기판 상에 코팅되는 도전층을 포함하는 투명 도전체가 개시된다. 더 상세하게는 그러한 도전층은 매트릭스 내에 매몰될 수 있는 나노와이어들의 네트워크를 포함한다. 그러한 도전층은 광학적으로 투명하고 연성이다. 그것은 연성 및 경성 기판들을 포함하는 다양한 기판들 상에 코팅되거나 적층될 수 있다. Disclosed herein is a method of fabricating a transparent conductor which comprises depositing a plurality of metal nanowires on a surface of a substrate, the metal nanowires being dispersed in a liquid; and forming a metal nanowire network layer on the substrate by allowing the liquid to dry, depositing a matrix material on the metal nanowire network layer, and curing the matrix material to form a matrix, the matrix and the metal nanowires embedded therein forming a conductive layer, wherein the substrate is flexible, and wherein the substrate is driven by a rotating reel along a traveling path, and the metal nanowires are deposited at a first deposition station along the traveling path, and the matrix material is deposited at a second deposition station along the traveling path.
