Low-cost screen printed and embossed LAMP micro-reactors

Gosselin D., Gougis M., Baque M., Maffini-Alvaro V., Mailley P., Bourdat A.G., Vignoud S., Navarro F., Belgacem M.N., Chaussy D., Berthier J., CEA-Grenoble, FR

Introduction: Diagnostic is probably the most important step in the fight against infectious diseases and epidemics. While it is necessary to give a treatment to diseased people, it is just as important to give the [...]

Study of low Rayleigh heaters for biomedical diagnostic tools

Gosselin D., Berthier J., Delon A., Chaussy D., Belgacem N., Delapierre G., CEA, FR

Microfluidic is a very promising technology to improve biomedical devices and to provide diagnostic tools for the developing world. The World Health Organization has introduced a list of requirements that an ideal diagnostic tool for [...]

Effect of β-Silicon Carbide Size and Shape on the Properties and Microstructure of PMMA Matrix Nanocomposites

Watt M.R., Gerhardt Ro.A., Georgia Institute of Technology, US

The objective of this research is to fabricate, beginning with screen printing, electrically conductive glass nanocomposite films and optimize their properties. By discovering an optimum thickness and nanoparticle spacing within the glass matrix, we may [...]

Electrowetting on screen printed paper based substrate

Yafia M., Najjaran H., University of British Columbia, CA

In this work, electrowetting on dielectric (EWOD) is performed on a paper based substrate. Electrode patterns are fabricated on a paper substrate using screen printing. Conventional photolithography fabrication techniques are replaced by screen printing conductive [...]

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 [...]
