Key Points

The aim is to identify optimal processing conditions for polymer thin films to enhance their performance.
Implemented a modular self-driving lab (SDL) for automated experiments.
Optimized deposition conditions through systematic testing.
Analyzed the iridescent properties of thin films produced.
Achieved significantly improved iridescence in thin films under optimized conditions.
Demonstrated reproducibility of optimal processing parameters through SDL.

Implication

Demonstrates optimization of polymer thin film performance using a self-driving lab, suggesting advanced processing techniques.

Abstract

Identifying processing conditions that yield optimal performance in polymer thin films remains challenging. Here we demonstrate a modular self-driving lab (SDL) for optimizing deposition conditions that produce strongly iridescent thin...
