Novel Conductive Coatings of Carbon Nanotubes: A Fundamental Study

Abstract

Among several CNT samples we tested, the best performance result we have achieved is with metallic SWNT (m- SWNT) coated on PEN (poly-ethylene-naphthalate) transparent composite film: it gave conductivity of 1 30/sq with 80% transmittance at 400-700nm wavelength range. In contrast,, current commercially available single side inorganic, brittle ITO coated PET film gave 88/sq with 80% transmittance. Our sample mentioned above was prepared with double side coating using a dipping method.
