Abstract

Display Components & Materials Research Center, Korea Electronics Technology Institute, 25, Saenari-ro, Bundang-gu, Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do, Korea(Received March 21, 2015: Corrected March 24, 2015: Accepted March 26, 2015)Abstract: Recently, advances in nano-material researches have opened the door for various transparent conductivematerials, which include carbon nanotube, graphene, Ag and Cu nanowire, and printable metal grids. Among them, Agnanowires are particularly interesting to synthesize because bulk Ag exhibits the highest electrical conductivity amongall metals. Here we reviewed recently-published research works introducing various devices from organic light emittingdiode to tactile sensing devices, all of which are employing AgNW for a conducting material. They proposed methodsto enhance the stretchability and reversibility of the transparent electrodes, and apply them to make various flexible andstretchable electronics. It is expected that Ag nanowires are applicable to a wide range of high-performance, low-cost,stretchable electronic devices.Keywords: Ag nano wire, Transparent electrode, Flexible electronics, Stretchable electronics
