Fully solution processed Ag NWs/ZnO TF/ZnO NR composite electrodes with tunable light scattering properties for thin-film solar cells

Silver nanowire (Ag NWs) films are promising alternatives to conventional indium tin oxide transparent electrodes (TE) for display and solar cells applications. Higher haze factor is one essential factor for TE using in solar cells application. In this work, a controlled ZnO nanorods (NR) were grown on Ag NWs/ZnO seed layers by the hydrothermal method with highly tunable control of the scattering properties (haze) by Ag NWs and ZnO NR a s two...
