Highly efficient and stable transparent electromagnetic interference shielding films based on silver nanowires

at a transmittance of 95.5%, better than that of commercial indium tin oxide (ITO). The excellent optoelectrical performance of the Ag NW/PDDA composite film is further ascertained by fitting the transmittance with the resistance, with a figure of merit of 443. The Ag NW/PDDA composite films in this study exhibit greatly improved stability during 25 °C/65% RH aging for 35 days with the assistance of the coverage layer. Moreover, the EMI SE of the Ag NW/PDDA composite films is 28 dB on average at a transmittance of 91.3%, and continuously increases to 31.3 dB while the optical transmittance is still maintained at 86.8%, which is superior to those of most reported transparent EMI shielding materials. Taken together, the excellent optical transmittance and EMI shielding performance of the Ag NW/PDDA composite film make it an outstanding transparent EMI shielding material in optoelectronic devices, such as aerospace equipment, medical devices, communication facilities, and electronic displays.
