    摘要: This invention is related to a thin film transistor (TFT) array and method of making same, for use in an active matrix liquid crystal display (AMLCD) having a high pixel aperture ratio. The TFT array and corresponding display are made by forming the TFTs and corresponding address lines on a substrate, coating the address lines and TFTs with a photo-imageable insulating layer which acts as a negative resist, exposing portions of the insulating layer with UV light which are to remain on the substrate, removing non-exposed areas of the insulating layer so as to form contact vias, and depositing pixel electrodes on the substrate over the insulating layer so that the pixel electrodes contact respective TFT source electrodes through the contact vias. The resulting display has an increased pixel aperture ratio because the pixel electrodes are formed over the insulating layer so as to overlap portions of the array address lines.

    摘要: An image sensor. The image sensor array includes a substrate. An interconnect structure is formed adjacent to the substrate. An amorphous silicon electrode layer is adjacent to the interconnect structure. The amorphous silicon electrode layer includes electrode ion implantation regions between pixel electrode regions. The pixel electrode regions define cathodes of an array of image sensors. The electrode ion implantation regions provide physical isolation between the pixel electrode regions. The cathodes are electrically connected to the interconnect structure. An amorphous silicon I-layer is adjacent to the amorphous silicon electrode layer. The amorphous silicon I-layer forms an inner layer of each of the image sensors. A transparent electrode layer is formed adjacent to the image sensors. An inner surface of the transparent electrode is electrically connected to anodes of the image sensors and the interconnect structure. The amorphous silicon I-layer region can further include I-layer ion implantation regions that provide physical isolation between the inner layers of the image sensors. The I-layer ion implantation regions align with the electrode ion implantation regions. An amorphous silicon P-layer can be formed adjacent to the amorphous silicon I-layer. The amorphous silicon P-layer forms an outer layer of each of the image sensors. The amorphous silicon P-layer region can include P-layer ion implantation regions that provide physical isolation between the outer layers of the image sensors.
