Although interest in redox flow batteries (RFBs) for energy storage has grown over the last few years, implementation of RFB technology has been slow and challenging. Recent developments in 3D-printing of materials enable a transforming technology for fast, reproducible and documented cell manufacture. This technology can give an improved engineering approach to cell design and fabrication, nee...

An important challenge for Organic Light-Emitting Diodes (OLEDs) manufacturing is the patterning method of the organic materials used for different colors. In this talk, a Large-Area wet Micro-Printing (LAMP) technique is proposed and demonstrated for organic device patterning. A printing plate is first prepared by surface engineering so that a designed surface energy pattern is achieved. The p...

3D printing is a method of manufacturing in which materials, such as plastic or metal, are deposited onto one another in layers to produce a three dimensional object, such as a pair of eye glasses or other 3D objects. This process contrasts with traditional ink-based printers which produce a two dimensional object (ink on paper). To date, 3D printing has primarily been used in engineering to cr...

Structuring SU-8 based superparamagnetic polymer composite (SPMPC) containing Fe3O4 nanoparticles by photolithography is limited in thickness due to light absorption by the nanoparticles. Hence, obtaining thicker structures requires alternative processing techniques. This paper presents a method based on inkjet printing and thermal curing for the fabrication of much thicker hemispherical micros...

Microfluidic platforms have greatly benefited the biological and medical fields, however standard practices require a high cost of entry in terms of time and energy. The utilization of three-dimensional (3D) printing technologies has greatly enhanced the ability to iterate and build functional devices with unique functions. However, their inability to fabricate within microfluidic devices great...

3D printing has now been recognized as a very practical technique to create 3D structures with milli-/micron-scale resolution. In tissue engineering, particularly, people utilize 3D printing technique to integrate biodegradable polymers to tissue scaffolds. Hydrogel is highly potential material that provides aqua environment and enables nutrition and oxygen transportation, all of which are requ...

DECprint Printing Services software controls a variety of printer features for a wide range of printers. It supports several different page description languages, handles multiple media simultaneously, and uses different I/O interconnections and communication protocols. Operating within the VMS printing environment, it implements a large number of user-specified options to the PRINT command. DE...

Advances in wireless technologies, low-power microelectronic devices, and easy access to the internet have enabled the ability to interconnect electronic objects, so that the objects can communicate with each other, make decisions, and provide users information that helps to improve their life. Towards such an ecosystem, low-cost, wearable, flexible electronics in the form of smart watches, sen...

This paper examines the effects of the dramatic changes incurred in the sector of printing and publishing after the introduction of digital printing. The print production process is rapidly shifting from analogue to digital technologies as the infrastructure (or basis) for workflows. The efficiency of the production process requires the digitalisation of all steps and elimination of analogue me...
