printedelectronics
Printed electronics is an emerging area within the field of electronic device manufacturing that involves the production of electronic components and circuits through printing techniques. This approach leverages various printing methods—such as inkjet, screen, gravure, and flexographic printing—to deposit conductive, semiconductive, and insulating materials onto flexible, rigid, or unconventional substrates. The primary advantage of printed electronics is its potential for low-cost, large-area, and high-throughput fabrication, making it suitable for applications in wearable devices, sensors, flexible displays, smart packaging, and electronic textiles.
Printed electronic components include transistors, sensors, antennas, light-emitting diodes, and photovoltaic cells. These components are typically
