To that end, indium-tin alloys are considered. Cast In-Sn exhibits substantial damping for a metal. Quenching substantially improved the damping of indium-tin alloy but the effect gradually disappeared due to aging. Cold work of 1.3 % permanent shear strain had the effect of moderately increasing the damping of indium-tin, and 30 % permanent ...

Abstract: Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films are widely used as transparent electrodes in electronic devices. Many of those electronic devices are heat sensitive, thus their manufacturing process steps should not exceed 100 C. Manufacturing competitive high-quality ITO films at low temperature at industrial scale is still a challenge.

Indium tin oxide (ITO) is the most widely used transparent conductor in applications such as light emitting diodes, liquid crystal devices, touch screens, and photovoltaic cells. So far, its use has mainly been limited to the visible range (380 nm–750 nm), as it reflects at longer wavelengths and, consequently, its transmission is low. ...
