Innovative, cost-effective, and reliable printing methods are becoming central to the development and integration of diverse high-tech optical, photonic, electronic, optoelectronic, and bioinformatic materials and devices. Several printing methods promise a new generation of cost-effective and disposable devices that can be made in a roll-to-roll manufacturing process.
This symposium is to provide a forum for scientists and engineers working in related fields to exchange ideas and experiences on using traditional and novel printing techniques in areas related, but not limited, to optics, photonics, data storage, displays, bioinformatics, photovoltaics, optoelectronics, organic electronics, biosensors, lighting, and others.
Session Topics
Papers regarding the latest developments in the science and technology of printing techniques and the fabrication of active and passive devices and elements ranging in size from a few nanometers to several centimeters are solicited:
- Flexible substrates, electronics, and optoelectronics, including low-temperature CVD processes
- Novel nanoprinting and nano-imprinting methods, materials, and devices
- New characterization techniques for printing-related techniques
- Novel techniques for printing template and device fabrication
- Nanothick films and devices via Gravure and screen printing
- Ink-jet printing in device fabrication
- Printing of biomaterials and biosensors
- Nanomolding and embossing techniques and applications
- ‘Printing’ with scanning probes
- Unusual printing fabrication techniques for carbon-based nanoelectronics
- Nanoscale electrical contacts and nanoxerography
