Abstract

In this study, we analyze the optical and electrical properties of silver nanowires/indium tin oxide transparent conductive electrode (TCE). Silver nanowire was synthesized by polyol method. ITO was deposited by direct-current sputtering. The diameter and length of the synthesized silver nanowire are in the range of 40-70 nm and 5-30 μm, respectively. The silver nanowire TCEs have a rather high resistance (~ 210 Ω /). After a layer of indium tin oxide sputtered on silver nanowire TCE, the resistance dropped sharply (~ 30.1 Ω/◻) corresponding to 84.1% transmittance at 550 nm. The figure of merit of this TCE is 68.3. This result shows that the fabricated silver naowire/indium tin oxide TCEs have great potential in application as window electrodes for solar cells and LED devices.
