Reed membranes are utilized by J. Wu and L. Y. Lin to fabricate flexible UV photodetectors with ZnO nanocrystals embedded. On page 1530, the short‐circuit problem, often seen when using nonuniform material deposition methods commonly employed in flexible devices, can be easily avoided with the membrane as the interspacing layer, thus facilitating the fabrication process. The device can achieve over 3% EQE at 350 nm wavelength, and over 1% in general near‐UV range.
