Recent advances in printable materials and thin film electronic devices and circuits
Printed and flexible electronics enable interesting novel applications in the fields of sensors [1], bioelectronics [2], and security applications [3], to name but a few. Most of them gain their functionality from a layered structure composed of different materials that interact with each other. For semiconducting layers, organic and inorganic materials can be used; in this regard, the respective functional materials need to be formulated into inks that are then printed on various substrates. The structuring process of printing is a complex process in which many chemical and physical process parameters need to be controlled at the same time, such as drop volume, the waveform of the electrical signal controlling droplet formation, or the drying time. Also, the surface of the substrate plays a decisive role in printing accuracy and layer morphology. After printing, post-treatments are often necessary to obtain the desired features, since the properties of bulk materials often differ from printed nanoparticulate or precursor-derived layers.
This presentation starts by introducing various semiconducting inks based on either nanoparticle or precursor solutions and discusses thin film properties, microstructure, and finally the step-by-step device fabrication processes. Various printing techniques such as (super)-inkjet, laser printing and microplotting will be shown. These printed materials display advantages such as high carrier mobilities, transparency, stability in air, and non-toxicity, and can be prepared mostly by using water or alcohol-based solvents. Finally, examples of hybrid sensor systems comprising printed and standard CMOS components will be elaborated on.
