In article number 1800077 , Seungyong Han, Seung Hwan Ko, and co‐workers report a novel copper‐nanowire synthesis method development to control both the nanowire morphology and the synthesis yield, together with their application as a highly flexible and transparent conductor for a capacitive‐type touch sensor. The copper‐nanowire transparent conductor shows an enhanced oxidation resistance by coating it with a UV‐curable polyurethane acrylate resin and is expected to be very useful in various flexible/wearable device applications.
