AbstractLayer-by-layer (LbL) assembly was used to deposit transparent, highly conductive thin films using aqueous solutions of nanotubes stabilized by deoxycholate (DOC) and poly(diallyl-dimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA). Three different types of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were used: (1) multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs), (2) a mixture of single, di- and tri-walled nanotubes (XM grade) and (3) purified HiPCO single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). SWNTs produced the most transparent (> 85 %T across visible spectrum) and electrically conductive (˜ 150 S/cm) 20-bilayer films with 42 nm thickness. Moreover, optoelectronic performance of SWNT-based thin films was improved with heat treatment due to the removal of PDDA. A 20-bilayer SWNT LbL film achieved a conductivity of 369 S/cm with a 5 min exposure to 400 °C. This study demonstrates the ability of the LbL technique to produce highly transparent and conductive nanotube-based thin films, which may be useful for a variety of large area electronics applications.
