摘要:
A solid state image pickup device having a plurality of solid state elements in a two-dimensional array so as to form picture cells. Each solid state element includes a photoelectric converting element and a switching field effect transistor to permit scanning of the elements by scanners. To counteract noise and blooming, a second field effect transistor acting as an amplifier is connected between the photoelectric converting element and the switching field effect transistor. A third field effect transistor is coupled to the photoelectric converting element for resetting the same.

A thin film phototransistor is provided having a field effect transistor structure where at least one end of the gate electrode is not overlapped with an electrode neighboring the end. Such a thin film phototransistor has: (1) a function as a photosensor and a switching function; (2) a high input impedance; (3) a voltage control function; and (4) a high photocurrent ON/OFF ratio. This thin film phototransistor can be used independently or together with a thin film transistor for picture elements of a one-dimensional or two-dimensional photosensor array, producing satisfactory results.

In forming a selective oxidation mask to a desired region on the aluminum pattern with a positive type photoresist, for the anodic oxidation, an angle (.theta.) formed between the selective oxidation mask and the aluminum pattern is made as: .beta..gtoreq.110-20T(T: film thickness of the positive type photoresist). The photoresist is subjected to a heat treatment prior to and after exposure, preferably the after-treatment being performed before developing. The anodic oxidation film is heat-treated after formation, to reduce the leak current.
摘要:
In a first manufacturing step of an active matrix liquid-crystal panel, a transparent conductor film and a metal film are sequentially accumulated on a substrate in this order so as to form a two-layer film. The two-layer film including the transparent conductor film and the metal film is subjected to photoetching to simultaneously form at least a pixel electrode (transparent conductor film) and a gate electrode (metal film) of a thin-film transistor according to a predetermined pattern. In a fabrication process near the end of the fabrication, when the source and drain electrodes of the thin-film transistors are formed, the metal film on the pixel electrode is simultaneously removed. Since the removal of the metal film protecting the pixel electrode is simultaneously achieved at a point near the final process, protection of the pixel electrode is guaranteed, thereby realizing improvement of the yielding and reduction of the production process.
摘要:
A photosensor comprises an insulating substrate, an electrode, a photoconductor layer composed of a hydrogenated amorphous silicon semiconductor layer obtained by the glow discharge decomposition of monosilane gas, a junction stabilizing layer composed of a boron-containing hydrogenated amorphous silicon semiconductor which is obtained by the glow discharge decomposition of a mixed gas of monosilane and diborane, a transparent electrode and a transparent protective layer, these elements being laminated in that order. The insertion of the junction stabilizing layer between the photoconductor layer and the transparent electrode greatly improves the dark current characteristic. The electrode, the photoconductor layer and the junction stabilizing layer can be divided in correspondence with each picture element, thereby improving the resolution of the photosensor.
