Abstract

A method is provided for fabricating a high resistance row (or column) electrode with which a low resistance runner is associated. The electrode is formed, preferably from a substantially transparent material, and a low resistant (i.e., highly conductive material) is disposed thereon. The highly conductive material is subsequently etched such that the highly conductive material remains along the sides of the electrode, thereby reducing the resistivity of the electrode.
