Transparent conductive coatings made by electrochemical and physicochemical methods

New methods of transparent conductive electrodes fabrication are presented. The electrochemical anodization of aluminum is a key component for methods to make metal electrodes. It allows to produce the holey aluminum electrode (method 1) and holey alumina mask as a pattern for metal electrode deposition with its further transferring to adhesive substrate (method 2). The 80% average transmission for range 300-1000nm and 10-20Ω/□ sheet resistance is achieved. Electroconductive films made of organosilicon compounds are investigated too. © 2013 Society for Information Display.
