Measurement of liquid properties by the observation of micro droplet emitted by inkjet

Yamada T., Sakai K., Institute of Industrial Science, the University of Tokyo, JP

The application of inkjet printing to industrial processes such as microfabrication, bioengineering is attracting great attention these days. These processes involve large shear deformation of micro-scale and complex liquid, therefore, the importance to measure properties [...]

Low-temperature laser sintering of the printed nano-silver electrodes for flexible electronics

Gu W., Lin J., Cui Z., Suzhou Institute of Nanotech, Chinese Academy of Sciences, CN

One of the key components in flexible electronics is the flexible electrode. Currently, the most commonly used printable electrode material is nano-silver ink which contains various additives.These additives, however, increase the electrical resistivity of nano-silver [...]

Additive Manufacturing (AM) of Quantum Dot Nano-Inks

Ivanova O.S., Elliott A., Campbell T.A., Williams C.B., Virginia Tech, US

Additive Manufacturing (AM) pertains to technologies that fabricate 3D artifacts through the successive addition of 2D cross-sectional layers. Due to this layer-by-layer fabrication process, AM allows a designer to create geometrically complex artifacts with designed [...]

Moon S.J., Moon Y.J., Kang H.S., Kang K.T., Kang H.S., Kang K.T., Lee S-H., Moon S.J., Moon Y.J., Hwang J.Y., Korea Institute of Industrial Technology(KITECH), KR

Printing technologies have emerged as a promising technique to realize low-cost integrated circuits. Among several printing techniques, drop-on-demand inkjet printing is an attractive tool for low-cost electronics fabrication. Inkjet printing can generate patterns of metal, [...]

Multi-functional silica microdot arrays by inkjet printing for biosensor applications

De Los Cobos O., Lejeune M., Rossignol F., Carrion C., Boissière C., Ribot F., Sanchez C., Cattoën X., Wong Chi Man M., Durand J.-O., SPCTS, FR

Silica-based microarrays for molecular recognition are realized using a piezoelectric drop-on-demand inkjet printer. A sol containing tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and (3-azidopropyl)triethoxysilane is used as ink to print azido-functionalized mesoporous silica microdots arrays clickable with various [...]

The effect of Rheological Property of Ink on the Generation of Inkjet Droplet

Yoo H., Kim C., Korea university, KR

In inkjet printing the ink is usually a suspension of particles in liquid. Suspensions usually have shear-thinning viscosities. Also they have large zero shear viscosities. To understand the jetting and drop generation mechanism we investigated [...]
