Silver-based electrode films tagged posts

The researchers used an approach called colloidal lithography to create a silver nanopattern that conducts electricity while letting light through the holes. The new transparent electrode films could be useful for solar cells as well as flexible displays and touch screens. Credit: Jes Linnet, University of Southern Denmark

Silver-based electrode films could be used for flexible touch displays, televisions and solar cells. Researchers have demonstrated large-scale fabrication of a new type of transparent conductive electrode film based on nanopatterned silver. Smartphone touch screens and flat panel televisions use transparent electrodes to detect touch and to quickly switch the color of each pixel...
