layer, the second layer forming of a conductive material and serving as a main signal wiring layer, and the third layer serving as a battery reaction preventing layer.
摘要:
In a thin-film transistor fabrication process using an amorphous silicon semiconductor layer, after the gate insulation layer is formed and before the a-Si semiconductor layer is formed, the surface of the gate insulation layer is treated with an H.sub.2 plasma. This treatment improves the transistor characteristics.
