Copper nanowires have the potential to replace indium tin oxide( ITO) in making thin-film solar cells, flat-screen TVs, cellphones and foldable electronics.
The films that currently connect pixels in electronic screen are made of ITO. It is highly transparent, which transmits the information well. But the ITO film is inefficient and very brittle. The price of ITO is also a problem because indium is a rare element and it costs $800/Kg. One alternative is silver nanowires, but the price and silver diffusion are two concerns regarding their wide applications.
Copper nanowires will solve such problems. The new technique organizes copper atoms in water to form long, thin, "non-clumped" nanowires that are then transport into transparent conductive films and coated onto glass or plastic substrates. They shares all the useful properties of ITO. What's more, they are at least a thousand times more resistant to break and hundreds times cheaper than ITO. They also might be a good basis for foldable electronics. On top of that they are a lot easier and faster to produce. In the next few years, copper nanowires could be in screen and solar cells, which could lead to lighter and more reliable displays and make solar energy more competitive with fossil fuels.
