A method of making a high performance, small area thin film transistor having a drain region, an insulating layer, and a source region forming a non-coplanar surface with respect to a substrate is disclosed. The insulative layer is formed in between the source and drain regions. A deposited semiconductor overlies the non-coplanar surface to form a current conduction channel between the drain and source. A gate insulator and gate electrode overly at least a portion of the deposited semiconductor adjacent thereto. The non-coplanar surface can be formed by utilizing a dry process to simultaneously etch through several layers in a continuous one-step process. A second dielectric layer may be formed above the three previous layers. This decouples the gate electrode from the source region by creating two capacitances in series, thereby limiting the capacitance between the gate electrode and the source region.

Light influencing displays and more particularly liquid crystal displays are disclosed which have a pair of light transmissive electrode supports which are uniformly spaced apart by a predetermined distance over the entire display area. The electrode supports are spaced apart by spacer means including a plurality of spacers arranged in a predetermined pattern between the electrode supports.
摘要:
A method of forming a large area electronic element, e.g., a large area integrated microelectronic circuit which has at least one dimension in excess of three inches, by forming a film of photoresist separate from a surface to be etched, and thereafter depositing the film of photoresist on the surface to be etched. The deposited photoresist film is then exposed to actinic radiation and developed, and the exposed, underlying surface may thereafter be etched.The method for depositing the photoresist involves passing a viscous liquid composed of photoresist and solvent under positive pressure through a very thin elongated orifice that extends across and in close proximity to (e.g., 0.01 inch or less), but spaced apart from the surface to be processed to form a very thin flexible continuous film of liquid photoresist composition issuing from the orifice. The surface to be processed is linearly moved past the orifice so as to deposit the issued film of photoresist on the surface, in a thickness no greater than 100 microns, and preferably much less. The wet deposited film is then heated to drive off the solvent thereby reducing the thickness of the photoresist. The method disclosed herein is particularly suitable for processing large area rectangular substrates and continuous flexible substrates used in roll-to-roll processing equipment.
