Silver nanowires display potential as ITO replacement - Materials Today
Research recently published in Materials Today Communications and Scientific Reports describes how silver nanowires are proving to be the ideal material for flexible, touch-screen technologies, while also exploring how the material can be manipulated to tune its performance for other applications. Currently, touchscreen displays mainly rely on electrodes made from indium tin oxide (ITO), a material that is expensive to source and process, and very brittle.
