Abstract

An article includes a patterned substrate including a substrate surface with an inorganic electro-conductive trace adjacent thereto (wherein the substrate and the inorganic material of the trace each has an index of refraction), and a layer including a polymerized acrylate matrix adjacent to at least a portion of the surface of the substrate and the inorganic electro-conductive trace, wherein the layer has an index of refraction that is within ±10% of the average of the indices of refraction of the substrate and the inorganic material of the trace.
