Transparent electrodes

Highly conductive & stretchable PEDOT:PSS

AH-PTE0AH-PTE1AH-PTE-S

Water-based PEDOT:PSS for coated transparent electrodes with low sheet resistance and ~90 % transmittance. AH-PTE1 adds high stretchability; AH-PTE-S is a more homogeneous grade of AH-PTE1.

Stretchability of AH-PTE1

At 100 % strain the AH product stays near its initial resistance, while reference films crack.

Photos of films at 0 % and 100 % strain. References A and B crack at 100 % strain, while the AH product stays nearly intact
