Methods, materials, apparatus and systems are described for implementing high-performance arsenic (As)-doped indium oxide (In2O3) nanowires for transparent electronics, including their implementation in transparent thin-film transistors (TTFTs) and transparent active-matrix organic light-emitting diodes (AMOLED) displays. In one implementation, a method of fabricating n-type dopant-doped metal oxide nanowires includes dispersing nanoparticle catalysts on a Si/SiO2 substrate. n-type dopant-doped metal oxide nanowires are grown on the Si/SiO2 substrate using a laser ablation process. The laser ablation process can include: placing n-type dopant at an upper stream of a furnace; placing the Si/SiO2 substrate at a down stream end of the furnace; heating the furnace; adding hydrogen to a carrier gas comprising argon and oxygen; flowing the hydrogen added carrier gas over the Si/SiO2 substrate to suppress oxidation processes and incorporate the n-type dopant into the metal oxide nanowires; and cooling the n-type dopant-doped metal oxide nanowires grown on the Si/SiO2 substrate.

Methods and devices for transparent electronics are disclosed. According to an embodiment, transparent electronics are provided based on transfer printed carbon nanotubes that can be disposed on both rigid and flexible substrates. Methods are provided to enable highly aligned single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) to be used in transparent electronics for achieving high carrier mobility while using low-temperature processing.
