To avoid corrosion in sea water environment and conductive failures under external loads, a highly durable and anti-corrosion film with sandwich structure embedded with silver nanowires was fabricated as a flexible strain sensor. The effects of film size and ambient temperature on the conductivity of the sensor were studied separately. The silver nanowire-embedded strain sensor showed high durability and remained stable even after multiple bending. The PDMS coating could prevent the conductive layer from the external environment effectively. It is found that the sensor can be used effectively in sea water condition. Furthermore, the sensor connected on the steel sheet was applied in the real-time detection of microstrain in the tensile test, and the relationship between ΔR/R0 and strain illustrated high linear relationship and sensitivity. The good durability and anti-corrosion property of the conductive film showed the highly potential application to be used as a flexible strain sensor in salt-water condition.

For the reliable applications of silver nanowires, AgNW, which is used as a conductive transparent film in electronic devices, the isothermal degradation behaviors of AgNW films with and without overcoating were investigated. Accelerated isothermal degradation was performed as a function of temperature, time, and atmosphere. Electrical resistance and optical transmittance were measured and correlated with the microstructural damages, such as formation of oxide particles and fragmentations of AgNW, which were quantitatively determined from the scanning electron micrographs. The overcoating retarded the formation of oxide particles and subsequent fragmentations as well as resulting degradation in electrical resistance without affecting the optical transmittance.

Purpose: The article deals with one of the completely new groups of composite inorganic nanostructured materials used in the form of surface layers, characterised by unique properties, such as transparency over 84.4% in the field of visible light waves, anti-reflective and electrical properties comparable to semiconductors. Design/methodology/approach: A technology for producing such layers containing not less than 5% of silver nanowires by mixing a colloid containing silver nanowires from fragmented agglomerates by ultrasound homogeniser with the polymer dissolved in chloroform with good bonding to the polymer matrix and of good quality was developed. Findings: It was shown that increasing the content of silver nanowires to 30% in composite layers causes an increase in the refractive coefficient from 1.9 to 2.2 and a decrease in light transmission from 88.1 to 81.9% and a decrease in the value of light reflection from 11.1% up to 6.7%. With an increased content of silver nanowires, these layers show better electrical properties, and the width of the energy gap is reduced from 3.93 eV to 1.60 eV. Composite layers with a mass fraction greater than 5% of silver nanowires show properties analogous to semiconductors despite the metallic nature of their conductivity. Research limitations/implications: The use of silver nanowires as a reinforcement of transparent nanocomposite layers with a poly(methyl methacrylate) PMMA matrix improves selected optical and electrical properties as a result of the uniform distribution of the reinforcing phase in the matrix material. Originality/value: The influence of the content of silver nanowires, layering conditions, applied methods of dispersing silver nanowires in the matrix material on the structure and properties of newly developed nanocomposite layers was determined.

Silver nanowire filled photonic crystal fibers are proposed in this paper to achieve surface plasmon resonance sensors and overcome the complicacy and difficulty of coating the holes in the photonic crystal fiber. Optical field distributions of these fibers at different wavelengths are calculated and simulated using the finite element method (FEM), and the sensing properties are discussed in both areas of resonant wavelength and intensity detection. Numerical simulation results show that carefully designed structure of the sensor brings about an excellent effect, with both spectral and intensity sensitivity in the range of 4×10-5-5×10-5 RIU, better than in the case of similar structures coated with metal film, and the fabrication is expected to be simplified.
