Aerosol-jet printing of nanowire networks of zinc octaethylporphyrin and its application in flexible photodetectors.

Nanowire networks of zinc octaethylporphyrin (ZnOEP) were printed using an aerosol-jet printer on a poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) flexible substrate. The prototype photodetector based on the as-printed network exhibited high photosensitivity, fast photoresponse, and excellent mechanical stability.
