Abstract

Abstract : We report the facile assembly of a Ag/TiN nanofiber network with considerable optoelectronical performance as a new platform for transparent electrodes. Abstract : By homogeneously incorporating Ag into a conductive TiN matrix, ultra high electrical conductivity of 1181 S cm −1 was achieved in hybrid Ag/TiN nanofibers. In comparison to the state-of-the-art pure Ag nanowire transparent electrodes, the cost-saving Ag/TiN nanofiber network exhibited comparable optoelectronical performance. This newly developed material may serve as an alternative for cost-efficient transparent electrodes.
