Problems solved by technology

However, the application of the AZO / Ag / AZO DMD film is not particularly ideal, and there are a series of problems such as incomplete protection of the silver film and insufficient film adhesion, which are specifically reflected in: (1) Poor resistance to humidity and heat, oxygen in the outside air , Water easily penetrates the AZO layer and diffuses to the silver film, resulting in the oxidation failure of the silver film; (2) The oxidation resistance in the air is poor, after a period of time in the air, the silver film is easy to oxidize and agglomerate, and white spots appear on the surface of the film , thereby affecting the photoelectric properties of the film; (3) poor thermal stability during high-temperature heat treatment; (4) poor adhesion between the AZO layer and the silver film, and film surface contact and friction during handling will cause film scratches, affect the quality of the film surface

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of flexible photoelectric films, in particular to a transparent conductive film based on ultra-thin metal. Background technique [0002] In recent years, facing the needs of wearable devices, thin-film optoelectronic devices have gradually developed in the direction of flexibility, and the demand for flexible transparent conductive films has become increasingly urgent. At present, indium tin oxide (ITO) film is the most commonly used transparent conductive film in the market. Due to the limitation of the brittleness of the oxide itself, it has been difficult to meet the needs of flexible optoelectronic devices. Therefore, flexible transparent conductive film products that can replace ITO must be the basic material for future flexible optoelectronic products, and even more strategic materials for flexible optoelectronic products. [0003] Among the flexible transparent conductive film materials that have been studied ...
