The fabrication of transparent, conductive, and uniform silver nanowire films using the scalable rod-coating technique is described in this study. Properties of the transparent conductive thin films are investigated, as well as the approaches to improve the performance of transparent silver nanowire electrodes. It is found that silver nanowires are oxidized during the coating process. Incubatio...

The physical characteristics of ultrasonically sprayed indium-doped zinc oxide (ZnO:In) thin films, with electrical resistivity as low as 3.42 × 10-3 Ω·cm and high optical transmittance, in the visible range, of 50%-70% is presented. Zinc acetylacetonate and indium chloride were used as the organometallic zinc precursor and the doping source, respectively, achieving ZnO:In thin films with growt...

In this work, we report a simple and scalable solution-based method to deposit nanoscale material thin films. We have demonstrated uniform thin films fabricated by a flash dry deposition method, including carbon nanotubes and polyaniline nanofibers. The films are electrically uniform across an entire area of 8 inches by 8 inches in size. This method can be applied to other nanoscale materials a...

The mechanism of charge carrier transport in the tin doped indium oxide (ITO)/polymer/Cu structure was studied for first time, where thin films poly(arylene ether ketone), which has properties electronic switching from insulating to highly conductive state, were used. system under study can be considered as a model current-collecting contact solar cell with ITO top layer. Keywords: transparent ...

Highly transparent and conductive thin films of SnO2:F and In2O3:Sn (ITO) have been prepared on glass substrates using the simple pyrolitic (spray) method. Through an exhaustive parameter study and using as diagnostic method for the film quality a figure of merit defined as a function of both, the transmittance and the electric resistivity, the conditions to prepare the SnO2:F and ITO films, wi...

Abstract Designing and fabricating high-performance transparent conductive oxides (TCOs) is an attractive area for optoelectronic devices that require both high transparency electrical conductivity. In this study, we introduce a hydrogen doping of indium oxide (IHO) as TCO material with enhanced while maintaining conductivity by optimizing the carrier mobility, concentration, thickness. The typ...

Deep UV transparent thin films have recently attracted considerable attention owing to their potential in and organic-based optoelectronics. Here, we report the achievement of a deep highly conductive film based on Si-doped Ga2O3 (SGO) with high conductivity 2500 S/cm. The SGO exhibit transparency over wide spectrum ranging from visible light wavelength and, meanwhile, very low work-function ap...

There is a great need for viable alternatives to today's transparent conductive film using largely indium tin oxide. We report the fabrication of a new type of flexible transparent conductive film using silver nanowires (AgNW) and single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) networks which are fully embedded in a UV curable resin substrate. The hybrid SWCNTs-AgNWs film is relatively flat so that the R...
