<30nm Diameter >20um Length Silver Nanowires AgNWs for Flexible Display
Silver nanowires are constructed using silver nanowire (AgNW) technology, which offers an unmatched combination of performance, cost and durability.
Silver (Ag) – the most conductive material on the planet – can be synthesized into incredibly thin nanowires (NW). AgNW allows for minimal light interference, low haze and exceptional transmission, plus it’s extremely flexible and can be easily dispersed into inks for roll-to-roll coating on flexible substrates.
Silver nanowires hold promise for applications such as flexible displays and solar cells, but their susceptibility to damage from highly energetic UV radiation and harsh environmental conditions has limited their commercialization.
Devices made from silver nanowires and graphene could find uses in solar cells, flexible displays for computers and consumer electronics, and future "optoelectronic" circuits for sensors and information processing. The material is flexible and transparent, yet electrically conductive, and is a potential replacement for indium tin oxide, or ITO.
