A method to produce scalable, low-resistance, high-transparency, percolating networks of silver nanowires by spray coating is presented. By optimizing the spraying parameters, networks with a sheet resistance of R(s) ≈ 50 Ω □(-1) at a transparency of T = 90% can be produced. The critical processing parameter is shown to be the spraying pressure. Optimizing the pressure reduces the droplet size resulting in more uniform networks. High uniformity leads to a low percolation exponent, which is essential for low-resistance, high-transparency films.read more

Contact line deposits in an evaporating drop
TL;DR: A theory is described that predicts the flow velocity, the rate of growth of the ring, and the distribution of solute within the drop that is driven by the loss of solvent by evaporation and the geometrical constraint that the drop maintain an equilibrium droplet shape with a fixed boundary.
