A substantially transparent conductive layer is provided on a support, the layer comprising a conductive ionic liquid and a conductive metal network distributed therein.

Transparent conductive system

A multiple layer photosensitive element having at least three differently sensitised photosensitive layers on one side of a support, such as a, transparent flexible support, is imagewise exposed according to a desired circuit pattern and developed to form two layers of conductive track patterns from each photosensitive layer, which may then be connected together by forming vias by drilling or in situ generation. The resulting multiple layer conductive element has application in the field of printed circuit board manufacture or as the backplane electronic element of a flexible display device.

Method of forming flexible electronic circuits

A multiple layer photosensitive silver halide element having at least one sensitized photosensitive layer on each side of a support, such as a transparent flexible support, is imagewise exposed according to a desired circuit pattern and developed to form a layer of conductive track patterns from each photosensitive layer. The resulting multiple layer conductive element has application in the field of printed circuit board manufacture or as the backplane electronic element of a flexible display device.

A method and system of capturing a three dimensional image of an object or scene and using the information obtained to produce a physical representation of the object or scene. The physical representation may be dynamic, for moving objects, or permanent.

Three dimensional images

A patterned electrical conductor having improved conductivity and controllably high resolution track and gap widths is obtained by exposing, to a desired conductive pattern, a pressure-sensitive or photosensitive element comprising a support and a pressure-sensitive or photosensitive material coated thereon being sensitive to the exposure (e.g. the wavelength of exposing radiation) and capable of providing a latent image upon exposure, and then developing the exposed element to form a developed element having a metal (e.g. silver) image thereon and then electroless plating and/or electroplating the metal image with a second metal (e.g. silver) whilst subjecting the developed element to ultrasonic agitation.

Method of forming conductive tracks

An apparatus for washing contaminants from a coated surface of a material comprises an inclined substantially planar surface up which the material is passed, an inlet for the introduction of wash solution at the upper part of the planar surface and pressure applying means for holding the material in full contact with the surface.

Washing method and apparatus

The present invention provides a method and a system for processing light sensitive photographic material, comprising the steps of exposing an image onto the photographic material, applying to the material in an imagewise manner at least one developer wherein the amount of developer applied at any point depends on the image density to be produced at that point, wherein the exposure is controlled to account for the response of the photographic material to the amount of developer applied. The invention provides a method and system for processing photographic material that is simple, chemically efficient and produces low or zero-effluent whilst also providing fully satisfactory photographic performance.
