The present disclosure is directed to a transparent conductor for use in touch panel devices having a plurality of nanostructures therein that provides reliable output based on user touch or pen input. To determine if a touch panel is reliable, there is disclosed a method of measuring voltages across the transparent conductor when it is touched. These measured voltages are converted into contact resistances, which are statistically analyzed. A median contact resistance is determined based on the converted contact resistances. The remaining set of converted contact resistances are analyzed to determine if they are within acceptable limits. Acceptable limits may include most of the contact resistances falling within a range, none of the contact resistances exceeding an upper limit, and a difference in contact resistances converted for different users or pens does not exceed a maximum variability.

Improved methods and articles providing conformal coatings for a variety of devices including electronic, semiconductor, and liquid crystal display devices. Peptide formulations which bind to nanoparticles and substrates, including substrates with trenches and vias, to provide conformal coverage as a seed layer. The seed layer can be further enhanced with use of metallic films deposited on the seed layer. Seed layers can be characterized by AFM measurements and improved seed layers provide for better enhancement layers including lower resistivity in the enhancement layer. Peptides can be identified by phage display.

摘要:
One embodiment of this invention pertains to a high throughput screening technique to identify current leakage in matrix-structured electronic devices. Because elements that are likely to develop a short have relatively high leakage current at zero operation hours, by identifying elements with the relatively high leakage current, the electronic devices that are more likely to later develop a short can be differentiated. The screening technique includes performing the following actions: selecting one of multiple first lines; applying a first voltage to the selected first line; applying a second voltage to the one or more of the first lines that are not selected; floating the multiple second lines; and measuring the voltages on the second lines, either sequentially one line at a time or measuring all the lines at the same time.
