  • Abstract
    This paper describes the steps taken in the optimization of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) nonlinear devices for use in multiplexed liquid crystal displays. Circuit modeling and computer simulations were used to establish the capacitance and current versus voltage characteristics of the ideal MIM. By controlling processing parameters such as nitrogen doping and anodization voltage, device characteristics can be brought into the optimum range.
