Electrospun metal fiber is a promising flexible transparent electrode owing to its extremely long length and facile fabrication process. However, metal-fiber electrodes have problems with chemical and thermal stability and nonuniform emission in organic light-emitting diode (OLED) at low luminance. In this study, we proposed a Ag fiber/IZO composite electrode with high stability. Ag fiber/IZO composite electrodes exhibited chemical and thermal stability. In addition, it was demonstrated that the OLED with the Ag fiber/IZO composite electrode operated stably, and the uniform emission of the OLED with metal-fiber electrodes improved by using highly conductive IZO film.

The need for photodetectors in various fields has gradually emerged, and several studies in this area are therefore being conducted. For photodetectors to be used in various environments, their transparency, flexibility, and durability must be ensured. However, the development of flexible photodetectors based on the current measurement techniques of conventional photodetectors has been difficult owing to the limitations of semiconductor materials. In this study, a new type of flexible and transparent capacitive photodetector was fabricated to address the shortcomings of conventional photodetectors. In addition, by introducing graphene electrodes to a new type of manufactured photodetector, devices with excellent overall chemical, thermal, and mechanical durability have been developed. Compared to photodetectors based on pristine Ag nanowire (AgNW) electrodes, AgNW/graphene hybrid electrode-based photodetectors exhibit a 20% higher photosensitivity. Also, the hybrid AgNW/graphene electrode on the dielectric layer exhibited low sheet resistance (~ 8 Ω/sq) and relatively high transmittance (~ 45%).
