Laser Heating of Composite TCF
- Summary
- Researchers at Purdue University have developed a laser heating of composite TCF composed of silver nanowires (Ag-NWs). This technology will help to form a high quality TCF on flexible substrate without melting the substrate at high temperatures. It will target laser assisted printing of a new nanocomposite material for TCF that will give higher quality than current technologies in both properties and cost.

- *Abstract
-
- *Background
- Transparent conducting film (TCF) is a critical component in displays including touch panel displays. Currently, there has been considerable research in using a printable technology for ITO or AZO films, but low sheet resistance has been unattainable.
