Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The authors demonstrate the fabrication of multiscale electrodes (with lateral dimensions ranging from 10 μm to a few hundred of nanometers) on organic donor-acceptor photovoltaic thin films by mean of nanostencil lithography. The experimental setup allows the realization and in situ investigation of structures by combining nanostencil and atomic force microscopy (AFM) capabilities based on the use of tuning forks. Qplus AFM sensors with tungsten etched tips were used for near field imaging, and as microprobes to contact the deposited electrodes. The photovoltaic behavior was characterized by mean of current-voltage measurements in dark and under selective illumination. The influence of the electrode geometry on the electrical parameters is analyzed and the effect of in situ annealing is discussed in view of frequency modulation AFM images of the active layer surface morphology. This illustrates the powerfulness of nanostencil combined with Qplus AFM for local investigations of organic photovoltaic materials and in situ fabrication of devices. © 2013 American Vacuum Society.
