A telescopic electric conductor includes an electrically conductive first tube having a longitudinal axis and an electrically conductive second tube movable relative to the first tube along the longitudinal axis while being at least partly received within the first tube. An electrically conductive flexible self-supporting element is arranged inside the first tube and is mechanically and electrically connected to the first tube and to the second tube. The flexible element is arranged to elastically deform along the longitudinal axis. The flexible element has a waveform shape with several cycles of the waveform includes a number of sections that are welded together, each section having a shape of a half cycle of the waveform.

The present application provides a conductive film, a manufacturing method of the conductive film, and a display device. The present application prevents refracted light by using a first metal layer to fully cover a second metal layer of a middle layer, thereby fundamentally solving black level stripes caused by lateral etching of the second metal layer.

At least one embodiment relates to a method for transforming at least part of a valve metal layer into a template that includes a plurality of spaced channels aligned longitudinally along a first direction. The method includes a first anodization step that includes anodizing the valve metal layer in a thickness direction to form a porous layer that includes a plurality of channels. Each channel has channel walls and a channel bottom. The channel bottom is coated with a first insulating metal oxide barrier layer as a result of the first anodization step. The method also includes a protective treatment. Further, the method includes a second anodization step after the protective treatment. The second anodization step substantially removes the first insulating metal oxide barrier layer, induces anodization, and creates a second insulating metal oxide barrier layer. In addition, the method includes an etching step.
