Silver Nanowire Networks as Flexible, Transparent, Conducting Films: Extremely High DC to Optical Conductivity Ratios

TL;DR: These nanowire films are electromechanically very robust, with all but the thinnest films showing no change in sheet resistance when flexed over >1000 cycles, which makes these films ideal as replacements for indium tin oxide as transparent electrodes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanical properties of ultrahigh-strength gold nanowires

TL;DR: It is found that for Au nanowires, Young's modulus is essentially independent of diameter, whereas the yield strength is largest for the smallest diameter wires, with strengths up to 100 times that of bulk materials, and substantially larger than that reported for bulk nanocrystalline metals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Graphene Dispersion and Exfoliation in Low Boiling Point Solvents

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate the exfoliation of graphene at relatively high concentration in low boiling point solvents such as chloroform and isopropanol, achieving concentrations of up to 0.5 mg/mL.
