Abstract:
A TFT device is manufactured starting from a substrate with mutually insulated elongated strips of semi-conductor material. A stack of layers over the strips on the substrate, the stack comprising a gate electrode layer. A multi-level resist layer is provided over the gate electrode layer. The multi-level resist layer defines gate and source drain regions, the channel running in parallel with the direction of the strips. Gate portions in the resist layer cross source drain regions in the resist layer, overreaching the source drain regions on either side at least by a distance corresponding to a pitch of the strips.

Claim (Index 8):
A semi-conductor device comprising a thin film transistor, the device comprising\n a substrate a plurality of elongated strips of semi-conductor material on the substrate, each of the strips extending in a first direction; a gate electrode above the strips in a gate area that extends in a second direction transverse to the first direction over said plurality of the strips, the strips having first parts that extend on respective sides of the gate area along said first direction, a conductivity of the first parts of said strips having an enhanced conductivity compared to second parts of said strips that lie under the gate area, the gate area overreaching the strips in said second direction on both sides of said plurality of strips by a distance corresponding to at least a pitch of the strips; a gate insulation area between the strips and the gate electrode in said gate area, aligned with the gate area; a source contact and a drain contact on the first parts of the strips on the respective sides of the gate area along said first direction.
