A free-standing, flexible, transparent, and fluorescent superhydrophobic composite film is fabricated by drop-casting a layer of organic self-assembled flowerlike micro/super-nanostructures on top of a hydrophobic polyimide film. The solution process to grow the organic super-nanostructures, fabricate the composite film, and lift-off the film from the mother substrate, ensures the process simplicity, low-cost, and scalability. The water contact angle (CA) of the superhydrophobic composite films reaches as high as 159.

Article Synopsis
  • The development of printed electronics for ultrathin flat panel displays is gaining attention due to its potential to lower production costs and the complexities involved in device physics.
  • Researchers have created all-solution processed polymer light-emitting diode displays using a unique cathode made from ink-jetted conducting nanoparticles, allowing for high-resolution patterns without damaging organic layers.
  • A multifunctional buffer layer enhances electron injection and compatibility while enabling the production of 1.5-inch displays without dead pixels or lines, setting the stage for more efficient roll-to-roll manufacturing.
