Abstract
A display unit includes: a display layer including a pixel electrode; a semiconductor layer provided in a layer below the display layer, the semiconductor layer including a wiring layer that includes a material removable by an etchant by which the pixel electrode is also removable; and a terminal section configured to electrically connect the semiconductor layer to an external circuit, the terminal section including a first electrically-conductive layer made of a material same as a material of the wiring layer.
Claims19
A display unit comprising:
- a display layer including a pixel electrode;
- a semiconductor layer provided in a layer below the display layer, the semiconductor layer including a wiring layer that includes a material removable by an etchant by which the pixel electrode is also removable;
- and
- a terminal section configured to electrically connect the semiconductor layer to an external circuit, the terminal section including a first electrically-conductive layer made of a material same as a material of the wiring layer.
A method of manufacturing a display unit, the method comprising:
- forming a wiring layer in a semiconductor layer on a substrate, and forming a first electrically-conductive layer in a terminal section, the first electrically-conductive layer being made of a material same as a material of the wiring layer;
- forming, as a continuous film, a pixel electrode on the semiconductor layer and the first electrically-conducive layer, the pixel electrode configuring a display layer, and the pixel electrode being made of a material removable by an etchant by which the wiring layer is also removable;
- and
- removing part or all of the pixel electrode on the first electrically-conducive layer to from the terminal section.
An electronic apparatus with a display unit, the display unit comprising:
- a display layer including a pixel electrode;
- a semiconductor layer provided in a layer below the display layer, the semiconductor layer including a wiring layer that includes a material removable by an etchant by which the pixel electrode is also removable;
- and
- a terminal section configured to electrically connect the semiconductor layer to an external circuit, the terminal section including a first electrically-conductive layer made of a material same as a material of the wiring layer.
