The Production of ITO Transparent Conductive Materials and the Development Prospect in the Field of Biological Information

Abstract:

The transparent conductive film made of Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) is widely used in many fields because of its excellent electrical conductivity and optical properties. At present, the information in biological detection field has not satisfied the people's needs, which are obtained based on some kind of sensors with traditional rigid substrate preparation. The contact surface for creatures perceive and stimulation are flexible surfaces. The kinds of electrode with ITO conductive film as the base for electrode preparation have a great application prospect in biological information collection.
