Abstract

Provided is a method of forming metal-lines having high conductivity on a flexible substrate, including (a) forming a buffer layer on a first substrate, (b) forming metal-lines by printing a metal-nanoparticle-ink on the buffer layer, (c) sintering the metal-nanoparticle-ink through thermal treatment, (d) forming supporting-members between the metal-lines and the first substrate by etching the buffer layer by using a etching solvent and controlling an etching time so that a portion of the buffer layer is not etched, (e) picking up the metal-lines from the first substrate by using a stamp in the state where a pattern of the metal-lines is fixed and arranged by the supporting-members, and (f) transferring the picked-up metal-lines to a second substrate, wherein the first substrate is a heat resistant substrate which is not deformed at a sintering temperature of the metal-nanoparticle-ink, and the second substrate is a flexible substrate.
