  • Manufacturing techniques are known that make it possible to obtain metal grids of micron size. These have the advantage of achieving surface resistances less than 1 Ohm / square while maintaining a light transmission (TL) of the order of 75 to 85%.
  • TL light transmission
  • these grids have a certain number of disadvantages: their method of obtaining is based on a technique of etching a metal layer or by means of a photolithographic process associated with a chemical etching process by a liquid route, either by a laser ablation technique.

  • Figure 3 of this document US7172822 discloses the morphology of the sol gel silica mask. It appears as fine fracture lines oriented in a preferred direction, with bifurcations characteristic of the fracture phenomenon of elastic material. These main fracture lines are linked episodically between them by the bifurcations.
  • the domains between the fracture lines are asymmetrical with two characteristic dimensions: one parallel to the crack propagation direction between 0.8 and 1 mm, the other perpendicular between 100 and 200 ⁇ m.
  • This method of manufacturing an electrode by cracking of the sol gel mask constitutes an advance for the manufacture of a network conductor by eliminating for example the use of photolithography (exposure of a resin to a radiation / beam and development), but can still be improved, especially to be compatible with industrial requirements (reliability, simplification and / or reduction of manufacturing steps, at a lower cost, etc.).
  • this irregular array electrode can be improved.
  • the manufacturing process necessarily requires the deposition of an modifiable sub-layer (chemically or physically) at the interstices to either allow a preferred adhesion (of metal colloids for example) or allow the grafting of catalyst for a post-growth of metal, this sub-layer thus having a functional role in the growth process of the network.
  • the crack profile is in fact V fracture mechanics of the elastic material which involves using a post-mask process to grow the metal network from the colloidal particles at the base of V.
  • the present invention therefore aims at overcoming the drawbacks of the processes of the prior art by proposing a method of manufacturing a submillimeter and irregular network, in particular electroconductive, economical, reproducible, controlled, and whose optical properties and / or properties of electrical conductivity are at least comparable to those of the prior art.
  • the subject of the invention is firstly a method for manufacturing a mask with submillimeter openings on a surface portion of a substrate, especially with a glass function, comprising the following steps:
  • a mask layer is deposited on the substrate or on a sub-layer from a solution of colloidal particles stabilized and dispersed in a solvent,

  • the sizes of the strands may preferably be between a few tens of microns to a few hundred nanometers.
  • the ratio B / A can be chosen between 7 and 20, or even 30 to 40.
  • the meshes delimited by the openings are of various shapes, typically three, four, five sides, for example mainly four sides, and / or of various sizes, randomly distributed, aperiodic.
  • the angle between two adjacent sides of a mesh can be between 60 ° and 1 10 °, in particular between 80 ° and 100 °.
  • a main network is obtained with gaps (possibly approximately parallel) and a secondary network of interstices (possibly approximately perpendicular to the parallel network), the location and distance of which are random.
  • the secondary interstices have a width for example less than the main interstices.
  • the solution is naturally stable, with nanoparticles already formed, and preferably does not contain (or in negligible amount) polymer-precursor type reactive element.
  • Drying leads in one step to the removal of the solvent and the formation of the interstices. After drying, clusters of nanoparticles, clusters of variable size and separated by the interstices of variable size, are thus obtained. To obtain the openings over the entire depth, it is necessary at a time:
  • particles of limited size nanoparticles

  • the difference between the given glass transition temperature Tg of the particles and the drying temperature is preferably greater than
  • the deposition and drying steps of the process can be carried out substantially at atmospheric pressure rather than vacuum drying for example.

  • drying parameters such as the degree of humidity, the drying speed, can be modified to adjust B, A, and / or the B / A ratio.
  • control parameters chosen from the coefficient of friction between the compacted colloids can be modified, in particular by nanotexturing of the substrate and the surface of the substrate, the size of the nanoparticles, and the initial concentration of particles, the nature of the solvent, the thickness depending on the deposition technique, to adjust B, A, and / or ratio B / A.
  • the thickness of the mask can be submicron up to several tens of microns. The greater the thickness of the mask layer, the larger A (respectively B) is.
  • edges of the mask are substantially straight, that is to say in a mean plane between 80 and 100 ° relative to the surface, or even between 85 ° and 95 °.
  • the discontinuous layer is deposited (no or little deposit along the edges) and the coated mask can be removed. without damaging the grid.
  • the deposit can be made both through the interstices and on the mask.
  • the interstitial network can be cleaned using a plasma source at atmospheric pressure.

  • a heat treatment (local or otherwise) at a temperature above Tg, in particular 3 times at 5 times Tg, and naturally below the melting temperature Tf, or a differential drying of the mask, for example by modifying locally the degree of humidity and / or the temperature.
  • the pads consist of a mass of nanoparticles: under the action of temperature, these pads are likely to become denser. After densification the size of the pads (B) is decreased: their surface and the thickness are reduced. There is thus by this heat treatment modification in the characteristic dimensions of the mask: ratio between the opening of the stitches and the width of the stitches.
  • the compaction of the mask in the second advantage, causes an improvement in the adhesion thereof on the substrate which makes it more manipulable (it avoids chipping) while keeping the steps of lift-off possible (simple washing at the same time). water if the colloid was deposited from an aqueous solution).
