Silver Nanowire Networks as Flexible, Transparent, Conducting Films: Extremely High DC to Optical Conductivity Ratios
Sukanta De,Thomas M. Higgins,Philip E. Lyons,Evelyn M. Doherty,Peter N. Nirmalraj,Werner J. Blau,John J. Boland,Jonathan N. Coleman +7 more
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.

Transparent conductors as solar energy materials: A panoramic review
TL;DR: Transparent conductors (TCs) have a multitude of applications for solar energy utilization and for energy savings, especially in buildings as discussed by the authors, which leads naturally to considerations of spectral selectivity, angular selectivity, and temporal variability of TCs, as covered in three subsequent sections.

Silver nanowire-based transparent, flexible, and conductive thin film
Caihong Liu,Xun Yu +1 more
TL;DR: It is found thatsilver nanowires are oxidized during the coating process, and incubation in hydrogen chloride (HCl) vapor can eliminate oxidized surface, and consequently, reduce largely the resistivity of silver nanowire thin films.

The fracture of brittle thin films on compliant substrates in flexible displays
TL;DR: In this article, the fracture toughness of the film and the delamination toughness have been estimated from controlled buckling experiments on the substrate and the film under both tension and compression, and design to maximize the flexibility of the device is discussed.
