Abstract
A device comprising: a stack of layers defining an array of transistors, wherein the stack of layers includes a surface conductor pattern defining (i) an array of gate conductors each providing the gate electrodes for a respective column of transistors, and (ii) an array of pixel conductors, each pixel conductor associated with a respective transistor, and connected via a semiconductor channel of the respective transistor to one of an array of row conductors, each row conductor associated with a respective row of transistors; wherein each gate conductor is configured to extend substantially completely around the pixel conductors of the respective column of transistors associated with the gate conductor.
