Carbon nanotube (CNT)‐ and graphene (G)‐based transparent conductive films (TCFs) are two promising alternatives for commonly‐used indium tin oxide‐based TCFs future flexible optoelectronic devices. This review comprehensively summarizes recent progress in the fabrication, properties, modification, patterning, integration of CNT‐ G‐TCFs into Their potential applications challenges devices, such as organic photovoltaic cells, light emitting diodes touch panels, discussed detail. More importantly, their key characteristics advantages use these devices compared. Despite many challenges, have demonstrated great various already been used some products like panels smartphones. illustrates significant opportunities industrial CNTs graphene, hence pushes nanoscience nanotechnology one step towards practical applications.
