[Figure 1] Flow behavior of the coating solution with and without the additive during the coating process

Caption

The additive introduced into the solution for preparing the photoactive layer enhances Marangoni flow, thereby offsetting capillary flow caused by changes in the substrate’s surface energy due to relative humidity, and suppressing the net flow variations induced by humidity.
