  • Patent number: 11487393
    Abstract: A method for preparing stacking structure includes providing a substrate; disposing a metallic layer and a silver nanowire layer on the substrate; applying flexographic printing technology to print an anti-etching layer on a surface of the metallic layer or the silver nanowire layer so that the anti-etching layer partially covers the metallic layer or the silver nanowire layer; applying an etching technology to remove a part of the metallic layer or the silver nanowire layer that is not covered by the anti-etching layer and the metallic layer or the silver nanowire layer disposed therebelow with an etching liquid so that the metallic layer comprises: metallic wires; a metallic grid; and a metallic plate; and removing the anti-etching layer. A stacking structure comprises: the substrate; the metallic layer; and the silver nanowire layer. The method for preparing stacking structure and the stacking structure can be applied to a touch sensor.

  • Publication number: 20220155888
    Abstract: A stacking structure preparation method includes the steps of providing a substrate; printing a silver nanowire layer on the substrate using a flexographic printing process; and printing a meal layer on the substrate and the silver nanowire layer also using the flexographic printing process. The metal layer includes a metal mesh that covers at least a part of the substrate and the silver nanowire layer, and a plurality of metal traces that is connected to the metal mesh. A stacking structure formed through the above preparation method is also disclosed. The stacking structure includes, from bottom to top, a substrate, a flexo printed silver nanowire layer, and a flexo printed metal layer partially covering the substrate and the silver nanowire layer. The above preparation method and stacking structure can be applied to the manufacturing of a touch sensor.
