Abstract:
1. An apparatus comprising: a first electrode and a region of polymeric material in contact with the first electrode, wherein the first electrode comprises a first silicide region in direct contact with the region of polymeric material; and a second electrode in contact with the region of polymeric material, the region of polymeric material being arranged between the first electrode and the second electrode and forming an active area of an electronic device; wherein the second electrode further comprises a second silicide region in contact with the region of polymeric material; wherein the first electrode and the second electrode comprise a first poly-silicon region and a second polysilicon region, respectively; wherein the first and said second silicide regions coat, respectively, the first and second polysilicon regions and are arranged, as an interface, between the first and second polysilicon regions and the region of polymeric material; and wherein the first and second polysilicon regions have different doping levels and different work functions.
