Abstract: A variety of methods, devices, systems and arrangements are implemented involving nanowire meshes. One such method is implemented to include synthesizing metal nanowires in a solution containing a structure-directing agent. The metal nanowires are deposited on a substrate to form a sheet of nanowires. The deposited metal nanowires are heated to a temperature less than about 200 degrees Celsius and for a period of time of about 10 minutes to 60 minutes, thereby removing the structure-directing agent and modifying the electrical conductivity and optical transmittance of the sheet of nanowires.

Abstract: A color filter and a fabrication method thereof are provided. In the method, color filter ink that includes wax beads is ejected by an inkjet printing process. A black matrix defining R/G/B pixels is formed on a first surface of a substrate and transparent electrodes are formed on a second surface of the substrate opposite to the first surface at positions corresponding to the R/G/B pixels. The fabricated color filter ink is injected into an inkjet head, and the color filter ink is ejected from the inkjet head into each of the R/G/B pixels. A predetermined voltage is applied between the inkjet head and the transparent electrode such that the ejected color filter ink is precisely injected into each of the R/G/B pixels.
