Abstract
A method and structures to achieve improved TFTs and high fill-factor pixel circuits are provided. This system relies on the fact that jet-printed lines have print accuracy, which means the location and the definition of the printed lines and dots is high. The edge of a printed line is well defined if the printing conditions are optimized. This technique utilizes the accurate definition and placement of the edges of printed lines of conductors and insulators to define small features and improved structures.
