  • Publication number: 20160163984
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing an electrode for OLEDs, comprising the following successive steps: (a) depositing, on a transparent substrate, a metal film composed of silver or of an alloy of silver having a thickness in the range between 35 and 70 nm, preferably between 45 and 65 nm; (b) heating the substrate covered with the metal film to a temperature in the range between 200° C. and 400° C., for a period of at least 5 minutes, preferably in the range between 20 and 60 minutes, so as to obtain the dewetting of the metal film and the formation of a random metal grid on the transparent substrate; (c) covering the transparent substrate and the random metal grid with a continuous layer of a transparent conductive material.

  • Publication number: 20150234104
    Abstract: A transparent composite can include a textured substrate and a solar control layer. Portions of the solar control layer may lie at different elevations that are separated by a sidewall of the textured substrate. The portions may be electrically disconnected from each other or include other portions that are highly resistive. In an embodiment, the solar control layer can be non-conformally deposited over the textured substrate. The solar control layer can be formed such that there are no lateral gaps between portions of the solar control layer. In a particular embodiment, the transparent composite can have good transmission of visible light and high frequency signals while still achieving suitably low transmission of near infrared radiation.
