Original Abstract Submitted
The present disclosure provides a metal mesh array and a manufacturing method thereof, a thin film sensor and a manufacturing method thereof, and belongs to the field of electronic device technology. A method for manufacturing a metal mesh array includes: providing a base substrate; forming a first metal layer on the base substrate as a seed layer; forming a first interlayer dielectric layer on a side of the seed layer away from the base substrate such that the first interlayer dielectric layer includes first groove structures and second groove structures in working areas and arranged in an intersecting manner; and performing an electroplating process on the seed layer to form first metal lines in the first groove structures and second metal lines in the second groove structures. The first metal lines and second metal lines in each working area are arranged in an intersecting manner, thereby forming a metal mesh.
