A Water‐Based Silver‐Nanowire Screen‐Print Ink for the Fabrication of Stretchable Conductors and Wearable Thin‐Film Transistors

A water-based silver-nanowire (AgNW) ink is formulated for screen printing. Screen-printed AgNW patterns have uniform sharp edges, ≈50 μm resolution, and electrical conductivity as high as 4.67 × 104 S cm−1. The screen-printed AgNW patterns are used to fabricate a stretchable composite conductor, and a fully printed and intrinsically stretchable thin-film transistor array is also realized.
