Robust Ag nanoplate ink for flexible electronics packaging

Robust Ag nanoplate ink for flexible electronics packaging.

Nanoinks are currently a topic of heightened interest with respect to low temperature bonding processes and printable electronics. We have developed an innovative polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)-stabilized Ag nanoplate ink amenable to very strong low temperature packaging, and investigated the relationship between bonding strength and electrical conductivity post-bonding. PVP shell plastic deformati...

Dispensing of high concentration Ag nano-particles ink for ultra-low resistivity paper-based writing electronics.

Paper-based writing electronics has received a lot of interest recently due to its potential applications in flexible electronics. To obtain ultra-low resistivity paper-based writing electronics, we developed a kind of ink with high concentration of Ag Nano-particles (up to 80 wt%), as well as a related dispensing writing system consisting an air compressor machine and a dispenser. Additionally...

Environmentally Responsible Electronics Packaging

he United States is running out of T landftlls and that is where most trash, and thus most packaging 1 material, ends up. For example, we generate 180 million tons of solid waste per year, 70% of which goes into landfills. However, in the last 12 years, two-thirds of our landfills have been exhausted. The problem gained national attention in 1989 when a garbage barge from New York wandered acro...

High Temperature Electronics Packaging

Materials and processes are being developed for packaging of low and medium power, high temperature electronics (up to 500). Ceramic (Al2O3 and AlN) hermetic packages are being used. Die attach techniques based on patterned Au bumps, Au-Si and off-eutectic Au-Sn have been demonstrated. Au thermosonic wire bonding provides a monometallic interconnect system between the die and the package pads. ...
