Abstract
Disclosed herein is an electronic device of a three-terminal type including, a control electrode, first and second electrodes, and an active layer provided between the first and second electrodes so as to face the control electrode with an insulating layer interposed therebetween, the active layer being formed from an aggregate of a composite material formed from inorganic semiconductor fine particles covered with a protective layer, the protective layer including an alkyl chain having, at one end thereof, a functional group bonded to an inorganic semiconductor fine particle and further having an organic semiconductor molecule bonded to the other end thereof.
Claims24
