Hi,

Does anyone know where to get (sample or buy) transparent and conductive
plastic in thin sheets? The conductivity can be with high resistance of
order 10K to 100K ohms/sq. I'm not about to take apart any conductive
plastic potentiometers yet but the thought occurred to me.

Thanks,
Andrew

Electrons have to vibrate in synchronization with the input field for
transparency. Conduction would prevent this. A thin coating might get
around this.


That ties in with the fact that conductive plastics I've seen look metallic,
but how do Tin Oxide (or Indium Tin Oxide) films manage to be very
transparent and conduct at the same time?
