Abstract
A novel transparent heater (TH) composed of reduced graphene oxide (RGO)/metal mesh with enhanced heating performance and temperature uniformity, was prepared by thermal reduction in a tube furnace. The synergistic effect between the RGO layer and Cu/Ag mesh effectively improved the electrical properties of the RGO/mesh composite structure. Consequently, the TH demonstrated an efficient electrothermal performance (stable response temperature of 150 °C at 1.8 V) and more uniform surface temperature distribution. This work contributes to the development of composite TH devices for practical applications.
