Abstract
A circuit-on-wire (CoW) is provided that is made from a flexible metal wire with an outer surface, and a plurality of discrete electrical control devices formed in series along the metal wire outer surface. Each control device may have an electrical contact accessible through the metal wire. In one aspect, the control device may have a via through the metal wire from the top surface to the bottom surface with a second electrical contact accessible through the via. In addition, the control devices may have a top surface with an accessible third electrical contact. For example, the control device may be a first thin-film transistor (TFT), with a gate electrode accessible through the metal wire, wherein the second electrical contact is a first source/drain (S/D) electrode, and wherein the third electrical contact is a second S/D electrode. Using the above-described CoW, a woven active matrix array can be fabricated.
