LSU Master's Theses
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are becoming a promising new material for use in many fields including the field of electronics. Their mechanical and electrical properties lend themselves to be used in a new generation of electronic devices, namely flexible electronics. Although many deposition methods for carbon nanotubes exist, inkjet printing offers many advantages including superior patterning ability and low-cost fabrication. Presented in this work is the use of inkjet printing in order to deposit carbon nanotubes onto a flexible transparency film. The methods for developing and printing an aqueous single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) ink and an aqueous multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) …
