For OLED
FLAT ITO Films
Transparent conductive films with smooth surfaces
Overview
For organic thin film devices, conductive films with a smooth surface are best.
We provide films that can be used even without polishing.
Features & Strengths
Point1 Smooth surfaces
Flat films realized by controlling grain size
Point2 No polishing necessary
Reduces polishing process required for smooth film, improving cost and yield
Applications
Illumination
Create comfortable spaces with natural colors and gentle light

Specifications
Superior Patterning and Resistance Value
Flat ITO film has a uniform domain structure, creating smooth patterned edges. In addition, we have achieved low resistance equal to standard ITO films and low membrane stress, meaning low stress on the substrate as well.
In addition, we have achieved flatness equal to polished surfaces and no polishing is necessary after the film is applied, meaning one less process to deal with. This also means freedom from the concern of residue or damage after polishing.
Comparison of ITO film characteristics
| General crystallized ITO films | Flat ITO films | |
|---|---|---|
| Resistance values [ Ω / sq ] | 13,3 | 10,1 |
| Film thickness [ nm ] | 150 | 158 |
| Resistance comparison [ µΩ·cm ] | 225 | 159 |
| Transmittance Rate [ % ] | 90.5(λ=550 nm) | 89.7(λ=550 nm) |
| Ra [nm] | 3.7 | 1.2 |
| Rmax [nm] | 38.5 | 14.2 |
*The above figures are representative values and are not guaranteed.
