yields higher-quality organic transistors that can be used in flexible, lightweight electronic devices. Other methods such as heating or including additives in the film also improve


superconductivity, but vibration might be cheaper and more scalable, the researchers think. This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access
