Synthesis and application of silver and copper nanowires in high transparent solar cells
Abstract
Electrodes in new function-flexible optoelectronic devices, need to meet the requirements of foldability and high transmittance. In last decades, thousands of research about copper and silver nanowires promoted the prosperity of photovoltaic industry. In this paper, we focus on the recent progresses of silver and copper nanowires for high transparent solar cell application, including preparation and optimization techniques. In addition, the primary obstacles of nanowire transparent electrodes in perovskite solar cells, organic solar cells and dye sensitized solar cells were discussed. Finally, the application prospects of nanowire-based high transparent solar cells were outlined.
