The disclosed invention relates to a method of manufacturing an electronic device having a chip and/or an antenna, such as a contactless or hybrid or label chip card. The electronic device includes at least one decorative sheet having a visible outer face, and at least one interface comprising an antenna. The method includes a step in which the antenna is formed on that face of the decorative sheet which is opposite its visible outer face by screen-printing using a conductive ink. The invention also relates to the resulting electronic device.

1. A method of manufacturing an electronic device having a chip and an interface comprising an antenna, said electronic device including at least one decorative sheet having a visible outside face, said method including the following steps: printing graphics on the visible outside face of the decorative sheet; subsequently forming the antenna on a face of the decorative sheet which is opposite said visible outside face by screen-printing a conductive ink that has a metal particle content lying in the range approximately 60% to 95% in a polymer matrix and a solvent; and partially drying the ink at a temperature lower than a predetermined optimum drying temperature. 2. A method according to claim 1, further including the step in which at least one layer of insulating material is disposed on said opposite face of the decorative sheet so as to cover at least part of the antenna. 3. A method according to claim 2, wherein the layer of insulating material is formed by one of the processes of hot-rolling a second sheet, cold-rolling a second sheet, injection-molding or sputtering. 4. A method according to claim 2, further including the step of establishing a connection between the interface and a chip before the layer of insulating material is formed. 5. A method according to claim 2, further including the step of establishing a connection between the interface and a chip after the layer of insulating material is formed. 6. A method according to claim 1, wherein the decorative sheet is made of a polymer material. 7. A method according to claim 1, wherein the ink includes silver particles at a content lying in the range 70% to 85%. 8. A method according to claim 1, wherein said decorative sheet has a thickness of less than 600 μm. 9. A method according to claim 8, wherein said sheet has a thickness lying in. the range of 15 μm to 100 μm. 10. A method according to claim 1, wherein the decorative sheet is made of paper. 11. A method according to claim 1, wherein said screen-printing step is performed on a machine that includes a table which has undergone surface smoothing treatment. 12. A method according to claim 11, wherein said surface smoothing treatment includes anodization. 13. A method according to claim 11, wherein said surface smoothing treatment includes a non-stick coating selected from the group consisting of tetrafluoroethylene fluorocarbon polymers and fluorinated ethylene-propylene resins. 14. A method according to claim 1, wherein said conductive ink is dried in an oven provided with a meshed mat, and a protective plate is inserted between said meshed mat and the screen-printed decorative sheet. 15. A method according to claim 14, wherein the meshed mat is made of a plastic material. 16. A method according to claim 14, wherein the meshed mat is made of stainless steel. 17. A method according to claim 14, wherein the drying oven is provided with belts of plastic tape. 18. A method according to claim 1, further including the initial steps of forming a plurality of antennas simultaneously on a decorative base sheet, and cutting said sheet to obtain a plurality of decorative sheets. 19. The method of claim 1, wherein said decorative sheet comprises at least one of PVC and ABS, and said drying temperature is in a range of 50° C. to 80° C. 20. The method of claim 1, wherein said decorative sheet comprises at least one of PC and PET, and said drying temperature is in a range of 120° C. to 130° C.
