NOVELTY - Manufacturing patterned electrically-conductive layer of conductive objects on a substrate involves applying a coating layer of electrically-conductive transparent compounds on a substrate; depositing in a vacuum deposition chamber an electrically-conductive material onto the coating layer to form an electrically-conductive layer; applying an etch-resist material on selective areas of the electrically-conductive layer; and chemically etching the electrically-conductive material from exposed areas of the electrically-conductive layer that are not covered by the etch-resist material.    USE - For manufacturing patterned electrically-conductive layer of conductive objects on a substrate to produce flexible electronic circuits, transparent conductive electrodes, electric shunting lines, heaters or electromagnetic interference shields (claimed) for displays, lighting devices, transparent heaters, solar cells, membrane switches, flexible printed circuit boards, conductive panels.    ADVANTAGE - The method provides etching process is very expensive and slow in addition to environmentally safe.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - Manufacturing patterned electrically-conductive layer of conductive objects on a substrate involves applying a coating layer onto a substrate, where the coating layer comprises electrically-conductive transparent compounds; depositing in a vacuum deposition chamber an electrically-conductive material onto the coating layer to form an electrically-conductive layer; applying an etch-resist material on selective areas of the electrically-conductive layer, where the selective areas are substantially areas pre-designed to carry the conductive objects; and chemically etching the electrically-conductive material from exposed areas of the electrically-conductive layer that are not covered by the etch-resist material. The pattern of conductive object is grid of transparent electrodes. The depositing the electrically conductive material comprises depositing copper, aluminum, nickel, silver, stainless steel, tin, metallic alloy deposition or co-deposition of metals or metallic alloys. The conductive transparent compounds are inorganic compounds, lacquers containing inorganic particles or conductive polymers. The electrically conductive transparent compounds include indium tin oxide, zinc oxide, aluminum doped zinc oxide, zinc doped indium oxide, indium oxide, and/or flourinated tin oxide. The conductive transparent compounds include polyaniline (PANI), polyethylenedithiophene (PEDT), polyethylenedioxidethiophene (PEDOT) and/or any derivatives.    DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The figure shows methods for manufacturing pattern of conductive objects.
