A composite conductive film is provided that includes a layer of cross-linked polymer having a surface and an inorganic mesh comprising a plurality of nanowires of an inorganic material. The nanowires are, in isolated form, characterized by a first conductivity stability temperature. Further, the plurality of nanowires is embedded within at least a region of the layer of cross-linked polymer, where the region is continuous from the surface of the layer of cross-linked polymer. The layer of cross-linked polymer and the inorganic mesh are arranged to form the composite conductive film having a second conductivity stability temperature that is greater than the first conductivity stability temperature. |
