Aerosol Jet Deposition

Aerosol Jet Deposition is a high resolution printing technology for layer deposition onto flat or complex 3D substrates. Advantages of this system include capability for printing micrometric features (<10 microns), range of layer thickness from tenths of nanometers to several microns, accurate vector pattern generation with excellent edge definition and low temperature processing.

An extensive variety of deposition and substrate materials can be used, even thermosensitive materials such as epoxies, polymers, proteins and DNA. Some of the interesting applications of aerosol jet systems include electronic sensors and touchscreen displays, 3D printed electronic devices, solid fuel and solar cells, electromagnetic interference shielding and surface biofunctionalization of biomedical devices.
