Polymer/metal/polymer and polymer/metal/inorganic trilayer-structured transparent electrodes with fluorocarbon plasma polymer thin film heaters have been proposed. The polymer/metal/polymer and polymer/metal/inorganic transparent conducting thin films fabricated on a large-area flexible polymer substrate using a continuous roll-to-roll sputtering process show excellent electrical properties and visible-light transmittance. They also exhibit water-repelling surfaces to prevent wetting and to remove contamination. In addition, the adoption of a fluorocarbon/metal/fluorocarbon film permits an outer bending radius as small as 3 mm. These films have a sheet resistance of less than 5 Ω sq, sufficient to drive light-emitting diode circuits. The thin film heater with the fluorocarbon/Ag/SiN structure exhibits excellent heating characteristics, with a temperature reaching 180 °C under the driving voltage of 13 V. Therefore, the proposed polymer/metal/polymer and polymer/metal/inorganic transparent conducting electrodes using polymer thin films can be applied in flexible and rollable displays as well as automobile window heaters and other devices.
提出了具有氟碳等离子体聚合物薄膜加热器的聚合物/金属/聚合物和聚合物/金属/无机三层结构透明电极。使用连续的卷对卷磁控溅射工艺在大面积柔性聚合物基底上制造的聚合物/金属/聚合物和聚合物/金属/透明导电薄膜具有优异的电性能和可见光透过率。它们还具有拒水表面，以防止润湿和去除污染。此外，采用氟碳/金属/氟碳薄膜可以实现小至 3mm 的外弯曲半径。这些薄膜的方阻小于 5 Ω/sq，足以驱动发光二极管电路。具有氟碳/Ag/SiN 结构的薄膜加热器具有出色的加热特性，在 13V 的驱动电压下，温度可达到 180°C。因此，所提出的使用聚合物薄膜的聚合物/金属/聚合物和聚合物/金属/无机透明导电电极可应用于柔性和可卷曲显示器、汽车车窗加热器和其他设备。
