          Application No. 10/084,723                                                  

               1.  A flexible matrix array device comprising                          
                    a thin film matrix circuit carried on the surface of              
               a flexible substrate                                                   
                         which matrix circuit includes:                               
                    semiconductor devices arranged in a regular                       
               array and occupying respective first areas of the substrate,           
               and                                                                    
                    pixel electrodes correspondingly coupled to                       
               each of the semiconductor devices and occupying respective             
               second areas of the substrate;                                         
                    wherein                                                           
                    the substrate is configured such that flexing of the              
               substrate occurs more readily at the second areas than at              
               the first areas.                                                       
               2.  A curved matrix array device comprising                            
                    a thin film matrix circuit carried on the surface of a            
               substrate                                                              
                         which matrix circuit includes:                               
                    semiconductor devices arranged in a regular                       
               array and occupying respective first areas of the substrate,           
               and                                                                    
                    pixel electrodes correspondingly coupled to                       
               each of the semiconductor devices and occupying respective             
               second areas of the substrate;                                         
                    wherein                                                           
               the substrate is configured such that curvature of the                 
               device is accommodated substantially by deformation at the             
               substrate at the second areas.                                         

                                          2
