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.
