                  1.  A process comprising:                                                            
                  creating a dispersion including:  (a) a continuous phase                             
            comprising a solvent, a binder resin at least substantially

            group consisting of a micro-electronic device and a nano-                                  
            electronic device, wherein the semiconductor layer comprises the                           
            organic semiconductor material and the binder resin.
