Electrically conducting and optically transparent nanowire networks

摘要

A network of nanowires has a plurality of interconnected nanowires. Each interconnected nanowire includes a metal in its composition. The network of nanowires is electrically conducting and substantially transparent to visible light. An electronic or electro-optic device has a network of nanowires. The network of nanowires has a plurality of interconnected nanowires, each interconnected nanowire including a metal in its composition. The network of nanowires is electrically conducting and substantially transparent to visible light. A metal-oxide nanowire has a metal oxide doped with a second metal in a composition thereof. The metal-oxide nanowire is electrically conducting and substantially transparent to visible light.
