This review focuses on the recent progress in replacing conventional organic-based flexible devices with high-performance inorganic thin-film devices fabricated via high-temperature deposition. As most flexible substrates cannot withstand the high temperatures required for the direct deposition of epitaxial or highly crystallized films, alternative strategies, such as the use of chemically etchable sacrificial layers or physically separable two-dimensional materials, have been developed to enable high-quality thin-film transfer onto flexible substrates. In this review, we systematically summarize the types of sacrificial and two-dimensional layers applied in transfer methods that have been explored to date, including both chemical and physical approaches. This review also highlights the functional properties of the transferred inorganic thin films, including their stability, ferromagnetism, ferroelectricity, multiferroicity, and optical and electrical characteristics, and discusses their potential for novel device applications. Finally, we address the current limitations of sacrificial and two-dimensional layer selection and transfer methodologies, and provide perspectives on future research directions to guide the development of high performance next-generation flexible electronics.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":386,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science and Engineering: R: Reports","volume":"169 ","pages":"Article 101186"},"PeriodicalIF":31.6,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146073677","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

State-of-the-art devices contain a 700–100,000 nm<sup>2</sup> insulating thin film exposed to electrical fields, and understanding its progressive degradation and breakdown is essential to build reliable devices. Investigations in this direction must fabricate test structures and/or devices of similar sizes, otherwise the conclusions extracted are not applicable. Many research groups use electron beam lithography, but this technique introduces polymer residues and leads to low fabrication yields due to the complex lift-off process. Some groups use conductive Atomic Force Microscopy (CAFM), which employs an ultra-sharp conductive tip to analyse the properties of a material at small areas ranging from 1 to 600 nm<sup>2</sup>. However, the currents registered by CAFM strongly depend on three parameters that are difficult to control: the radius of the probe tips, the spring constant of the cantilever, and the relative humidity of the environment. Therefore, a major problem of CAFM is reproducibility. Moreover, the minimum current densities that standard CAFM can detect range from 0.16 to 100 A/cm<sup>2</sup>, but that is insufficient to study gate dielectrics for low power applications (that requires analysing values below 0.01 A/cm<sup>2</sup>). Here we present nanodot CAFM, a measuring protocol that consists of placing the probe tip of a CAFM on metallic nanodots patterned on the surface of the material under test. These structures cover areas between 700 and 10,000 nm<sup>2</sup>, and they can be easily deposited on any arbitrary sample using a standard evaporator and a cheap aluminium anodic oxide template as shadow mask. Our experiments demonstrate that this setup is insensitive to relative humidity changes from 55 % to 4 %, deflection setpoint changes from −0.5 to 1 V, spring constant changes from 0.8 to 18 N/m, and tip radius changes from 2 to 200 nm, leading to a very high reproducibility. Moreover, this setup allows analysing current densities below 10<sup>−2</sup> A/cm<sup>2</sup>, which extends its range of use.

The newly designed electrolyte not only has non-flammable features but also enables LMBs to achieve stable cycling performance across a wide temperature range and superior rate capabilities up to 5.0 C at high voltage beyond 4.3 V (vs. Li/Li<sup>+</sup>) when using a LiNi<sub>0.6</sub>Co<sub>0.2</sub>Mn<sub>0.2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> (NCM622) cathode. Moreover, the constructed 50 μm@Li||NCM622 full-cell retains 81.76 % of its capacity beyond 180 cycles at the low temperature of −20°C. The unique role of intermolecular interactions is identified between the solvent molecules, which are capable of tuning the electrolyte solvation structure, in turn significantly improving the compatibility with the lithium metal anode, accelerating the Li<sup>+</sup> desolvation kinetics, and enhancing the antioxidation capability of the electrolyte. This work provides crucial insights into designing electrolytes to address the critical challenges of LMBs’ extreme operations.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":386,"journal":{"name":"Materials Science and Engineering: R: Reports","volume":"169 ","pages":"Article 101177"},"PeriodicalIF":31.6,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145898092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
