Background:

Nanocellulose is a sustainable material derived from plants.
Developing advanced optical materials is crucial for enhancing optoelectronic device performance.

Purpose of the Study:

To create a highly translucent and light-diffusive nanocellulose film.
To evaluate the film's optical properties and potential applications in optoelectronics.

Main Methods:

Fabrication of a nanocellulose film using a TEMPO/NaClO/NaBr system.
Characterization of the film's optical transmittance, diffuse transmission, and surface morphology.

Main Results:

The nanocellulose film achieved approximately 90% optical transmittance.
Tunable diffuse transmission up to 78% was observed across visible and near-infrared spectra.
High packing density and microstructured surface contributed to superior optical properties.

Conclusions:

The developed nanocellulose film acts as an effective translucent light diffuser.
The film shows significant potential for improving the efficiency of devices like solar cells and OLEDs.
