Functional Materials for Printed Sensor Structures

a suitable solution to generate these functional structures of very different materials for various new applications. INKtelligent printing ® combines the structuring possibilities of maskless printing technologies with the functionality of micro- and nano-scaled functional materials to generate functional structures like conductors, resistors and even sensors or sensor arrays, respectively. The functional structures are printed onto different flat or non-planar substrates like wafers, glass substrates, polymer foils or non-planar components. Typically, the structures have to be consolidated after printing, i.e. in a furnace, by use of laser treatment or high energy irradiation.
