Fabrication of transparent, flexible conducing graphene thin films via soft transfer printing method

Abstract A high-performance transfer printing method using a new soluble tape which can be dissolved in acetone is proposed to be used in heterogeneous integration. Si inks array was transferred from SOI wafers onto various substrates without adhesion promoter by this new method which we refer to as the acetone soluble tape (AST) method to compare with other transfer printing methods by using thermal release tape (TRT), water soluble tape (WST) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). By using the AST method, the transfer printing process does not involve interface contention between stamp/inks and inks/receiver substrate so that it maximizes the transfer printing efficiency. Experimental results present the AST method has good performances, and various alien substrates, even curvilinear surfaces, can be selected as receiver substrates by the AST method. To examine the quality of the transferred Si inks, the Si TFTs were fabricated by using the Si membrane transferred by the AST method on sapphire substrate and the devices show the good performance. All the results confirm that the AST method is an effective method in heterogeneous integration.

Printing Method

The BaTiO3/SrTiO3 heterolayered thick films were fabricated by two different methods – thick films of BaTiO3 by screen printing method on alumina substrates electrodes with Pt, thin films of SrTiO3 by the spin-coating method on BaTiO3 thick films and once more thick films of BaTiO3 by the screen printing method on SrTiO3 layer. The leakage current and the dielectric properties were investigated for effect of various stacking sequence of sol-gel-prepared SrTiO3 layer at interface of BaTiO3 thick films. The insertion of SrTiO3 interlayer yielded BaTiO3 thick films with homogeneous and dense grain structure with the number of SrTiO3 layers. The leakage current density of the BaTiO3/SrTiO3-7 film is less that 1.5 10-9 A/cm2 at 5 V.
