Title: Transparent Conductors with Silver Nanowires: Closing the gap with Transparent Conductive Oxides

Abstract: Demand for transparent conductors have been on a rise with increased adoption of touch screens and emerging applications such as OLED lighting, solar and flexible displays. These applications are looking for better performing materials than the incumbent transparent conductive oxides which have several technological drawbacks as well as supply chain risks.The consumer market segment is looking for the best possible materials at very competitive prices. We have three outstanding speakers from Cambrios who will provide a detailed background on the technology behind silver nanowires that is replacing incumbent materials and the progress that is being made in various markets and applications.

Speaker Biographies:

Dr. Paul Mansky, has a BS in Physics from MIT, a PhD in physics from Princeton, and did post-doctoral work in polymer physics at IBM’s Almaden Research Laboratory and the Polymer Science Department at UMass Amherst. He has more than 50 publications and patents in diverse technical fields, including block copolymer thin self-assembly and nanostructure fabrication; superconductivity; high throughput technologies for accelerated materials discovery; polymeric drugs; and pharmaceutical formulations. His current role at Cambrios is to help grow and strengthen the ecosystem for ClearOhm®-based touch sensors. He also manages the Applications Support and Technical Marketing at Cambrios. He has previously held roles in successful materials-focused companies in Silicon Valley, including Symyx, Alza, and Ilypsa/Relypsa.

Dr. Florian Pschenitzka holds a Dipl.-Ing. from the Technical University in Munich, Germany and a Ph.D. from Princeton University, both in Electrical Engineering. Currently at Cambrios Technologies he is focused on the application of Cambrios’ ClearOhm (R) Transparent Conductor Film for applications in OLED and OPV. Before joining Cambrios, he worked as a device scientist at OSRAM Semiconductors on OLED devices.

Sri Peruvemba leads the marketing function at Cambrios. His experience in the electronics industry include marketing LCD, CRT, TFEL, OLED, LED, Plasma and ePaper displays into the mobile, industrial, medical, signage and TV markets. He earned a BSEE, a MBA and a Post Graduate Diploma in Management. Previously, Peruvemba held senior level positions at E Ink, Sharp Corp, TFS Inc, Planar Systems and Suntronic Technology.
