Abstract: This disclosure includes, and results in the creation of, a printed carbon nanotube and/or graphene hybrid antenna and/or EMI shield, comprised of a conductive layer that comprises a metal mesh (MM) layer or a nanowire layer on a substrate, with a printed Signal Enhancement Layer (SEL) on the conductive layer. The SEL includes an ink that includes one or both of carbon nanotube (CNT) and graphene. The circuit pattern results after the “exposed” conductive layer (i.e., the regions where the CNT/graphene ink is not printed) is removed via chemical etching or mechanical cutting. The structure (the antenna/EMI shield) is preferably but not necessarily transparent.
