Metal Nanowire-Coated Metal Woven Mesh for High-Performance Stretchable Transparent Electrodes.
2017
This work presents a new template-assisted fabrication method to obtain stretchable metal grids for high-performance stretchable transparent conducting electrodes (TCEs). Readily accessible metal woven mesh (MWM) is used as a template to make the fabrication process simple, cost-effective, reproducible, and potentially scalable by combining it with silver nanowire (AgNW) coating and elastomer filling processes. Stretchable TCEs are made with the AgNW-coated MWM and show remarkable optoelectronic performance with a sheet resistance of ∼3.2 Ω/sq and optical transmittance of >80%, large maximum stretchability of 40%, and electrical and mechanical robustness even under repeated stretching and bending deformations (1000 cycles). The device is demonstrated in a highly flexible touch screen panel that can operate well even in a bent state.
