A method of manufacturing a substrate for displays is provided, which can easily control the surface electrical resistance of the anti-electrification film formed on a surface of the substrate, and a substrate for displays manufactured by the same method. The film is formed by preparing a target from a metal oxide, and forming a thin film of a metal oxynitride on a surface of the substrate by sputtering using the target in an atmosphere of a mixture gas of an inert gas and nitrogen, a mixing ratio of the inert gas and nitrogen in the atmosphere being adjusted such that the thin film has a desired surface electrical resistance.

A method of film deposition is disclosed, which eliminates the conventional problem that a coating film having a component concentration gradient in the thickness direction and thus having a boundary with a compositional gradient or a coating film in which two or more components coexist as a mixture thereof cannot be stably obtained by sputtering. In the method, two planar cathodes are closely arranged as a pair, and a voltage is applied thereto while alternately inverting the polarities thereof so that when a target A bonded to one of the cathodes is used as a negative electrode, then a target B bonded to the other cathode and differing to the target A in component is used as a positive electrode. The targets A and B are simultaneously bombarded with positive ions while passing a substrate in front of the targets so as to cross the cathodes. Thus, a coating film having a boundary with a compositional gradient in the thickness direction or a coating film having a two-layer structure composed of a layer of ingredient A and a layer of ingredient B is deposited by sputtering through one-direction conveyance.

A transparent touch panel substrate comprising a transparent substrate and deposited thereon a transparent conductive metal oxide film which contains zinc, indium, and tin as metallic elements and is soluble in acids. The transparent conductive metal oxide film preferably contains zinc in an amount of from 40 to 65 atomic % based on all metals and contains indium in an amount of from 0.25 to 1.3 times the amount of tin on an atomic basis. The film preferably has a thickness of from 100 to 160 nm. Unlike the conventional substrate for resistive film type transparent touch panels which comprises a glass plate coated with a transparent conductive ITO film, the touch panel substrate of the invention combines three properties: high light transmittance; ease of processing in forming a transparent electrode by acid etching; and the transparent conductive film has a moderate sheet resistance of from 500 to 5,000&OHgr;. It therefore realizes a touch panel which combines the three functions of having satisfactory display quality, being of the power-saving type, and enabling touch switch operations to be conducted without fail.

摘要:
Sputtering method and apparatus for forming a coating on both sides of a flat substrate or on the entire surface of a bulky substrate without involving rotation of the substrate. At least one pair of sputtering cathodes each having a target attached thereto are arranged in a film-forming chamber capable of controlling a vacuum atmosphere with their target sides facing each other, and a substrate is disposed in front of the targets. A voltage is applied to the sputtering cathodes in such a manner that the polarity alternates between the sputtering cathodes making the pair to induce a glow discharge between the sputtering cathodes. The target on each sputtering cathode is thereby sputtered and deposited on the substrate.
摘要:
A process for inexpensively producing an insulating substrate suitable for use in image displays fabricated through a high-temperature production step, such as plasma displays and field emission displays (FED). A multilayered insulating film of one member selected from SiO2, a silicon oxynitride, and a silicon nitride is coated on a surface of a glass plate by reactive sputtering using one or more silicon targets in oxygen or/and nitrogen. The interface between layers in the multilayered insulating film functions to trap sodium ions thermally diffusing from the glass, whereby the amount of sodium ions which dissolve in the insulating film and reach the surface thereof is considerably reduced.
