Patent ID: 8383469

Claim:
A method of producing a transistor comprising: providing a substrate including in order a first electrically conductive material layer and a second electrically conductive material layer, the first electrically conductive material layer having a thickness; depositing a resist material layer over the second electrically conductive material layer; patterning the resist material layer to expose a portion of the second electrically conductive material layer; removing some of the second electrically conductive material layer to expose a portion of the first electrically conductive material layer; causing the second electrically conductive material layer to overhang the first electrically conductive material layer by removing some of the first electrically conductive material layer; conformally coating the second electrically conductive material layer, the first conductive material layer, and at least a portion of the substrate with an electrically insulating material layer, the electrically insulating material having a thickness, the thickness of the first electrically conductive layer being twice the thickness of the electrically insulating material layer; and conformally coating the electrically insulating material layer with a semiconductor material layer.
