Abstract:

ABSTRACTActive inkjet materials are invoked in the fabrication of optoelectronic devices. These types of multilayer assemblies contain a variety of commercially available ink formulations. It is envisioned that a dielectric SU-8 material can be used in a FET-like structure to form an interlayer between conductive silver and semi-conductive MWCNT-doped PEDOT:PSS ink layers. These printed structures may be fabricated onto a polyimide based flexible substrate, for instance. These structures are a starting point for offering valuable information on layer-on-layer printing interactions and interfac

Abstract:

For foldable electronic devices of the future, most components should have very good flexibility and reliability to maintain electrical properties even under repeated deformation. In this study, two types of inks for conducting polymer and graphene were simultaneously printed on flexible plastic substrates via the newly developed consecutive ink writing (CIW) process for the formation of composite electrodes of foldable electronic devices. To consecutively print conducting polymer ink and graphene ink, a conventional three-dimensional (3D) printer was modified by installing two needles in the

3D printing of soft EMG sensing structures enables the creation of personalized sensing structures that can be potentially integrated in prosthetic, assistive and other devices. We developed and characterized flexible carbon-black doped TPU-based sEMG sensing structures.

Abstract:

The development of zeolitic adsorbents is an essential subject of interest in the realm of green chemistry, especially in the aspect of gas adsorption. The intrinsic molecular sieving capacity of zeolites allows them to be widely adopted as effective gas adsorbents. As a layer-by-layer deposition technology, three-dimensional (3D) printing can achieve more complex zeolitic gas adsorbent structures than conventional manufacturing methods by offering flexible freeform construction and controllable 3D structural design. This review article focuses on the recent development of 3D-printed zeolitic

Abstract:

Inkjet printing of conductive silver lines on solid or flexible substrates for the fabrication of electronic components has been reported in a variety of ways over more than the last decade. Numerous publications highlight the importance of the silver source for the feasibility of the process as well as the resulting properties of the printed structures. In previous work [1] we reported the first experimental attempt to realize such conductive silver components inside a structure printed with a custom three dimensional powder printer. Aim of this study was to combine the functionality of direc

In this contribution various technologies, sensing principles and applications are discussed. We will give both an overview of some of the sensors presented in literature as well as some of our own recent work on 3-D printed sensors. The 3-D printing methods discussed include fused deposition modelling (FDM), using multi-material printing and poly-jetting.

Abstract:

This study aimed to examine the effect of the orientation angle of center facing arms on the elongation and strength of 3D-printed textiles with two different re-entrant cellular auxetic structures. An experimental research design, consisting of 6 (auxetic-structure textiles) × 3 (repetition), was employed. Star-shaped re-entrant auxetic structures (star re-entrant) with orientation angles of 25°, 30°, and 35° and floral-based star-shaped re-entrant auxetic structures (floral re-entrant) with orientation angles of 55°, 60°, and 65° were developed using the fused deposition modeling 3D-printing

Thermistor inks with different weight ratios of SiC nanoparticles were printed atop the IDE structures to form fully printed thermistors. The thermistors were tested over a wide temperature range form 25 °C to 170 °C, exhibiting excellent repeatability and stability over 15 h of continuous operation. Optim

A new freestanding sensor-based 3ω technique is presented here, which remarkably expands the application of traditional 3ω technology to anisotropic materials. The freestanding flexible sensor was fabricated using the mature flexible printed circuit production technique, which is non-destructive to the samples and applicable to porous surfaces. The thermal conductivities of potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) crystal along the (100), (010) and (001) crystallographic planes were measured based on this new sensor at room temperature.
