PHOTOSENSORS INCLUDING SEMICONDUCTOR-ON-INSULATOR STRUCTURE

摘要

Photosensor based on SOI technology and display devices comprising the same. The photosensor can be a photodiode or a phototransistor, or a combination thereof when incorporated in a device. The photosensor exhibits a higher photoresponse than a traditional photosensor based on amorphous silicon film or polysilicon thin film technology. The present invention is useful, e.g., in making multifunctional display devices having photosensing function integrated therein.
