Summary: A novel and green ionic liquid-assisted ink is developed for the fabrication of highly efficient CIGSSe solar cells by inkjet printing. Compared to the conventional vacuum-based deposition and spin-coating solution methods, inkjet printing technology can remarkably improve the material utilization of copper indium gallium sulfur selenium (CIGS) and achieve a flat and continuous deposition of CIGS thin film. The inkjet-printed CIGSSe solar cells show an encouraging power conversion efficiency of 15.22%.

Summary: This work demonstrates the use of EHD inkjet printing to pattern luminescent nanomaterials on photonic structures. Nanoscale CsPbBr3 NC features were successfully deposited on the structures, maintaining structural integrity throughout the printing process. The deposited NCs demonstrated sub-micrometer control and cavity-emitter coupling in silicon nitride nanophotonic cavities.

Summary: This study demonstrated the synthesis of a thin film composite membrane using inkjet printing to deposit single-walled carbon nanotubes, resulting in a membrane with high water flux and salt rejection rates. The controlled deposition of SWCNT provided a highly porous interlayer that led to the formation of a defect-free ultrathin selective layer, showing significant improvement in NF membrane performance.

Summary: Interest in transparent electrodes for biomedical engineering applications has been growing. However, conventional fabrication methods have limitations in design customization and large-area applicability. This paper introduces a novel method using inkjet printing technology to fabricate customizable, transparent, ultrathin gold microelectrodes. The method involves inkjet printing a polymer nucleation-inducing seed layer and mask-less vacuum deposition of ultrathin gold to produce high-transparency electrodes. This allows for efficient design customization over a large area.

Summary: We present a study on robust, transparent, and flexible thin-film transistors made of single-walled carbon nanotubes using an all-inkjet printing method. Our findings reveal that these thin-film transistors exhibit different photoresponses based on the power levels of incident light, distinguishing them from previous reports that classified them as photodetectors. Furthermore, these transistors show stability under daily illumination conditions, making them suitable for light-insensitive transparent and flexible electronic applications.
