3D Printed Electronics: Role of Materials and Processes
摘要
The advancement in 3D printing technology has opened great avenues for the fabrication of complex structures for numerous applications. One of the sectors which is influenced by this is electronics. Even though printed electronics have been utilized previously for various applications. However, the adoption of 3D printing for the fabrication of electronic components and devices shows great potential. Moreover, the development of viable materials for the fabrication of electronic components and devices has further paved the way for the utilization of the 3D printing approach for printed electronics. This noncontact type method is developing at the quickest rate right now, which is gaining importance for media, healthcare, aerospace, transportation, and other sectors. The present paper discusses the recent advancements in 3D printing technologies and materials for electronics. A comparison of contact and noncontact type printing is also presented.
