Abstract
A sol-gel coating of conductive materials, such as ITO, which is applied to a substrate, for example a display window of a cathode ray tube, is cured by means of a laser. This is preferably carried out in a water-containing atmosphere, for example an aqueous aerosol and/or a hydrogen-containing gas, such as a forming gas. This results in a stable resistance reduction by several hundred times.
