[IEEE 2018 International Flexible Electronics Technology Conference (IFETC) - Ottawa, ON, Canada (2018.8.7-2018.8.9)] 2018 International Flexible Electronics Technology Conference (IFETC) - Improving The Adhesion Between Silver Nanowire Transparent Electrode and PET Film Using a Crosslinkable Polymer

摘要： Silver nanowires, carbon nanotubes and graphenes have found applications for flexible electronics. The adhesion and the patterning of those materials on polymer substrates have been a challenge. This paper reports a novel approach for the improvement of the adhesion between silver nanowires and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film by using a thermally crosslinkable polymer. The technique was found very efficient in improving the adhesion between silver nanowires and PET substrates.
