Abstract
Emerging technologies like the Internet of Things, printed and flexible electronics, and neural interfaces demand materials with exceptional properties. Laser processing offers a cost-effective and sustainable approach to creating conductive materials. We synthesized silver nanowires (AgNW) and used laser irradiation to enhance their properties. This led to sintering and partial melting of AgNW, significantly reducing sheet resistance. Furthermore, the laser melted the polymer interface, integrating AgNW and improving adhesion, allowing for flexible bending. The obtained high durable AgNW films on flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate with low sheet resistance 0.03 Ω/sq and great mechanical stability. This making it suitable for flexible electronics applications.
期刊介绍:
Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics is an international peer reviewed journal published with the participation of the Russian Academy of Sciences. It presents full-text articles (regular, letters to the editor, reviews) with the most recent results in miscellaneous fields of physics and astronomy: nuclear physics, cosmic rays, condensed matter physics, plasma physics, optics and photonics, nanotechnologies, solar and astrophysics, physical applications in material sciences, life sciences, etc. Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics focuses on the most relevant multidisciplinary topics in natural sciences, both fundamental and applied. Manuscripts can be submitted in Russian and English languages and are subject to peer review. Accepted articles are usually combined in thematic issues on certain topics according to the journal editorial policy. Authors featured in the journal represent renowned scientific laboratories and institutes from different countries, including large international collaborations. There are globally recognized researchers among the authors: Nobel laureates and recipients of other awards, and members of national academies of sciences and international scientific societies.
