Abstract

ABSTRACT: A new graphene/silver nanowire (AgNW) hybrid transparent conductive films (TCFs) was prepared by wet-transferring a chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-grown monolayer graphene onto pristine spin coating AgNW network. It has been demostrated that concentration, diameter and spin speed of AgNW are three effective approaches to adjust sheet resistance, optical transmittance and surface mophology. The graphene/AgNW hybrid TCFs exhibited excellent optical and electrical properties as well as good surface mophology because of the uniform AgNW network coated on the substrate. We anticipate that the highly conductive transparent graphene/AgNW hybrid TCFs have huge potential in high-performance emerging optoelectronic devices such as OLEDs, LCDs, and OSCs.
