Resistance of Single Ag Nanowire Junctions and Their Role in the Conductivity of Nanowire Networks.
TL;DR: This paper presents for the first time a distribution of junction resistance values and proves that the junction contribution to the overall resistance can be reduced beyond that of the wires through standard processing techniques, and demonstrates the important role played by the network skeleton and the specific connectivity of the network in determining network performance.
