Low Cost Copper Transparent Electrode Material (LOCUST)

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Transparent conductive electrode (TCE) is an essential component for solar cells and other devices such asdisplays, currently indium tin oxide (ITO) and silver are the prevailing choices. ITO and silver are howeverexpensive. ITO has limited supply, and tends to degrade in performance under stress, so ITO-replacementTCEs have attracted extensive interests in the past years. Promising possible replacements include lessexpensive transparent conductive oxides, carbon nanotubes (CNT) or graphene-based thin films, conductivepolymers, and metal grids based TCEs. This consortium aims to develop low cost and superior, sustainable Cunanowires based TCE for solar cells, and explore its application to other devices.Finance Summary Table – How to complete this section
