Abstract Details

2017, Master of Sciences, Case Western Reserve University, Physics.
The historical and current market trends for transparent conductive coating are considered. The metal oxide transparent conductive coatings are found to have all but reached their theoretical limits. In light of this background, a coating process that was developed for an electron-beam deposition chamber at VisiMax Technologies is described. The coating process is shown to be capable of depositing an ITO film that is on par with the protective coatings that are currently on the market. The protective coating market is investigated and found to be sufficiently large for a specialized thin film-coating firm to enter. The ITO film that was produced by this process had a sheet resistance of 62 ohm-squares and an average transmission through the visible range (400nm – 700nm) of 89.4%.
