Abstract
We demonstrate inkjet-printed transparent Zn, Sn co-doped In 2O3 (IZTO) films using nanosized IZTO ink as a transparent electrode for liquid crystal (LC) devices. By adjusting the IZTO droplet pitch and line pitch, we can produce directly patterned IZTO electrodes without using a conventional photolithography process. Effective connections between IZTO nanoparticles created by a rapid thermal annealing process resulted in a sheet resistance of ~200 O/square and an optical transmittance of 89.45%, which is acceptable for LC cell fabrication. Stable and reliable electro-optical performance of the twisted nematic LC cells fabricated on the inkjet-printed IZTO films indicates that a directly patterned IZTO film formed by inkjet printing is a promising option for creating printable transparent electrodes for cost-efficient LC cells. © 2013 IOP Publishing Ltd.
