To scale up microLED displays to large areas, smaller displays can be titled. Because microLEDs can be truely edge-less devices, the tiling can function, yielding a seemless look.
Stretchable Electronics and inks for durable wearable electronics. These inks can be printed on TPU films which can be bonded to fabrics. This results in devices that stretch without cracking and maintain excellent electrical properties. Examples include biometric sensors & fixed resistance heaters
Silver nanoparticle inks improve every year. These improvements are often incremental, but very important. One ever-present direction of development is towards inks which offer ever higher conductivity levels at a low curing temperature and a short curing time. This a critical figure of merit because it opens more substrate choices, saves time, and lowers energy consumption costs.
The causes behind 3D printing delamination and eight ways to improve inter-layer adhesion for stronger 3D prints.
Whether you’re using the classic, V2, or Pro model, the Creality Ender 3 is a reliable entry-level 3D printer. Here we take a look at the various Ender 3 nozzle sizes you can use.
Printed batteries offer thinness and flexibility, enabling new applications, but their production is deceivingly complex. Gunter Hübner from Stuttgart Media University offered some insights at the e-Swiss conference last week.
Experimenting in the world of Flexible Hybrid Electronics (FHE) comes with a variety of hurdles. Printing technologies are vastly different in terms of materials compatibility and have pros and cons that make them suitable for particular applications. Choosing materials that match the printing technology you intend to use is the most important decision you’re going to make. But what if one could print, digitally, using any paste and ink on any substrate? Read more
