Abstract

Transparent conductive indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films were deposited on transparent flexible clay films with heat resistant and high gas barrier properties by rf magnetron sputtering. The electrical, structural, and optical properties of these films were examined as a function of deposition temperature. A lowest resistivity of 4.2 × 10 − 4 Ωcm and an average transmittance more than 90% in the visible region were obtained for the ITO thin films fabricated at deposition temperatures more than 300 °C. It was found that ITO thin films with low resistivity and high transparency can be achieved on transparent flexible clay film using conventional rf magnetron sputtering at high temperature, those characteristics are comparable to those of ITO thin films deposited on a glass substrate.
