Pen Plotter as a Low-Cost Platform for Rapid Device Prototyping with Solution-Processable Nanomaterials

The use of inexpensive benchtop plotters in combination with refillable writing pens and markers as a powerful route to print nanomaterial-based inks on paper substrates is studied. It is proved that this approach is very robust, it can be used to print inks of many different solution-processable na...

Descripción
Sumario:The use of inexpensive benchtop plotters in combination with refillable writing pens and markers as a powerful route to print nanomaterial-based inks on paper substrates is studied. It is proved that this approach is very robust, it can be used to print inks of many different solution-processable nanomaterials, and is very precise, allowing pattern features with pitch separation as narrow as 80 μm. The general character of this printing platform by printing van der Waals materials, organic semiconductors, hybrid perovskites and colloidal nanoparticles with a broad range of properties (from insulators to superconductors) is illustrated. The system is used to easily create several example applications such as an all-printed, paper-supported photodetector. This printing platform can be very helpful for research groups with a wealth of expertise in synthesis of solution-processable nanomaterials but that lack the infrastructure, resources, and expertise to perform traditional inkjet printing for fast device prototyping. © 2023 The Authors.
