Efficient Organic Solar Cells with Solution-Processed Silver Nanowire Electrodes

摘要

The demand for printed electronic devices on plastic substrates has generated a need for solution-processable flexible electrodes with high transparency and low sheet resistance. Conducting polymers, metal inks, nanoparticulate metal oxides, carbon nanotubes, and graphene have been investigated as potential alternatives to brittle indium tin oxide (ITO), but none can yet compete in terms of transparency and sheet resistance.
