Flexible nanograss with highest combination of transparency and haze for optoelectronic plastic substrates.

Transparent polymer substrates have recently received increased attention for various flexible optoelectronic devices. Optoelectronic applications such as solar cells and light emitting-diodes would benefit from substrates with both high transparency and high haze, which increase how much light scatters into or out of the underlying photoactive layers. In this letter, we demonstrate a new flexible nanograss plastic substrate that displays the highest combination of transparency and haze in the literature for polyethylene terephthalate (PET).
