Abstract

A method for patterning crystalline indium tin oxide (ITO) using femtosecond laser is disclosed, which comprises steps of: (a) providing a substrate with an amorphous ITO layer thereon; (b) transferring the amorphous ITO layer in a predetermined area into a crystalline ITO layer by emitting a femtosecond laser beam to the amorphous ITO layer in the predetermined area; and (c) removing the amorphous ITO layer on the substrate using an etching solution.
