摘要:
A method of making a micro-wire circuit structure adapted for wrapping includes providing a display and a flexible substrate. The flexible substrate includes a plurality of electrically conductive micro-wires on, in, or adjacent to a common side of the flexible substrate and forming micro-wire electrodes in a touch portion of the flexible substrate. One or more electrical circuits is located on or in a circuit portion of the flexible substrate and one or more micro-wires electrically connects the one or more electrical circuits to corresponding micro-wire electrodes. The flexible substrate is located in relation to the display with the touch portion located adjacent to a display viewing side, the circuit portion located adjacent to a display back side, and an edge portion of the flexible substrate wrapping around a display edge from the display viewing side to the display back side.

A multi-layer biocidal structure includes a support. A structured bi-layer is located on or over the support. The bi-layer includes a first cured layer on or over the support and a second layer on or over the first cured layer on a side of the first cured layer opposite the support. The structured bi-layer has at least one depth greater than the thickness of the second layer. Multiple biocidal particles are located only in the first cured layer.

Electrically-conductive articles are prepared to have electrically-conductive metallic grids and electrically-conductive metallic connectors (BUS lines) on one or both supporting sides of a transparent substrate. The electrically-conductive metallic connectors are designed with one metallic main wire that comprises two or more adjacent metallic micro-wires in bundled patterns. These bundled patterns and metallic micro-wires are designed with specific dimensions and configurations to provide optimal fidelity (or correspondence) to the mask image used to provide such patterns. The electrically-conductive articles can be prepared using various manufacturing technologies and can be used as parts of various electronic devices including touch screen devices. The electrically-conductive metallic grids and connectors can be prepared and designed using various technologies that are amenable to obtaining very fine lines in predetermined patterns.

A method of using a multi-layer biocidal structure includes providing a multi-layer biocidal structure that includes a support and a structured bi-layer on or over the support. The structured bi-layer includes a first cured layer including dispersed multiple biocidal particles on or over the support and a second cured layer on or over the first cured layer on a side of the first cured layer opposite the support. The multiple biocidal particles are dispersed within only the first curable layer. The structured bi-layer has at least one depth greater than the thickness of the second layer. The multi-layer biocidal structure is located on a surface.

A filled large-format imprinted structure includes a cured layer including a cured layer surface and one or more micro-cavities imprinted in the cured layer, each micro-cavity having a micro-cavity width and a micro-cavity depth. One or more ribs are imprinted in each micro-cavity and extend from the bottom of the micro-cavity toward the top of the micro-cavity, each rib having a rib width that is less than one half of the micro-cavity width, and a rib height that is less than the micro-cavity depth. Each rib separates the micro-cavity into portions, each portion having a portion width less than or equal to 20 microns. A cured material is located in each portion of the micro-cavity and extends over the top of the rib, thereby defining a filled large-format imprinted structure.

A method of making a filled large-format imprinted structure includes providing a substrate, locating a curable layer over the substrate, imprinting the curable layer, and curing the curable layer to form a cured layer including a layer surface having one or more areas. Each area has a plurality of imprinted micro-cavities, wherein each micro-cavity has a micro-cavity width less than or equal to 20 microns. A rib separates each micro-cavity from an adjacent micro-cavity by a rib width that is less than the micro-cavity width, the rib extending from a bottom of the micro-cavity to the layer surface. A common curable material is located in each micro-cavity and cured to form common cured material in each micro-cavity, thereby defining a filled large-format imprinted structure.

An imprinted electronic sensor structure on a substrate for sensing an environmental factor includes a cured layer having a layer surface located on the substrate. Spatially separated micro-channels extend from the layer surface into the cured layer. A multi-layer micro-wire is formed in each micro-channel. Each multi-layer micro-wire includes at least a conductive layer and a reactive layer. The reactive layer is exposed to the environmental factor. The conductive layer is a cured electrical conductor located only within the micro-channel and at least a portion of the reactive layer responds to the environmental factor.

Electrically-conductive articles are prepared to have electrically-conductive silver metal electrode grids and electrically-conductive silver connector wire patterns (BUS lines) on one or both supporting sides of a transparent substrate. The electrically-conductive silver connector wire patterns are designed with one silver main wire that comprises two or more adjacent silver micro-wires in bundled patterns. These bundled patterns and silver micro-wires are designed with specific dimensions and configurations to provide optimal fidelity (or correspondence) to the mask image used to provide such images in a silver halide emulsion layer. The electrically-conductive articles are provided by imagewise exposure, development, and fixing of corresponding silver halide-containing conductive film element precursors containing photosensitive silver halide emulsion layers. The electrically-conductive articles can be used as parts of various electronic devices including touch screen devices.
