characteristics | the main characteristics of indium tin oxide are the combination of electrical conduction and optical transparency. However, compromises need to be made in thin film deposition, because high concentration of charge carriers will increase the conductivity of the material, but will reduce its transparency. |
use | indium tin oxide is mainly used to make liquid crystal displays, flat panel displays, plasma displays, touch screens, electronic paper and other applications, organic light emitting diodes, solar cells, and transparent conductive coatings for antistatic coatings and EMI shielding. |
