Abstract: Flexible transparent conductive films (TCFs) and their applications have attracted extensive interest. Silver nanowires (AgNWs) have been explored to replace conventional indium tin oxide (ITO) due to their high optical transmittance and superior electrical conductivity. Nevertheless, AgNWs tend to oxidize under ambient conditions, which weakens the conductive network and limits long-term performance. Spraying reduced graphene oxide (rGO) can stabilize the conductive network and inhibit oxidation, thereby enhancing the overall properties of the films. In this work, rGO/AgNW/PET TCFs were prepared using a spray-coating approach. The transmittance of the rGO/AgNW/PET TCFs was measured at 77% at 550 nm, accompanied by a sheet resistance of 6.8 Ω/sq. The films achieved the surface temperature of 95 °C at 6 V with stable operation while also achieving an electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness of 27 dB. This structural design improves both performance and stability, offering great potential for flexible TCFs in advanced optoelectronic applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
