Abstract
According to an example embodiment, a conductive paste includes a conductive powder, a metallic glass having a supercooled liquid region, and an organic vehicle. The metallic glass may include an alloy having a disordered atomic structure that includes at least two metals. An electronic device and/or solar cell may include an electrode formed using the conductive paste. An electrode formed using a conductive paste according to example embodiments may have lower contact resistance than an electrode formed using a conductive paste that includes glass frits instead of a metallic glass.
