Specialized Print Apps
There are print professionals out there seeking to expand their service offerings into this exciting new profit center. But to do so effectively, they first need to learn more about what PE is and how they can participate in it.
How can print service providers (PSPs) take advantage of the growing market for radio-frequency identification (RFID) and printed electronics? Prior to 2012, the cumulative number of RFID tags sold over the past 65 years was 15.1 billion. Some 20 percent of those were sold in 2011, according to...

PARC CEO Stephen Hoover added: “Samsung Fine Chemicals is a world-class company with global reach and superior products, and we are excited about our relationship with them to help them prototype devices based on their electronic materials. This work we are doing … is another step toward deploying printed electronics into various consumer electronics applications and products.”
PARC also is involved in printed electronics, developing jet-printing processes for organic semiconductors (including all-printed TFT arrays, pictured) and conductors – resulting in novel functionality and reduced manufacturing costs. These high-performance printed devices are achieved by materials understanding and device design that allows the formation of good dielectric-semiconductor and semiconductor-metal interfaces. [video example] The printed transistors have exceptional performance for polymers, and meet all requirements to address displays. Our a-Si, low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS), and organic semiconductor TFTs – which have the advantage of low-temperature deposition and low-elastic modulus – have also been applied to various radiation detectors, including x-ray, ultrasound, and neutron imaging.
