Abstract: The present invention provides a transparent conductive thin film which is flexible for suiting substantially all kinds of electronic and optoelectronic devices or display panel. The present conductive thin film includes at least one transparent substrate, a deformable layer and a conductive network pattern having a high aspect ratio such that at least one surface of the conductive network being exposed out of the deformable layer or the transparent substrate for contacting with an external structure while a large proportion thereof stays firmly integrated into the substrate. The present invention also relates to methods of fabricating a transparent conductive thin film including the structural features of the transparent conductive thin film of the present invention. Various optimizations of the present methods are also provided in the present invention for facilitating large area thin film fabrication and large scale production.
