Acronym (up to 20 characters) Aerosol Jet Prin-ng of Sensors
Title of the EoI (up to 10 words) Aerosol Jet technology for direct printing
of sensors or micro-systems.
Project vision & innovation
- High resolu-on: 10µm minimum feature size
- Maskless process: high flexibility and cost efficiency
- Large range of available inks (viscosity up to 2500 cP)
- Conduc-ve, dielectrics, semi-‐conduc-ve,
and even biologic materials
- Compatible with low Tg materials (local laser sintering)
- Flat, flexible and even 3D substrates
è Direct prin-ng of (bio-‐)sensors on 3D substrates
Abstract Aerosol Jet Printing (AJP) is an innovative technique used for the selective deposition of any material (solution or nanoparticles in suspension in solvent) onto flat but also non-flat, flexible and even 3D substrates. No mask required to create any micron-size pattern. Local sintering by laser beam allows sensitive substrates to be addressed without any damage. A large range of inks can be processed from conductive to biological, passing by dielectric or semi-conductor materials. Sirris aims at exploring new kinds of sensors, such as embedded strain
gauges, integrated bio-‐sensors, … to be printed by AJP.
Fields of Application
- electronics: micro-circuitry, connectics, electrode deposition on any substrate - sensing: direct printing of (bio-)sensors, gauges, … - any kind of surface functionalization.
Existing or expected Partnership / Complementaries / R&D chain
In order to extend its developments in this field, Sirris is looking for
- technical cooperation - joint research project - manufacturing agreement (sub-contracting or co-contracting),
from prototype to pre-series
Space for partner logos
