PRODUCTION OF ELECTRONIC DEVICES

摘要

A method of producing one or more elements of an electronic device, including the steps of: providing a substrate including one or more underlying elements of the electronic device and a thermally patternable layer overlying said one or more underlying elements; and using said one or more underlying elements to locally generate heat and thereby selectively induce a change in corresponding portions of said thermally patternable layer; and wherein either the change selectively induced in said corresponding portions directly results in the definition of one or more elements of the electronic device in a position determined by that of said one or more underlying elements, or alternatively including the additional step of using the change selectively induced in one or more corresponding portions to facilitate the formation of one or more elements of the electronic device in a position determined by that of said one or more underlying elements,
