Thin films made from silver nanowires are 4,000 times more conductive than films made from other nanoparticle shapes, like spheres or microflakes, says a new study. The results indicate that conductive ‘inks’ made from silver nanowires may create functioning electronic circuits without applying high temperatures, enabling printable electronics on heat-sensitive … http://internationalnewslive.com/nanowire-inks-enable-paper-based-printable-electronics/
