Briefing
|
- Electronic printing – Invents stamping process that can print nanoelectronic ink onto any surface including flexible and rigid substrates
- Low cost electronics – Can be used to print electronics such as transistors, optically functional surfaces, and ubiquitous sensors at low cost
- Fast and more precise – Can print at 200 millimeters per second, same as industrial printing technologies, with a tenfold improvement in printing resolution
- Applications – Include sensor-laden panels, labels, stickers, windows that track weather, and food packaging detects temperature and spoiling produce
- Next steps – Integrate 2D materials such as graphene to enable new ultrathin and energy-converting devices
