Cambrios to Highlight Silver Nanowire-Based Conductive Coating Material at Display Week 2013

During Display Week 2013, Cambrios executives will deliver four presentations, each of which will detail the characteristics and benefits of Cambrios’ silver nanowire-based ClearOhm™ transparent conductive coating material. The presentations will reveal how and why ClearOhm material is emerging as the leading alternative to indium tin oxide (ITO) in three distinct markets: mobile devices, large-area touch panels and OLED lighting.

Plasmonic-Enhanced Organic PV Materials Less Expensive Than Traditional Solar Cells

Most Americans want the U.S. to place more emphasis on developing solar power, recent polls suggest. A major impediment, however, is the cost to manufacture, install and maintain solar panels. Simply put, most people and businesses cannot afford to place them on their rooftops.

Nanoscientists Analyze Herringbone Pattern of Self-Assembling Nanoplates

Leading nanoscientists created beautiful, tiled patterns with flat nanocrystals, but they were left with a mystery: Why did some sets of crystals arrange themselves in an alternating, herringbone style? To find out, they turned to experts in computer simulation at the University of Michigan and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
