There are disclosed liquid crystal displays each having at least one pixel element formed on an insulative substrate including at least two conductive electrodes and liquid crystal display material disposed between the electrodes. The pixel elements further include at least a pair of isolation devices formed from a deposited semiconductor material which facilitates selective excitation of the pixel elements and applied potential reversal across the electrodes during alternate display frames. The isolation devices can include a plurality of series connected diodes. The isolation devices can be formed as diode rings. A method of making the displays is also disclosed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION We claim: 1.
A method of making a display of the type including at least one pixel including at least one pair of isolation devices, said method comprising the steps of: (A) providing an insulative substrate having a conductive layer thereover; (B) depositing a first metal layer over said conductive layer; (C) depositing a first doped semiconductor layer over said first metal layer; (D) depositing a substantially intrinsic semiconductor layer over said first doped layer; (E) depositing a second doped semiconductor layer over said intrinsic layer, said second doped layer being opposite in conductivity with respect to said first doped layer; (F) depositing a second metal layer over said second doped semiconductor layer; (G) removing portions of said second metal layer for providing discrete portions of said second metal layer to define the location of said isolation devices; (H) removing portions of said semiconductor layers while using at least said second metal discrete portions as a mask to form said isolation devices; (I) removing portions of said first metal layer to form a first address lead with at least one of said isolation devices electrically connected thereto; (J) removing portions of said conductive layer to form a first pixel electrode with the other of said isolation devices electrically connected thereto; (K) forming an interconnect lead to electrically couple said at least one isolation device on the side thereof opposite said first address lead to said first pixel electrode; (L) forming a second address lead insulated from said first address lead and electrically coupled to said at least one other isolation device on the side thereof opposite said first pixel electrode; (M) forming a second pixel electrode spaced from and substantially parallel to said first pixel electrode; and (N) applying light influencing material between said pixel electrodes.
2.
A method as defined in claim 1, wherein the conductive layer provided in step (A) is transparent.
3.
A method as defined in claim 1, wherein step (M) is performed by forming a transparent second pixel electrode
