ABSTRACT:
A dry-etched amorphous silicon device which includes an amorphous silicon layer between upper and lower electrodes wherein the adverse effects of dangling silicon bonds on the periphery of the amorphous silicon layer are avoided by cutting back the peripheral surface of at least one of the electrodes to be radially inward of the peripheral surface of the amorphous silicon layer by at least one micron with respect to an axis of the device.
