Short summary
Surface morphology is critical for enhanced performance in thin films. However, there is limited understanding regarding the accurate control of thin-film morphology. This work provides a systematic way of optimizing different parameters to achieve the desired surface morphologies. Key parameters for controlling thin-film morphology have been identified. Using these parameters, a systematic design schedule for electrosprayed thin films with different surface morphologies has been developed.
