Transparent conductors exist [link].
Why not use one of these materials for the window into a
microwave oven, instead of a piece of metal mesh?

Possible answer to your question: they are not conductive
enough. Modern electronic gadgets with touchscreen only
need to handle milliwatts of power; microwave ovens
routinely employ hundreds of watts of power. |

A composite of wires fine enough and the conducting film might make things a bit clearer. |
|

Now can we have the same for the Faraday cage I have set up
around my lab? |

There's a patent for microwave glasses that have two transparent conductive films, spaced 1/4 wavelength apart. |

These glasses, if you wear them, you can see in the microwave band, right ? That would be cool ... |

Is there a choice of frames ? Maybe Ray-Ban Wayfarers ? |
