Beschreibung
Whilst inkjet technology is well-established on home and smalloffice desktops and is now having increasing impact in commercialprinting, it can also be used to deposit materials other than inkas individual droplets at a microscopic scale. This allows metals,ceramics, polymers and biological materials (including livingcells) to be patterned on to substrates under precise digitalcontrol. This approach offers huge potential advantages formanufacturing, since inkjet methods can be used to generatestructures and functions which cannot be attained in otherways.
Beginning with an overview of the fundamentals, this bookcoversthe key components, for example piezoelectric print-heads andfluids for inkjet printing, and the processes involved. It goes onto describe specific applications, e.g. MEMS, printed circuits,active and passive electronics, biopolymers and living cells, andadditive manufacturing. Detailed case studies are included onflat-panel OLED displays, RFID (radio-frequency identification)manufacturing and tissue engineering, while a comprehensiveexamination of the current technologies and future directions ofinkjet technology completes the coverage.
With contributions from both academic researchers and leadingnames in the industry, Inkjet Technology for DigitalFabrication is a comprehensive resource for technicaldevelopment engineers, researchers and students in inkjettechnology and system development, and will also appeal toresearchers in chemistry, physics, engineering, materials scienceand electronics.
