Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure pertain to methods of making electrically conductive materials by applying nanowires and graphene nanoribbons onto a surface to form a network layer with interconnected graphene nanoribbons and nanowires. In some embodiments, the methods include the following steps: (a) applying graphene nanoribbons onto a surface to form a graphene nanoribbon layer; (b) applying nanowires and graphene nanoribbons onto the graphene nanoribbon layer to form the network layer; and (c) optionally applying graphene nanoribbons onto the formed network layer to form a second graphene nanoribbon layer on the network layer. Additional embodiments of the present disclosure pertain to the formed electrically conductive materials and their use as components of electronic devices, such as energy storage devices. Further embodiments of the present disclosure pertain to electronic devices that contain the electrically conductive materials of the present disclosure.
