Abstract
An optically transparent conductive material is disposed directly or indirectly on an inside surface of a cover material for static dissipation in an optical switching device. The optically transparent conductive material forms an electrically continuous film. The optically transparent conductive material can also be used for anti-reflection. An additional coating may be disposed directly or indirectly on an outside surface of the cover material.
