1. A method of forming an active device comprising acts of:
- depositing a dielectric layer on a substrate;
placing a polymer composite over at least a portion of the dielectric layer to form drain and source contacts, the polymer composite having a conducting filler; and
forming an organic semiconductor layer over at least a portion of the polymer composite, the organic semiconductor layer providing a channel between the drain and source contacts.
