The SiNW array exhibited good optical transparency in the visible spectral range with a transmittance of -90% for a NW density of -20-25 per 10 μm. In addition, polarization-dependent measurements revealed a variation in transmittance in the range of 80%-95% depending on the angle between the polarization of incident light and the NW axis. Using the SiNWs, we demonstrated that transparent transistors exhibit good optical transparency （greater than 80%） and showed typical p-type SiNW transistor characteristics.展开更多
