Topic: Printing Electronic Components and Circuits on Flexible Substrates
Time: 10:00AM, Oct. 9th(Friday)
Location: Conference Room B, BLDG 909-1F
Abstract:
Printable Electronics is a promising technology that will enable the manufacturing of ubiquitous and low cost electronic devices, which covers from simple printed conducting lines, resistors, capacitors, to OLEDs, OFETs, OPV, and memory cells. More complicated electronic circuits can be formed using these basic building blocks to perform logic, sensing, human-machine interaction, and control functions. In this talk, I will introduce the research activities on the development of printed flexible organic solar panels, field-effect-transistors, p-MOS based logic circuits, and a smart-drug packaging under NRC’s Printable Electronics Flagship Program.
