This paper introduces a simple hydrazine treatment method to reduce the yellowing of silver nanowire transparent conductive electrodes. To investigate the effects of hydrazine treatment on the yellowing of silver nanowire electrodes, the optical and electrical properties of silver nanowire electrodes were analyzed before and after hydrazine treatment. The optimal hydrazine treatment conditions were investigated by varying the concentration and thickness of hydrazine; the effect of hydrazine treatment on the long-term stability of silver nanowires was also analyzed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
