Thermoelectric temperature sensors by printing with a simple office inkjet printer

Chae H., Jung M., Soum V., Lee J., Kim H., Kim T., Cheong H., Kim H., Kim T., Jeon S., Kwon O-S, Shin K., Sogang University, KR

Recently, printing temperature sensors have been significantly demanded in the paper electronics, such as electronic skin for robots, polymer chain reaction for DNA amplification. Here we present printing thermoelectric temperature sensors by using a simple [...]

The Effect of Lamination on Printed Silver Tracks for Plastic Circuits

Neeli M.R., Thiel D.V., Griffith University, AU

To combat the global e-waste crisis, there is an urgent need to develop a technology where environmental pollution from electronics, their manufacturing and product end of life is minimized through recycling and re-use. Circuits in [...]

Rheological Optimization and Stability Study of Silver Nano-Ink for InkJet Printing of Solar Electrodes Using Industrial Printhead

Shankar R., Amert A., Kellar J.J., Whites K.W., South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, US

we have produced silver nanoparticles using the polyol synthesis and have tailored the ink formulation by choosing a solvent mixture to meet the rheological requirement of industrial printhead (XAAR 1001FF). A solvent mixture which can [...]

Photonic Sintering of Silver for Roll-to Roll-Printed Electronics

Ahmed S., Xenon Corporation, US

The use of high energy Pulsed Light is presented as a means of sintering printed nano- particle inks to form conductive traces on flexible substrates. These novel metal nanoparticle based inks are ideally suited for [...]

A Dual-Frequency Wearable MWCNT Ink-Based Spiral Microstrip Antenna

Elwi T.A., University of Arkansas at Little Rock, US

In this paper, we present a dual-frequency, square spiral microstrip patch antenna constructed from Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT) ink deposited on a thin flexible FR4 substrate using a cold printing process. The proposed antenna operates [...]
