This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project aims to develop commercially viable processes to fabricate low-cost large-area transparent conducting films (TCFs) using solution phase synthesis and self-assembly on both rigid and flexible substrates. Material synthesis, nanomaterial dispersion formulation and deposition techniques will be studied to improve both the transparency and conductivity of the TCFs to be competitive with commonly used transparent conductors such as Indium-Tin-Oxide (ITO). The broader/commercial impact of this project will be the potential to provide low-cost, highly-conductive and transparent films as a replacement of ITO. Such TCFs can be used in a broad range of commercial applications including liquid crystal displays (LCD), plasma displays, touch screens, organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), antistatic coatings, electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and photovoltaics. The processes and methods to be developed would also improve the understanding of the material interactions at the nanoscale and impact other technical areas such as printing electronics.

这个小企业创新研究（SBIR）第一阶段项目旨在开发商业上可行的工艺，利用固相合成和自组装在刚性和柔性基板上制造低成本的大面积透明导电薄膜（tcf）。将研究材料合成、纳米材料分散配方和沉积技术，以提高tcf的透明度和导电性，使其与常用的透明导体（如铟锡氧化物（ITO））竞争。该项目更广泛的商业影响将是提供低成本、高导电性和透明薄膜作为ITO替代品的潜力。这种tcf可用于广泛的商业应用，包括液晶显示器（LCD），等离子显示器，触摸屏，有机发光二极管（oled），抗静电涂层，电磁干扰（EMI）屏蔽和光伏。待开发的工艺和方法也将提高对纳米级材料相互作用的理解，并影响印刷电子等其他技术领域。
