XTPL Approach to Print Submicron Conductive Lines on Dielectric Substrates

Kowalczewski P., Wiatrowska A., Dusza M., Zięba M., Cichoń P., Fijak K., Granek F., XTPL SA, PL

The concepts of printed electronics offer a tremendous potential when brought to nanotechnology. We present a novel technology for printing submicron conductive lines at unprecedented flexibility, accuracy, and low cost. The lines with resistivity down [...]

Optical characterizations of multi-shape nanoparticles in polymer thin film layers

Carlberg M., Pourcin F., Margeat O., Le Rouzo J., Berginc G., Sauvage R.-M., Ackermann J., Escoubas L., Aix Marseille University, FR

Metallic nanoparticles are currently a hot topic thanks to their tuneable optical properties. Indeed, their light absorption or scattering is material, size and shape, but also environment dependent. We aim to take advantage of these [...]

Synthesis and Characterization of Metallic Nanoparticles of Cu, Co and Cu-Co by Reactive Milling

Angeles-Islas J., Velasquez-Rodriguez C.G., Calderon H.A., ESFM-IPN, MX

The production of metallic nanoparticles by means of a mechanochemical process is reported. High energy mills are used. The reaction between powders and activated by ball milling involves metallic chlorides and Na in a protective [...]
