| Abstract: | A new simplified low temperature deposition method to manufacture flexible transparent conductive electrodes (FTCE) based on conductive polymer composite filled with silver nanowires (AgNWs) was investigated. Polyurethane/AgNWs composite was deposed on a poly(ethylene terephthalate) substrate as a conductive paint in a thin layer lower than 2 μm. The high aspect ratio nanowires influence on the electrical behavior is followed with surface resistivity and optical transparency experiments. The best compromise was obtained with a conductive layer filled with 2.84 vol.% of AgNWs; it exhibits a surface resistivity of 143 Ω/sq with 73% in transmittance. These transparent conductive composites processing in one step with good touching manipulation resistance demonstrate the real interest for this kind of FTCEs technology without indium tin oxide. |
