Transparent conductive materials and coatings, methods of production and uses thereof

Abstract

Transparent conductive materials, articles and films are described herein a) that are easily and efficiently produced, b) can be produced prior to application or in situ, c) are easily applied to surfaces and substrates or formed into articles, d) can be produced and used with materials and methods that are generally accepted by the flat panel display (FPD) industry, along with other industries that produce and utilize microelectronics, e) can be tailored to be photoimageable and patternable using accepted photolithography techniques, f) have superior optical properties and have superior film forming properties, including better adhesion to other adjacent layers, the ability to be laid down in very or ultra thin layers and the ability to remain transparent when laid down as thicker layers. Methods of producing and using these transparent conductive materials are also disclosed.
