Printed dopant layers
First Claim
1. An electronic device, comprising:
- a) a substrate;
b) a plurality of first semiconductor islands on the substrate, the first semiconductor islands containing a first diffusible dopant;
c) a plurality of second semiconductor islands on the substrate, the second semiconductor islands containing a second diffusible dopant different from said first diffusible dopant;
d) a first dielectric film on said first subset of said semiconductor islands, said first dielectric film containing said first diffusible dopant and substantially free of said second diffusible dopant;
e) a second dielectric film on said second semiconductor islands and laterally adjacent to said first dielectric film, said second dielectric layer film containing said second diffusible dopant and substantially free of said first diffusible dopant; and
f) a metal layer in electrical contact with said first and second semiconductor islands.

Abstract
An electronic device, including a substrate, a plurality of first semiconductor islands on the substrate, a plurality of second semiconductor islands on the substrate, a first dielectric film on the first subset of the semiconductor islands, second dielectric film on the second semiconductor islands, and a metal layer in electrical contact with the first and second semiconductor islands. The first semiconductor islands and the first dielectric film contain a first diffusible dopant, and the second semiconductor islands and the second dielectric layer film contain a second diffusible dopant different from the first diffusible dopant. The present electronic device can be manufactured using printing technologies, thereby enabling high-throughput, low-cost manufacturing of electrical circuits on a wide variety of substrates.
