Problems solved by technology

The attached crystallization of the deposited material is generally higher than 300°C, and the general organic substrate begins to deform at about 130°C, which is not conducive to film formation; in addition, when the substrate temperature is too low, the deposited atomic groups do not have enough energy Migration and crystallization will increase the defects in the film, so that the obtained film has a smaller grain size, a higher resistivity, and a lower visible light transmittance; in addition, the lattice matching between the organic substrate and the transparent conductive film is not as good as that of glass Substrate, the thin film should not be attached, especially when the substrate temperature is low, the bonding between the film and the substrate is very weak, and the thin film is easy to fall off or cannot be formed at all.
At the same time, due to the poor surface flatness of the organic substrate, the thickness of the deposited film will inevitably be uneven. These characteristics make the resistivity of the transparent conductive film prepared on the organic substrate larger. These are problems that need to be solved
In order to improve the quality of the film, the previous methods are mainly divided into two types: one is to use physical methods to prepare flexible films, such as magnetron sputtering, but this method is expensive and requires a vacuum environment, which is not conducive to large-scale film formation; After the film is made by sol-gel method, secondary treatment is carried out by ultraviolet light and other methods, but the process is relatively cumbersome

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of film preparation, in particular to a preparation method of a transparent conductive film. Background technique [0002] Since the organic flexible substrate is not resistant to high temperature, it brings great difficulty to the deposition of thin film. The attached crystallization of the deposited material is generally higher than 300°C, and the general organic substrate begins to deform at about 130°C, which is not conducive to film formation; in addition, when the substrate temperature is too low, the deposited atomic groups do not have enough energy Migration and crystallization will increase the defects in the film, so that the obtained film has a smaller grain size, a higher resistivity, and a lower visible light transmittance; in addition, the lattice matching between the organic substrate and the transparent conductive film is not as good as that of glass The substrate and thin film should not be attached,...
