ELECTRODE MEANS, WITH OR WITHOUT FUNCTIONAL ELEMENTS AND AN ELECTRODE DEVICE FORMED OF SAID MEANS

摘要

In an electrode means for addressing of a functional element (7) there is between a first (1) and a second (2) electrode provided a layer (4) of electrical isolating material such that the electrodes (1, 2) intersect each other without direct physical or electrical contact and form a bridge structure. Over both electrodes (1, 2) a contact layer (10) of an conducting or semiconducting material is provided and contacts both electrodes (1, 2) electrically. In an electrode means with detecting, information storing and/or information indicating function a functional element (7) with passive electrical addressing of the functional element is provided. The functional element (7) is provided adjacent to or in the intersection between the electrodes (1, 2) and may constitute a sensor element or an information storing and/or an information indicating element. The contact layer (3) forms a patterned or integrated a global contact layer and contacts both electrode layers electrically, and comprises an isotropic semiconductive or conductive polymer. Use in an optical or electronic camera, in a chemical camera, in an electrically addressable memory device or electrically addressable data processing device, and in an electrically addressable display device.
