Vapor dealloying of ultra-thin films: a promising concept for the fabrication of highly flexible transparent conductive metal nanomesh electrodes
Flexible transparent metal nanomeshes via vapor dealloying A simple chemical vapor treatment method has been developed to fabricate highly transparent and flexible conducting electrodes with Au-Cu alloy. A team of scientists led by Prof Abdel-Aziz El Mel from Université de Nantes, CNRS, France devel...
