General description

Indium tin oxide films are inherently brittle in nature. To overcome this, ITO is coated with transparent conductive polymers or nanomaterial. Indium tin oxide coated polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film is optically transparent and electrically conductive.The ITO coating is protected by a thin, transparent film, that can be easily peeled off.

Application

A radius of curvature of up to 75 mm will not damage the ITO coating.
Micro mechanical properties of ITO-PET were investigated. Electrical resistance of ITO-PET increases in case of degradation. ITO-PET was used as an electrode in the electrochemical measurements in a study of biosensors composed of polymer brushes. ITO microelectrodes were studied as an “electronic tongue” for analyte recognition. The sheet resistance of ITO, after bending to a radius of 25 mm was investigated, for its use for flexible optical devices. Giant unilamellar vesicle (GUVs) were produced on ITO coated glass slides by drying droplets of the FhuA proteoliposomes.

Features and Benefits

The polyester film products comprise sputtered ITO, and exhibit transmittance and resistance characteristics similar to those of the glass substrates.

Inverted Organic Photovoltaic Devices Using Zinc Oxide Nanocomposites as Electron Transporting Layer Materials

Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) represent a low-cost, lightweight, and scalable alternative to conventional solar cells. While significant progress has been made in the development of conventional bulk heterojunction cells, new approaches are required to achieve the performance and stability necessary to enable commercially successful OPVs.
