Investigations on the laser-induced reduction of indium tin oxide (ITO) are presented. Here, the oxygen content of the material is locally decreased by CW YAG:Nd laser irradiation in hydrogen atmosphere. The dependences of resistance of metallized stripes versus laser beam power and beam scanning velocity are shown. Electrical conductivity of laser-written stripes was estimated 2–3 orders higher with respect to raw ITO film conductivity.
Keywords: laser processing, direct laser writing, laser-assisted reduction

Tirta indžio alavo oksido redukcija švitinant lazerio spinduliu. Deguonies koncentraciją pavyksta lokaliai sumažinti švitinant YAG:Nd lazeriu vandenilio atmosferoje. Gauta metalizuotų juostelių varžos priklausomybė nuo lazerio spinduliuotės galios ir spindulio slinkties greičio. Rasta, kad lazeriu išdegintų juostelių laidumas yra 2–3 eilėmis didesnis, nei pradinės nešvitintos plėvelės.
