Structural, electrical and optical characterization showed that rGO-P3HT films 9.0 wt% P3HT exhibited good stability when exposed to the ambient atmosphere. These composite films of 200 nm thickness possess a sheet resistance and transparency of R¡õ?~ 17?Ω and T ~ 72%, respectively. Owing to containing conducting polymer, rGO-P3HT-coated glass could be efficiently used in photovoltaic applications, in organic solar cells in particular, with the replacement of the indium tin oxide (ITO) and fluorine tin oxide (FTO) electrodes. %K Composite rGO-P3HT Thin Films %K Transparent Conducting Electrode %K Sheet Resistance Transmittance %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=84696
