Patent ID: 8854589

Claim:
A transparent or semitransparent conducting article for use with a display device having display areas for electronically displaying content, comprising layers arranged in the following order: a first transparent or semitransparent conductive layer; a second transparent or semitransparent conductive layer; a transparent or semitransparent intervening layer located between the first and second conductive layers, wherein the intervening layer comprises a dielectric; and a substrate, wherein the intervening layer includes electrically conductive transparent or semitransparent pathways extending through the intervening layer between and in contact with the first and second conductive layers, wherein the first and second conductive layers each comprise a sheet of material and the first conductive layer is substantially coextensive with the second conductive layer, and the intervening layer is substantially coextensive with the first and second conductive layers, wherein the conducting article is configured to cover all of the display areas of the display device.
