Abstract:
As the working environment becomes more complex, the visualization of windows in electronic devices increasingly requires transparent and flexible electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding films. There is a need for materials with EMI shielding properties, while maintaining excellent high light transmission and good thermal insulation. However, the preparation of such multifunctional materials remains challenging due to the respective mechanisms of action of the different properties. Herein, a multilayer structure strategy is proposed to fabricate transparent and flexible indium tin oxide (ITO)/silver nanowire (AgNW) composite films, achieving a multifunctional integration of high light transmission, strong EMI shielding, and good thermal insulation properties of the composite films. Simultaneously, the layered structure was designed and the potential optimization mechanism of the EMI shielding performance of the composite film was analyzed, providing great flexibility for the preparation of transparent composite films. The combination of excellent EMI shielding performance, outstanding near-infrared shielding performance, and high light transmittance makes the ITO/AgNW (IA) composite films promising for abundant potential applications.
