Indium tin oxide (ITO), a transparent conductor, has been a staple of flat‐panel display manufacturing for decades and has been in great demand from the growing touch‐screen industry. Limitations of cost and performance, as well as concerns over availability, have led to the search for a replacement material. Several candidates exist or are in development, but none have yet gained the scale to displace ITO.
