ITO is the abbreviation of Indium Tin Oxide, which is a special semiconductor material. Because indium tin oxide has high transparency and good electrical conductivity, it has been widely used in many scientific and technological fields.
ITO conductive film is a thin layer of ITO material. The main characteristic of this film is to be conductive while remaining transparent.
Applications:
1. **Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) and Touch Screen**: ITO film is used as electrode and touch sensing layer because it can conduct current without blocking Pixel light behind.
2. **Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) and Electronic Paper Display (EPD)**: In these devices, the ITO film is a transparent electrode layer that allows current to pass while letting light pass through.
3. **Solar Cells**: In some types of solar cells, ITO films can be used as transparent electrode layers.
4. **Electromagnetic shielding**: ITO film is used to reduce electromagnetic interference in electronic equipment due to its conductive properties.
5. **Anti-static**: In some applications, ITO film can be used to prevent the accumulation of static electricity.
6. **Electrically heated windows for aircraft and train cockpits**: ITO film can generate heat by conducting electric current to prevent windows from freezing.
