Embossing will influence the transparent conductive film business

Metal mesh is an emerging technology option for creating transparent conductive films. Metal mesh transparent conductors can offer low sheet resistance, reasonable optical transmission, value chain simplification, and low cost.

Silver nanowires as transparent conductive materials

In this article series, IDTechEx Research will critically examine the various technology options that are emerging to serve as transparent conductive films. IDTechEx will provide a detailed briefing on the technology attributes and manufacturing processes. IDTechEx will then offer a critical SWOT analyses and examine the current and future uses of the technology. Finally, IDTechEx will offer a briefing on key players commercialising the technology. IDTechEx Research will start by examining silver nanowires and will then continue with graphene, carbon nanotubes, micro-fine, metal mesh and PDOT:PSS.

O-film Tech Co., Ltd

O-Film is a Chinese touch panel manufacturer that has acquired that metal mesh technology developed by NanoGrid. They company has already set up a manufacturing line and is fast increasing its sale units and revenue into the consumer electronic market. The technology has a compelling value proposition because it improves performance and reduces cost.
