Abstract
Flexible electrodes with high conductivity and transparence are still great challenges in the fabrication of stretchable optoelectronic devices. In this experiment,we demonstrated a flexible hybrid electrode based on reduced graphene oxide( RGO) and silver nanowires( Ag NW). The RGO was prepared by thermal reduction and hydrazine reduction of graphene oxide to partially remove the oxygen-containing groups and to restore its electrical properties. We employed Ag NW to restore the defects in RGO films,such as grain boundaries and wrinkles,to improve the conductivity of the electrodes. By optimizing the processing conditions,the flexible hybrid electrode exhibited excellent optical and electrical characteristics as well as mechanical flexibility. The optical transmittance and sheet resistance of the hybrid electrode were 62% at 550 nm and 420 Ω / □. The RGO /Ag NW hybrid electrode shows the potential for a wide range of flexible and stretchable optoelectronic device applications.
