Ultra-fine copper mesh for display and touch panel and method of manufacturing the same
First Claim
1. A method of manufacturing an ultra-fine copper mesh of a display and a touch panel, comprising the steps of:
- a pure copper depositing step of depositing a pure copper deposited film on a transparent substrate;
a pure copper oxidation step of forming an oxide layer on the surface of the pure copper deposited film layer, the oxide layer comprising cuprous oxide (Cu2O) and copper oxide (CuO);
a surface treatment step of removing copper oxide (CuO) in the oxide layer to form an antireflective conductive film containing only cuprous oxide (Cu2O);
an exposure developing step of coating a photoresist (PR) to the antireflective conductive film and developing the photoresist (PR) to form a mesh pattern;
an over-etching step of over-etching the pure copper deposited film and the antireflective conductive film to form an ultra-fine copper mesh on the transparent substrate; and
a photoresist (PR) removal step of removing the photoresist (PR) on the antireflective conductive film,wherein a mesh width of at least one of the ultra-fine copper mesh is between 0.5 micron and 20 microns.

Abstract
The disclosure provides an ultra-fine copper mesh for a display and a touch panel, comprising a transparent substrate, having an upper surface and a lower surface with respect to the upper surface; and a first copper electrode layer comprising a first pure copper deposited film, having a top surface and a bottom surface with respect to the top surface, wherein the bottom surface of the first pure copper deposited film is disposed on the upper surface of the transparent substrate; and a first antireflective conductive film, disposed on the top surface of the first pure copper deposited film, the first antireflective conductive film comprises a cuprous oxide (Cu2O). After the first antireflective conductive film is subjected to an exposure developing process, the first copper deposited film layer of the first copper electrode layer and the first antireflective conductive film are simultaneously subjected to an over-etching process on the transparent substrate to form together at least one mesh pattern.
