Patent ID: 7553765

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a thin-film electronic device, comprising: forming a first electrically conductive layer over a base; forming a first opening so as to obtain a first main portion and a first island from the first electrically conductive layer; providing a dielectric layer including a second opening, on the first main portion and filling the first opening with the dielectric layer; forming a second electrically conductive layer including a third opening, a second main portion, and a second island which is separated from the second main portion by the third opening, so as to cover at least part of the dielectric layer, and in order that the second main portion contacts with the first island of the first electrically conductive layer at a first contact region, and in order that the second island contacts with the first main portion and fills the second opening at a second contact region; forming a fourth opening at the first contact region of the second main portion and the first island; forming a fifth opening at the second contact region of the first main portion and the second island; forming a first through-hole extending through the base to be in communicative connection with the fourth opening, which is hollow after forming the fourth opening at the first contact region; and forming a second through-hole extending through the base to be in communicative connection with the fifth opening which is hollow after forming the fifth opening at the second contact region.
