                            - World leading transparent electrode performance, the paper follows a patent submission (GB1706606). Led to the award of a KTP with PolarOLED on improving reliability of organic light emitting diodes using flexible silver nanowire electrodes. Led to collaboration with UPS2 ltd to upscale the process (CEO, john.allsop@ups2.co.uk), who supported two PhD students via the KESS program (www.kess2.ac.uk). Discussions ongoing with Samsung to commercialise the approach (m.boustany@samsung.com). The reliability studies conducted in the paper were modified for concentrator PVs in a follow-on InnovateUK project (£497k) with IQE, European Thermodynamics.
