Bendy Copper Nanowires akin to foldable iPad

Signal's description

(approx. 150 words)
Please describe the Weak Signal (approx. 150 words)
Chemists have perfected a simple way to manufacture inexpensive copper nanowires in great quantities that are so small they are transparent. Applications could clearly be in thin-film solar cells, TVs, computers and other flexible displays.

Keywords

Copper nanowires, thin-film solar cells, manufacturing, felxible displays, nanowires
