Oxide Dispersion

Indium tin oxide slurry is one of the most importantly transparent, electrically conductive materials. In the optoelectronic industry, it is mainly used to coat semiconductor sensor wirings and manufacture diverse electro-optical components and devices such as liquid-crystal screens, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), and touch screens. In addition, it is used as transparent heating glass in de-icing systems, heatable object slides or hot states.

Indium tin oxide slurry is found in invisible antennae and thin-film solar cells. Indium tin oxide layers protect image sensors of high-quality digital cameras. Due to its transparency and electrical conductivity, ITO is used for coating non-conductive materials such as plastics to prevent electrostatic charging.

Indium tin oxide slurry is one of the most widely used transparent conducting oxides because of its two main properties: its electrical conductivity and optical transparency, as well as the ease with which it can be deposited as a thin film. As with all transparent conducting films, a compromise must be made between conductivity and transparency, since increasing the thickness and increasing the concentration of charge carriers increases the material's conductivity, but decreases its transparency.

ITO base slurry is also used for various optical coatings, most notably infrared-reflecting coatings (hot mirrors) for automotive, and sodium vapor lamp glasses. Other uses include gas sensors, antireflection coatings, electrowetting on dielectrics, and Bragg reflectors for VCSEL lasers. ITO is also used as the IR reflector for Low-E window panes. ITO films deposited on windshields are used for defrosting aircraft windshields. The heat is generated by applying a voltage across the film.

ITO Slurry is utilized for the production of lamps that are electroluminescent, functional, and fully flexible. Also, ITO thin films are used primarily to serve as coatings that are anti-reflective and for liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and electroluminescence, where the thin films are used as conducting, transparent electrodes. ITO is often used to make transparent conductive coating for displays such as liquid crystal displays, flat panel displays, plasma displays, touch panels, and electronic ink applications.
