We develop a method to pattern silver nanowire (AgNW) electrode by using DUV lamp to directly write on indium–zinc-oxide capped AgNW. The patterned electrodes keep good conducting property on flexible polyimide substrate after 1000-times bending.

AbstractInvestigation of the properties of indium zinc oxide (IZO) thin films sputter-deposited on LCD-grade glass substrate showed that the resistivity of an IZO film decreases markedly as the substrate temperature is increased from room-temperature to 120°C. This phenomenon can be attributed to the growth of In-Zn intermetallic compounds in the amorphous region as a result of annealing. The compound growth was observed by plan-view transmission electron microscopy.Although the transmittance and resistivity of IZO are inferior to those of indium-tin oxide, these disadvantages do not present any difficulties in the practical use of IZO for designing TFT-LCDs. Since IZO is an amorphous material, we propose a five-mask process with this characteristic.

Abstract In realistic applications, silver nanowires (AgNWs) are encapsulated in optoelectrical devices to function as transparent conductors and electrodes. Environmental stressors along with the essential electrical stress are inevitably harmful to the AgNWs inside the devices. Herein, to investigate the degradation behavior discrepancy between materials-level and device-level tests, we adopted pseudo-module to mimic the encapsulation. The pseudo-module allows the application of electrical stress and facilitates the interim specimen access for materials characterization through assembly-disassembly. Indoor accelerated and outdoor weathering tests with applied electrical stress to the pseudo-module encapsulated AgNW networks were performed. The impaired optoelectrical properties and morphological changes of AgNWs due to multiple or individual stressor(s) are investigated. Results indicate UVA exposure at elevated temperature coupled with electrical stress is responsible for the electrical failure of AgNW networks. Sulfidation that depresses optical transparency of AgNW networks is prone to occur at lower temperature. This work provides unambiguous degradation behaviors of AgNWs inside encapsulants, helping to improve the design of AgNWs related optoelectrical devices in the applications of solar irradiation environments.
