“…Because of the roughness and discontinuity/voids, all the interfaces with these electrodes impact the device performance and need smoothening/passivation strategies to reduce shunt losses To this end, surface modification of graphene has indeed shown promising results. [234] Xu et al [235] modified the graphene surface using ethylene glycol (EG) to endow active sites for the subsequent atomic layer deposition (ALD) of ZnO ETL. Thus, they improved the performance of a perovskite solar cell by 134% compared to the bare graphene electrode.…”

Semitransparent photovoltaic (STPV) solar cells offer an immense opportunity to expand the scope of photovoltaics to special applications such as windows, facades, skylights, and so on. These new opportunities have encouraged researchers to develop STPVs using traditional thin‐film solar cell technologies (amorphous‐Si, CdTe, and CIGS or emerging solar cells (organic, perovskites, and dye‐sensitized). There are considerable improvements in both power conversion efficiency (PCE) and semitransparency of these STPV devices. This review studies the device structure of state‐of‐the‐art STPV devices and thereby analyzes the different approaches toward maximizing the product of PCE and average visible transmittance. The origins of PCE losses during the opaque‐to‐semitransparent transition in the different STPV technologies are discussed. In addition, critical practical aspects relevant to all STPV devices, such as compatibility of the top transparent electrode with the device structure, buffer layer optimization, light management engineering, scale‐up, and stability, are also reported. This overview is expected to facilitate researchers across different technologies to identify and overcome the challenges toward achieving higher light utilization efficiencies in STPVs.

Transparent electrodes, notable for their optical transparency and electrical conductivity, are revolutionizing sensors by enabling the simultaneous detection of diverse physical, chemical, and biological signals. Materials like graphene, carbon nanotubes, and conductive polymers, which offer a balance between optical transparency, electrical conductivity, and mechanical flexibility, are at the forefront of this development. These electrodes are integral in various applications, from healthcare to solar cell technologies, enhancing sensor performance in complex environments. The paper addresses challenges in applying these electrodes, such as the need for mechanical flexibility, high optoelectronic performance, and biocompatibility. It explores new materials and innovative techniques to overcome these hurdles, aiming to broaden the capabilities of multimodal sensing devices. The review provides a comparative analysis of different transparent electrode materials, discussing their applications and the ongoing development of novel electrode systems for multimodal sensing. This exploration offers insights into future advancements in transparent electrodes, highlighting their transformative potential in bioelectronics and multimodal sensing technologies.

Flexible, wearable electronics are the future of electronics. Although organic photovoltaic devices have the advantages of high efficiency, low cost, and flexibility, they face the problem of failure due to the effects of water vapor in the environment. Therefore, the development of encapsulation films with outstanding mechanical and encapsulation properties is the key to realizing wearable devices. This review provides an overview of the development of thin‐film encapsulation (TFE), the application of TFE in the field of optoelectronics, recent advances in the field of flexible encapsulation with TFE using atomic layer deposition technology, and an outlook on future trends in the field of flexible encapsulation with TFE using atomic layer deposition technology.
