Printed Electronics Market
The market for printed electronic devices, compon ents and systems, according to Hannah,(CEO of $300 billion worldwide within the next 20 years.(Printed Electronics Now, Dec 3, 09)
There is a signi f icant market potent ia l for pr inted electronics
but recent ly also:
(~76% printed)

Key Motivations for Printing Electronics
Large area or Roll-to-Roll processing Other technologies would be difficult/slow (ex: printed connectors, keypads, PV, lighting,)
Difficulty in processing materials otherwise Materials compatibility (ex: glucose sensor strips, OLEDs)
Substrate topography/fragility (e.g. thin solar cells, MEMS)
Thin product form factor Rollable, conformal
Price: Ultra-low price (ex: battery tester, PV, OLEDs, RFID ?)
->market has to be very large to make money
Print ing may be used only wh ere i t show s a dist inct advantage7

Dip-pen nanolithography
Dry printing (Organic vapor deposition)
Hot embossing
Laser processing (cutting sintering, patterning)
Stamping/die cutting
Slot-, dip-, spray-coating R2R etching, photolithography (!)

screen print ing factors:
- screen parameters- snap-off distance- screen tension (N/cm)- print speed- squeegee pressure- squeegee durometer- angle of contact

Jet-printing - why ?
Variable digital pattern
On-the-fly error correction (e.g. on flexible substrates)
Non-contact printing (substrates with topography, fragile substrates)
Low operation cost (low ink consumption)
Wide range of inks (hot-melt wax, solder, bio-materials, low-viscosity inks, )
why potentially not ?
limited resolution
limited printing speedjetting reliability issues
sensitivity to substrate variations
Jet-pr int ing is excel lent for prototyp ing !

Typical for inkjet printing: result of the uneven evaporation of a liquidover a droplets liquid-air interface
Coffee Stain Effect
Deegan, R.D., et al, Capillary Flow as the Cause of Ring Stains from Dried Liquid Drops , Nature 389, 1997
Dynamics of the coffee stain effect:
The evaporation rate J is larger at the edge of a droplet due to thecurvature of the droplet leading to a flow of fluid and nanoparticleswith a velocity v.
Source: U Illinois
Pinned contact line
the free surface, constrained by a pinned contact line,squeezes the fluid outwards to compensate for evaporativelosses.
Circulating flows driven by surface-tension gradients (Marangoniflows) can counteract coffee stain: Marangoni flow can beinduced by mixing two solvents with different boiling point anddifferent surface tension.
