Abstract

Flexible transparent conductive electrodes (FTCEs) are essential components for numerous optoelectronic devices. In this work, we have fabricated the hierarchical metal grids (HMG) FTCEs by a facile and low-cost, near-field photolithography strategy. Compared to normal metal grids (MG), the HMG structure can provide distinctly increased conductivity of the electrode yet without obvious reduction of the optical transmittance. This HMG sample possesses excellent optoelectronic performance and high mechanical flexibility, making it a promising component for practical applications.
