Article Abstract
For the first time, the photovoltaic modules composed of small molecule were successfully fabricated by using roll-to-roll compatible printing techniques. In this study, blend films of small molecules, BTR and PCBM were slot-die coated using a halogen-free solvent system. As a result, high efficiencies of 7.46% and 6.56% were achieved from time-consuming solvent vapor annealing (SVA) treatment and roll-to-roll compatible solvent additive approaches, respectively. After successful verification of our roll-to-roll compatible method on small-area devices, we further fabricated large-area photovoltaic modules with a total active area of 10 cm, achieving a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 4.83%. This demonstration of large-area photovoltaic modules through roll-to-roll compatible printing methods, even based on a halogen-free solvent, suggests the great potential for the industrial-scale production of organic solar cells (OSCs).

The functionalization of thin, flexible glass with piezoelectric oxides is a pathway toward transparent electromechanical devices. The crystallization of lead zirconate titanate thin films on thick, rigid glass is previously demonstrated using flash lamp annealing to selectively anneal the films, without damaging the substrates. In this work, a 2-step process suitable for Schott AF 32 eco glass and Corning Willow glass is developed, both 100 μm thick, the latter of which is compatible with roll-to-roll processes.

Currently, flexible perovskite solar cells (FPSCs) have achieved power conversion efficiencies exceeding 26% at the laboratory scale. Recently, roll-to-roll (R2R) fabrication has emerged as a highly promising solution for the low-cost, large-scale production of FPSCs. However, transitioning from laboratory research to industrial production remains an urgent and critical challenge.

The utilization of biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) in commercial film capacitors has gained increasing prominence in recent years, primarily due to its advanced ultra-low dielectric loss and cost-effectiveness. In order to mitigate the degradation of the capacitive performance of BOPP films induced by the metal-electrode charge injection under extreme operational conditions, this study introduces a simple, efficient, and environmentally benign modification method for growing CoFeO nanolayers onto the surface of BOPP films magnetron sputtering. The wide bandgap CoFeO nanolayers can increase the potential barrier height between the metal electrode and dielectric films of the composite dielectrics.

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies have achieved remarkable success in both biological research and clinical applications. However, in recent years, performance improvements have slowed due to fundamental limitations imposed by Poiseuille fluid dynamics in flow cells, which we overcome using Couette flow. Here we show NGS by roll-to-roll fluidics (r2r-fl), a cost-effective approach compatible with flexible biochip sizes.
