Efficient PVP Replacement for Silver Nanowires Developed
12 Nov 2025 | Category: Science
Researchers at UNIST have introduced a straightforward yet efficient technique to substitute the insulating layer, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), that envelops silver nanowires (AgNWs), resulting in significantly enhanced electrical conductivity and improved durability.
A simple spin-coating process replaces an insulating layer with a conductive one, improving durability and efficiency in flexible electronics.
