The new
coating that the team has created consists of a network of linked copper
nanowires that can be deposited directly on rigid glass or flexible polymer sheets through a process that is scalable for mass production.

coating was just an experiment, an afterthought, but when they tested it they found that the device was able to go through 200,000 cycles without any loss of capacity or any damage to the
nanowire.
