  • Publication number: 20010044013
    Abstract: The invention provides a thin film transferrable composite comprising a carrier film, a first electrically conductive material, and adhesive. The first electrically conductive material is formed as a deposit on the carrier film and is integrally associated with first portions of the composite, and separably associated with second portions of the composite. The adhesive is arranged to coact with the first electrically conductive material for applying the composite to a receiving surface. The carrier film is separable from the second portions of the electrically conductive material with the first portions of the electrically conductive material remaining with the carrier film. The second portions of the electrically conductive material define a transferrable electrical component.
