Low temperature a-Si:H photodiodes and flexible image sensor arrays patterned by digital lithography

• Applied Physics Letters

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon-based image sensor arrays were fabricated on polyethylene naphthalate substrates, with photodiodes optimized for process temperatures of 150C. Patterning of the thin-film transistor backplane was accomplished using ink-jet printed etch masks. A flexible image sensor is demonstrated with 75 dpi resolution over 180 x 180 pixels and with sensitivity of 1.2pW/cm^2.
