The method involves depositing patterned film layers containing multiple materials from solution in a single processing step in order to scale and coat multi-material designs.
About
Georgia Tech Inventors have developed a method for scaling and coating continuous multi-material stripes and patterns. Conventional slot coating is widely recognized for its scalability, simplicity, and robustness across a wide range of coating fluids. Here, these advantages are extended to unconventional pattern requirements. The method involves depositing patterned film layers containing multiple materials from solution in a single processing step.
Key Benefits
Exceptional flexibility with respect to material selection Highly scalable
Applications
Flexible hybrid electronics printed sensors (environmental, biomedical, etc.) Optoelectronic devices (photovoltaics, LEDs, solid-state lighting, printed battery electrodes)
