Lingying Li
Lingying Li, NIMS Junior Researcher (Univ.Tsukuba and MANA), and co‐workers' research "Dual Surface Architectonics for Directed Self-Assembly of Ultrahigh-Resolution Electronics", was selected as the front cover of the journal "small".
They report an ultrahigh-resolution directed self-assembly strategy based on dual surface architectonics (DSA) for high-performance soft electronics. The DSA endows submicrometer-scale surface regions with strong adsorbing and pinning effect toward metallic nanoparticle inks via photoirradiation and chemical polarization, which enables patterning of electrodes with the resolution of 600 nm and further allows the fabrication of short-channel organic thin-film transistors.
