This Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Phase I project aims to fabricate anti-reflective coatings (ARC) for solar energy applications. The approach is to use a convective and evaporation-induced assembly to deposit organized nanostructures and create sub-wavelength quasi repeating structures at lower cost than the repeating structures from photolithography. In this project, a Microreactor-Assisted Nanomaterial Deposition (MAND) system will be developed for solution-phase synthesis and large-scale manufacturing. The broader/commercial impact of this project will be the potential to demonstrate a microreactor technology that can produce various films with defined structures and low cost. One of the major applications could be anti-reflective coating in solar systems to reduce light reflection and improve energy harvesting.

这个小型企业技术转移(STTR)第一阶段项目旨在制造用于太阳能应用的抗反射涂层(ARC)。该方法是使用对流和蒸发诱导的组装来沉积有序的纳米结构，并以比光刻的重复结构更低的成本创建亚波长准重复结构。在这个项目中，将开发一种用于溶液相合成和大规模制造的微反应器辅助纳米材料沉积(Mand)系统。该项目的更广泛的商业影响将是展示一种微反应器技术的潜力，该技术可以生产具有特定结构和低成本的各种薄膜。其中一个主要应用可能是太阳能系统中的抗反射涂层，以减少光反射并改善能量收集。
