A chemical bath deposition technique has been used in the fabrication of thin film transistors (TFT), which have been deposited on a 200mum polymer substrate. This thesis documents the chemistry and microfabrication techniques used to create the TFTs. Because TFTs have not been fabricated on plastics in this manner before, insights gained from understanding the mechanical properties of the polymer, and how these interact with those of the inorganic components of the TFTs, were used to guide development of processes specifically suited to adapt the polymer to TFT fabrication.
