Abstract
A method of making an electronic matrix array atop a non-conductive surface is disclosed. The method includes forming a first set of address lines on the non-conductive surface, depositing continuous layers of semiconductor materials atop the non-conductive surface and the first set of address lines to form a continuous selection means structure, and forming a second set of address lines over the selection means structure. In accordance with one preferred embodiment, the first set of address lines are formed by depositing a continuous layer of material which is convertible from an initially deposited non-conductive state to a conductive state responsive to the impingement of actinic radiation thereon and exposing selected portions of said convertible to actinic radiation.
