Abstract

Abstract : The outstanding performance (sheet resistance of 5 Ω sq –1 at transmittance of 90%) and strongly adhesive (30.7 J m –2 ) silver nanowires (AgNWs) are fabricated using flash‐induced plasmonic welding (FPW) based on theoretical research of photothermal interactions. The FPW‐processed AgNWs are utilized as electrodes of a transparent flexible energy harvester, and this device exhibits excellent transmittance and high electric output performance. The FPW methodology provides a high‐tech solution for transparent flexible electronics.
