Abstract
Optical elements are prepared by the adhesive transfer of at least a low temperature curable (e.g., radiation or room temperature curable, preferably pressure-sensitive) adhesive layer and a conductive layer to a substrate, preferably a transparent, non-birefringent substrate such as ceramic, glass or polymeric film having, for example, a color filter array thereon. The (pressure-sensitive) curable adhesive is cured after the curable adhesive layer has been placed into contact with a final receptor surface (e.g., a color filter array on a liquid crystal panel).
