Thermal Vs. Photonic Sintering Of Nano Silver Based Conductive Inks, Bilge N. Altay, Paul D. Fleming May 2015

Thermal Vs. Photonic Sintering Of Nano Silver Based Conductive Inks, Bilge N. Altay, Paul D. Fleming

Bilge Nazli Altay

Conductive ink formulations with different electrical properties and their sintering methods after printing are an emerging area of interest. In this work, different line width and resolutions were printed on a a flexible PET substrate using a nano silver based conductive ink with gravure printing. Then printed traces were sintered with two different sintering methods and the results were compared.


The Synthesis Of Ultrafine And Nanocomposite Powders Based On Copper, Silver And Alumina, Zeljko J. Kamberovic Jan 2006

The Synthesis Of Ultrafine And Nanocomposite Powders Based On Copper, Silver And Alumina, Zeljko J. Kamberovic

Zeljko J Kamberovic

Contemporary materials with predetermined properties can be successfully synthesized by utilising the principles of hydrometallurgy and powder metallurgy. The results of developing a new procedure for the synthesis of ultrafine and nanocomposite powders based on copper, silver and alumina are presented in this paper. A two-component nanocomposite powder, Cu-Al2O3, was synthesized by a thermochemical procedure, by deposition from an aqueous solution of soluble metal salts, Cu(NO3)2 and Al(NO3)3. A three-component Cu-Ag-Al2O3 powder was produced by mechanically alloying nanocomposite Cu-Al2O3 powder and Cu-Ag powder, synthesized by the thermochemical procedure. The produced powders were characterized by determining the particle specific area, pouring …
