Implement Large Area Processing For The Applications In Printed Electronics And Functional Films

This module is designed for and targeted at engineers or PMETs who have basic background knowledge of printing and interested in the knowledge and skills pertaining to flexible printed electronics and functional films. The proposed course is going to introduce new technology to conventional printing industry that willing to transform and value-add to new business opportunity. Printed electronic is expected to facilitate widespread and low-cost electronics for applications such as flexible displays, smart labels, decorative and animated posters, and active clothing. Flexible hybrid electronic is an innovative process that combine the flexibility, thinness, and lightweight nature of large area printed electronics with the processing power of semiconductors for new application in wearables, healthcare and consumer electronics.

For developing a typical printed electronics, sheet-based printing and large area processing are two essential skillsets for flexible functional printing, plus device design and characterisation. We propose to cover these two sets of necessary knowledge and skills on fabrication processes of flexible functional films, such as printed lighting, printed heater, printed electrode and various printed sensors application. Comprehensive solution from materials and substrate selection, process development, product design and application are covered. Through our innovative Learn-Practise-Implement training module, which is essentially different from the conventional classroom teaching, we are confident that we are able to deliver the course contents and meet the course objective in total 41 training hours as defined in this module.
