    摘要: A technique comprising: processing a plastics film in situ on a first carrier; thereafter removing the processed plastics film from the first carrier; subjecting the processed plastics film to one or more quality checks; and following a determination that the processed plastics film meets one or more predetermined quality criteria, bonding the processed plastics film to a second carrier; further processing the processed plastics film in situ on the second carrier; and thereafter debonding the further processed plastics film from the second carrier using a process having a higher yield than that of the process of removing the processed plastics film from the first carrier.

    摘要: A device including a stack of layers defining a first conductor pattern at a first level of the stack and one or more semiconductor channels in respective regions, connecting a pair of parts of the first conductor pattern, and capacitively coupled via a dielectric to a coupling conductor of a second conductor pattern at a second level of the stack. The stack includes at least two insulator patterns over which the first level or second level conductor patterns is formed. A first insulator pattern occupies one or more semiconductor channel regions to provide the dielectric. The second insulator pattern defines one or more windows in the one or more semiconductor channel regions through which the second conductor pattern contacts the first insulator pattern other than via the second insulator pattern. The second insulator pattern overlaps the first insulator pattern outside the one or more semiconductor channel regions.

    摘要: A technique, comprising: forming in situ on a support substrate: a first metal layer; a light-absorbing layer after the first metal layer; a conductor pattern after the light-absorbing layer; and a semiconductor layer after the conductor pattern; patterning the semiconductor layer using a resist mask to form a semiconductor pattern defining one or more semiconductor channels of one or more semiconductor devices; and patterning the light-absorbing layer using the resist mask and the conductor pattern, so as to selectively retain the light-absorbing layer in regions that are occupied by at least one of the resist mask and the conductor pattern.

    摘要: Method for forming an organic polymer insulator over a first conductor pattern defining a first level of conductors for a thin-film transistor device. A first conductor layer is formed over the organic polymer insulator and a second conductor layer formed over the first conductor layer. The second conductor layer is patterned to define a second level of conductors by exposing the second conductor layer to liquid etchant in selected regions to form a second conductor pattern. The first conductor layer may be located in the selected regions and the first conductor layer and the organic polymer insulator may comprise surface materials that exhibit a substantially zero etch rate for the liquid etchant. The first conductor layer may be less permeable to the liquid etchant than the organic polymer insulator and/or more resistant to damage by the liquid etchant than the organic polymer insulator may be patterned.

    摘要: A transistor device comprising: source and drain conductors connected by a semiconductor channel; and a gate conductor capacitively coupled to the semiconductor channel via a gate dielectric; wherein the gate conductor comprises at least one portion overlapping at least part of at least one of said source and drain conductors; and further comprising a patterned insulator interposed between at least part of said at least one of the source and drain conductors and said at least one overlapping portion of said gate conductor so as to reduce capacitive coupling between the said at least one of the source and drain conductors and the gate conductor by more than any reduction in capacitive coupling between the semiconductor channel and the gate conductor.
