Abstract: In order to disclose a structure, which performs the functions of a structured, organic, electrically conductive, transparent electrode and an orientation layer, a cost-reducing and time-saving method for producing such a structure, and uses of this structure, the invention proposes a layer on a substrate, which layer contains an organic, transparent, electrically conductive material and which has a preferred orientation, a method for producing such a layer, in which a transparent, electrically conductive layer is produced and oriented on a substrate, and a use of such a layer as a combined electrode-and orientation layer in LC displays.

Abstract: A thin-film component and a method for manufacturing it are proposed, an insulation layer (20) and a resistance layer (30) being applied on a substrate (10), the insulation layer (20) being applied in liquid form on the membrane (10).

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a gelatin-coated glass panel is described. In this, gelatin is first applied onto a glass panel, then a protective layer is sputtered on through a mask placed onto the gelatin layer. After removal of the mask, the gelatin can be removed, with the aid of a dry etching method, from the regions in which it is not equipped with a protective layer. The glass panel can then easily be divided by scoring and breaking. The method makes it possible to produce, on a large-scale production basis, liquid crystal displays which have either a color filter or a black matrix made of photoemulsion.
