摘要
Transparent conductive electrodes(TCEs) have a wide range of applications in touch screens, OLED, organic solar cells, electronic paper, LCD, transparent display, transparent electromagnetic shielding, etc. However, how to realize the low-cost and mass production of large-area TCEs is a challenging issue in academia and industry. A novel large-area TCEs manufacturing method by combining the electric-field driven fusion deposition direct writing and the liquid bridge transfer is proposed. A series of experiments are conducted to reveal the influence laws of process parameters (printing bed temperature, surface tension of functional materials, and curing parameters) for TCEs fabricated. Based on the proposed method and the optimized process parameters, a high-resolution mesh TCE which has a 20 mm×20 mm area, an average line width of 4 μm, a period of 200 μm, the transmittance of 88.15%, and sheet resistance of 12 Ω/sq has been successfully manufactured. The results show that the proposed method provides a promising solution for mass producing large-area TCEs with high resolution, low cost. © 2019 Journal of Mechanical Engineering.
