研究目的
Investigating the fabrication of high-resolution, high-aspect-ratio conductive networks on plastic substrates using roll-to-roll imprinting and the SCALE process.
研究成果
The research successfully demonstrated a method for fabricating high-resolution, high-aspect-ratio conductive networks on flexible substrates using roll-to-roll imprinting and the SCALE process. The conductors exhibited low resistance per length and were easily integrated into networks, offering a foundation for high-throughput manufacturing of printed electronics.
研究不足
The study faced challenges in achieving deeper channels with the recessed design due to the need for thicker UV-curable resin layers and potential buckling of high-aspect-ratio stamp features. The electroless plating process was identified as the slowest step in conductor fabrication.
