All-polymer solar cells (APSCs) possess excellent material flexibility, solution processability, and thermal stability, offering great potential for lightweight and large-area printed applications in wearable and stretchable devices. A critical factor in achieving high performance is the optimization of active layer morphology, especially the regulation of crystallization and phase separation of the donor. However, the real-time morphological evolution during post-treatment processes such as solvent vapor annealing (SVA) has remained unclear.

​Prof. Alessandro Sepe, Head of the Scientific Computing Program at the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF), Shanghai Advanced Research Institute (SARI), Chinese Academy of Sciences was awarded the Chinese Government Friendship Award at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on September. 30th 2024.

China has upgraded the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF), a key sci-tech infrastructure to reveal the mysteries of the microscopic world. The construction of upgrades on the SSRF passed the national inspection and acceptance in east China's Shanghai on Wednesday.
