Supersonic spray produces nanomaterials for wearable electronics

Researchers from the University of Illinois at Chicago and Korea University have developed an ultrathin, highly conductive nanomaterial produced by a supersonic spray, according to the study published in Advanced Functional Materials. The bendable, stretchable film could be used to develop wearable electronics.

The film is composed of fused silver nanowires, made by spraying nanowire particles through a jet nozzle at supersonic speed. The resulting film has the electrical conductivity of silver-plate and the transparency of glass, the team reported.
