This report deals with on the synthesis, purification and use of silver or copper nanowires to fabricate flexible transparent electrodes.1-3 The performances of these electrodes are excellent, typically less than 20 ohm/sq at 90 % transparency. These electrodes have been integrated in various optoelectronic devices. We will show that it affords a large area, low-cost deposition method, with good performances in devices such as organic photovoltaic cells and flexible touch sensors . We will also present results dealing with the use of such electrodes to realize transparent film heaters (TFH), with very good performances.4 This solution-processable technique appears as a really promising alternative to ITO (indium tin oxide), and stability issue has now to be tackled. We will present results about the stability of these electrodes in particular with regard to environmental stresses.5 1) D. Langley, G. Giusti, C. Mayousse, C. Celle, D. Bellet, J.P.
