PATTERNED CONDUCTIVE POLYMER WITH DIELECTRIC PATCH

摘要

A patterned conductive structure includes a transparent substrate having a substrate surface. A conductive polymer layer is formed on the substrate surface. The conductive polymer layer has electrically conductive areas and deactivated areas that are less electrically conductive than the conductive areas. The conductive areas and the deactivated areas form a conductive pattern in the polymer layer. One or more transparent dielectric patches that are less electrically conductive than the deactivated areas are formed over at least a portion of one or more deactivated areas and one or more conductive wires are formed over at least one of the dielectric patches.

1. A patterned conductive structure, comprising:
a substrate having a substrate surface; a conductive polymer layer formed on the substrate surface, the conductive polymer layer having electrically conductive areas and deactivated areas that are less electrically conductive than the conductive areas, the conductive areas and the deactivated areas forming a conductive pattern in the conductive polymer layer; one or more dielectric patches that are less electrically conductive than the deactivated areas formed over less than all of the conductive polymer layer and over at least a portion of one or more deactivated areas; and one or more conductive wires formed over at least one of the dielectric patches.
