Electronic devices printed on functionalized nanopaper
Abstract of the PhD project
In recent years, sensors have gained a place in every aspect of life. From blood sugar measurement to complex arrays in modern cars, every aspect of life is controlled by one or multiple sensors. To simplify their application in some fields, like biomedical or food monitoring, flexibility of the substrate is required. Furthermore, with the growing attention to plastic pollution, an alternative to standard supporting materials is needed. Paper has already been proven a valid option for a flexible, renewable, recyclable and biodegradable substrate for electronic devices. This project will focus on the use of commercial paper from Fedrigoni Spa as a substrate for small electronic devices. From the characterization of the starting material to the final product(s), various aspect will be evaluated like the printing process for the electronic traces, the optimization of the device(s) for the desired application, etc.
