Abstract

In this study, the fabrication of transparent CNT/AgNW multilayer electrodes on PET substrates using a spray coating process is investigated. A CNT/AgNW multilayer electrode exhibited a Rsh of 50 Ω/square with a transparency of 94% at 500 ~ 550nm wavelength without substrate. We examined the effects of the sheet resistance and transparency of CNT/AgNW multilayer electrodes based on the performance of the OSC cells. The use of sprayed CNT/AgNW multilayer electrodes will advance the mass production of inexpensive and highly efficient flexible polymer organic solar-cell based films using a roll-to-roll based process.
