Method of forming an electrically conductive member

摘要

A method of depositing a preselected pattern of electrically conductive metallic material onto a layer of relatively transparent electrically conductive material. In its broadest form the method includes the single step of electroplating the electrically conductive metallic material onto the transparent conductive layer. The method has particular utility in electroplating metal grid patterns onto the indium tin oxide layer of an amorphous thin film photovoltaic device.
