One of their important features is the flexibility that allows conformal contact with various subjects and tolerance to mechanical deformation. However, realizing both high TE conversion efficiency and excellent flexibility remains a significant challenge. Here, a general method was developed to produce stretchable high-performance TE composites and achieved asymmetric composite thermoelectric materials (ACTE) with high Seebeck coefficient (215 μV·K<sup>−1</sup> for n-type, 175 μV·K<sup>−1</sup> for p-type). The fully stretchable temperature sensors (FSTS) fabricated from ACTE exhibited good flexibility which could withstand 50 % uniaxial tensile strain and 30 % biaxial strain with low thicknesses (∼650 μm) that allowed for good contact on curved surfaces. The sensitivity of FSTS reached ∼145 μV·K<sup>−1</sup> with 18 n/p ACTE pairs and ∼37 μV·K<sup>−1</sup> with 2 pairs and could output stable signals regardless of flexural or tensile deformation. The FSTS was also fabricated into an array that could be worn as sensors or electronic skin with temperature sensing and mapping abilities.

To date, no existing strategy has successfully addressed the incompatibility between QDs and DUV to achieve submicron-scale patterning while preserving optoelectronic properties. Here, we develop a photo-shield photolithography strategy implemented through rationally designed acetophenone-based crosslinkers, which enables efficient DUV shield to QDs and precise photo-crosslinking. Based on this strategy, a record-breaking spatial resolution (>18000 PPI, pixel size ≈ 0.55 μm) is demonstrated with fully maintained QD structure and photoluminescent properties. The fabricated light-emitting diode prototype achieves a record peak external quantum efficiency of ∼ 20.3 %.
