  • Patent number: 10580549
    Abstract: A method of fabricating a transparent conductor includes the following steps. The first step is drawing a substrate from a first reel to a second reel along a travelling path, and along the travelling path. Next step is forming a metal nanowire dispersion layer on the substrate and then drying the metal nanowire dispersion layer to form a metal nanowire network layer. Next step is forming a matrix layer on the metal nanowire network layer so as to form a conductive layer of the metal nanowire network layer embedded in the matrix layer.
