Cu Mesh for Flexible Transparent Conductive Electrodes

Copper electrodes with a micromesh/nanomesh structure were fabricated on a polyimide substrate using UV lithography and wet etching to produce flexible transparent conducting electrodes (TCEs). Well-defined mesh electrodes were realized through the use of high-quality Cu thin films. The films were fabricated using radio-frequency (RF) sputtering with a single-crystal Cu target--a simple but inn...

All-Carbon Electrodes for Flexible Solar Cells

Transparent electrodes based on carbon nanomaterials have recently emerged as new alternatives to indium tin oxide (ITO) or noble metal in organic photovoltaics (OPVs) due to their attractive advantages, such as long-term stability, environmental friendliness, high conductivity, and low cost. However, it is still a challenge to apply all-carbon electrodes in OPVs. Here, we report our efforts to...

Carbon Nanoparticles on Carbon Fabric for Flexible and HighPerformance Field Emitters

Carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) are grown on fl exible carbon fabric via a simple and low-cost fl ame synthesis process. The entire struture of the carbon fabric substrate retains its high fl exibility after the growth of CNPs and can even be rolled-up and twisted to a large degree without affecting the electric characteristics. No appreciable changes in the conductance can be observed under differ...
