為了達到理想上以roll-to-roll的方式製做有機太陽能電池電池，不同材料的軟性基板上陸續被研究及開發，本實驗使用鋁箔做為太陽電池的可撓式金屬基板，並加工處理使其具絕緣化且平坦化特性，最後以此為基板成功製作有機太陽能電池元件。
本研究使用水氧化法成長氧化層並塗布polymer以達到絕緣特性，其中嘗試不同長氧化層的時間，以及polymer的材料、厚度及濃度，試圖找出最節省成本且最能達到理想阻值的結構及參數；之後並以過濾polymer或以表面水合的方式做降低鋁箔基板的表面平坦度的測試，最後以Al foil / Oxide(2hr) / 8%PVA (1000rpm、60s)作為製作元件的金屬基板。
在製作有機太陽能元件的研究中，首先測試元件的結構的可行性，而後將元件移植到鋁箔基板上，並經由將溶液塗布的PEDOT層取代以蒸鍍方式製做的MoO3層，以改善欲蒸鍍上電極時元件的表面平坦度，以及改變主動層厚度增加內建電場提升Jsc，使得元件製作上的穩定性及效率增加，目前效率可達到1.26%。這也證實了我們成功的證實地以處理加工過的鋁箔為基板製作出有機太陽能電池。
