The transparent conductor market is rapidly growing with applications in flexible electronics, touch screens, lighting, displays, smart windows and photovoltaics. Indium tin oxide (ITO) is the dominant technology, but a wide variety of alternate conducting materials is emerging. These include various nano-materials such as carbon nanotubes, silver films and grids, and other metallic films. Availability of new materials which can be printed enables patterning of the transparent conductor layers. Join this workshop to learn first-hand from materials and process experts about product and manufacturing requirements for transparent conductors in a range of applications. Material performance, manufacturing cost, and maturity are among the discussion topics.
