Laser processing in the production of conductive tracks by printing silver nanoparticles for the needs of electronics
Main Article Content
Abstract
Formation of conductive tracks on the ceramics substrates based on combining the inkjet printing method of stabilized silver nanoparticles and its laser sintering using light induced substrate heating mechanism is described in th work. Optimal laser radiation parameters which provide the conductivity of fabricated structures at the rate of 10% of bulk silver conductivity were found. Also the laser annealing of silver nanoparticles on the polyimide substrate was implemented
