Abstract
A method for forming an electronic device having a semiconducting active layer comprising a polymer, the method comprising aligning the chains of the polymer parallel to each other by bringing the polymer into a liquid-crystalline phase.

A method for forming a transistor comprising the step of forming an active interface of the transistor between a semiconductive layer and a gate insulator layer by solution deposition of a second polymer layer on top of a solution-processed polymer layer that has not been converted into an insoluble form prior to the deposition of the second polymer layer.
