Description

General description

Indium tin oxide (ITO) is widely used as transparent conducting oxides. Its major characteristics are electrical conductivity, optical transparency and the ease to be deposited as films.[1]

Application

ITO cover slides may be used for closed digital microfluidic devices and as a transparent electrodes in display and other optoelectronic devices.[2] Some other potential uses that have been reported are:

• Eumelanin samples prepared on ITO covered glass substrates.[3]
• Interface windows of the liquid cell for optical beam deflection (OBD) sensing contain a 20-nm-thick indium tin oxide film.[4]
• Mesoporous TiO₂ films were formed on ITO conductive glass substrates.[5]

Physical properties

Thickness of ITO coating is 150-300 Å.
Resistance may increase to as high as 375 Ω when exposed to temperatures of 300 °C for 30 minutes or more.

To avoid damaging the thin film coating when determining which side is coated, lightly touch the barrelsof the probes to the same surface of a single-side coated product. Testing the alternate side will quicklyshow one with a low resistance as compared to the opposing side, which will exhibit an essentially infiniteresistance.
