| 20090304912 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING ELECTROCHROMIC DEVICES - This invention contemplates the use of laser patterning/scribing in electrochromic device manufacture, anywhere during the manufacturing process as deemed appropriate and necessary for electrochromic device manufacturability, yield and functionality, while integrating the laser scribing so as to ensure the active layers of the device are protected to ensure long term reliability. It is envisaged that the laser is used to pattern the component layers of electrochromic devices by directly removing (ablating) the material of the component layers. The invention includes a manufacturing method for an electrochromic device comprising one or more focused laser patterning steps. To minimize redeposition of laser ablated material and particulate formation on device surfaces a number of approaches may be used: (1) ablated material generated by the focused laser patterning may be removed by vacuum suction and/or application of an inert gas jet in the vicinity of the laser ablation of device material; (2) spatial separation of the edges of layers and patterning of lower layers prior to deposition of upper layers; and (3) the laser patterning step may be performed by a laser beam focused directly on the deposited layers from above, by a laser beam directed through the transparent substrate, or by a combination of both. | 12-10-2009 |
| 20130059065 | ITO-COATED ARTICLE FOR USE WITH TOUCH PANEL DISPLAY ASSEMBLIES, AND/OR METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME - Certain example embodiments of this invention relate to techniques for making a coated article including a transparent conductive indium-tin-oxide (ITO) film supported by a heat treated glass substrate. A substantially sub-oxidized ITO or metallic indium-tin (InSn) film is sputter-deposited onto a glass substrate at room temperature. The glass substrate with the as-deposited film thereon is subjected to elevated temperatures. Thermal tempering or heat strengthening causes the as-deposited film to be transformed into a crystalline transparent conductive ITO film. Advantageously, this may reduce the cost of touch panel assemblies, e.g., because of the higher rates of the ITO deposition in the metallic mode. The cost of touch-panel assemblies may be further reduced through the use of float glass. | 03-07-2013 |
