Abstract
A method of fabricating a composite conductive film is provided. The method includes providing, as a matrix, a layer of cross-linkable polymer while the cross-linkable polymer is in a substantially noncross-linked state. The method further includes introducing a plurality of inorganic nanowires onto a surface of the layer of cross-linkable polymer and embedding at least some of the plurality of inorganic nanowires into the layer of cross-linkable polymer to form an inorganic mesh within the layer of cross-linkable polymer, thereby forming the composite conductive film. The method further includes cross-linking the cross-linkable polymer within at least a surface portion of the composite conductive film, wherein following the cross-linking, the cross-linkable polymer within at least the surface portion of the composite conductive film is in a cross-linked state.
