Abstract From the Canadian patent

RD-19,360, IMPROVED INSULATOR STRUCTURE FOR AMORPHOUS SILICON THIN-FILM TRANSISTORS, A thin-film field-effect-transistor (TFT) includes a gate electrode disposed on a substrate; a first thick layer of silicon nitride is disposed on the substrate and over the gate electrode and a second thinner layer of silicon nitride is disposed on the first layer. The first silicon nitride layer has a silicon-to-nitrogen concentration ratio selected to provide optimum structural characteristics such as high, density, high dielectric strength low etch rate and the, like, to the resulting TFT while the second silicon nitride layer has a silicon-to-nitrogen concentration ratio selected to provide a good …

Why it's free to use

  • Filed July 12, 1990. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended July 12, 2010.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by July 12, 2012.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
