Abstract

An electronic component has electrically activatable layer, e.g. in electroluminescent layer of porous silicon on a body of which two multiarthogonal grids are buried. A conductive layer on the electrically activatable layer forms a drain and another conductor forms the source, the grid bars being independently energizable to form current channels through the electrically activatable layer.
