Abstract

The development of flexible transparent electrode has been paid attention for flexible electronics. In this study, we have developed transparent electrode based on silver nanowires with improved electrical property and stability through ion-beam treatment. The energetic particles of ion-beam could sinter junctions of each silver nanowires and etch out polyvinylpyrollidone(PVP) coated on silver nanowires. The sheet resistance of silver nanowire transparent electrode was reduced by 74%, and the resistance uniformity was increased about 3 times after exposure of ion beam. Moreover, the stability at $85^{circ}C$ of temperature and 85% of relative humidity could be also improved.
