Substrate with conductor micropattern

Abstract

The present disclosure provides an article having a conductor micropattern disposed on a major surface of a substrate. The conductor micropattern includes a plurality of curved traces defining a plurality of cells not lying on a repeating array. The conductor micropattern may have a uniform distribution of trace orientation. The conductor micropattern may be a tri-layer material including in sequence a semi-reflective metal, a transparent layer, and a reflective layer disposed on the transparent layer. The articles are useful in devices such as displays, in particular, touch screen displays useful for mobile hand held devices, tablets and computers. They also find use in antennas and for EMI shields.
