Title: Innovations by Atsushi Toufuku

Introduction

Atsushi Toufuku is a notable inventor based in Ichikawa, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of transparent conductive materials, holding 2 patents that showcase his innovative approach to technology.

Latest Patents

One of his latest patents is for a transparent conductor film for electric field shielding. This invention involves a thin conductive film that excels in film strength, weather resistance, transparency, and electric field shielding effect. It is formed on a glass substrate at a low temperature as a multilayer film, consisting of an ITO-dispersed silicate layer and an overcoat silicate layer. The ITO dispersed silicate layer includes ultra-fine particles of indium tin oxide and a silicate-based glass matrix. The high-conductivity oxide-dispersed silicate layer consists of ultra-fine particles selected from a group that includes ruthenium dioxide, rhenium trioxide, iridium dioxide, rhodium dioxide, and iridium-based pyrochlore, all within a silicate-based glass matrix.

Another significant patent is for a coating solution for forming a transparent and electrically conductive film. This solution contains fine conductive metal or alloy particles dispersed in a polar solvent, with a diameter not exceeding 50 nm. The metal particles are primarily silver, along with at least one of palladium, copper, and gold. The alloy particles consist of silver combined with at least one of these metals. This innovative solution allows for a baking temperature as low as 150°C to 450°C.
