Silver conductive thin films deposited on glass and polyimide substrates by using ink jet printing are studied in this work. Characterization of the printed thin films and comparison with sputtered films are investigated. The micro texture, residual stress, adhesion, hardness, optical reflectance, and electric resistance of the thin films are discussed. The result shows that the ink jet printing has the possibility to replace sputtering in thin film deposition, especially for the polymer substrates.

The effects of Al doping to the thermoelectric properties of ZnO thin films fabricated through ink-jet printing were studied in this paper. Ink-jet printing was used to deposit the Al doped ZnO thin films. A minimum of 50 print cycles was required to obtain continuous film with approximately 9 μm thick thin films. It was possible to obtain high thermoelectric properties of ZnO by controlling the ratios of dopant added and the temperature of the heat treatments.The XRD traces of Al doped ZnO exhibit a polycrystalline hexagonal structure for the wurtzite phase of ZnO. There were no additional phase detected for Al doped ZnO thin films with increasing amount of Al dopants and heat treatment temperature. The results show Al doping had improved the thermoelectric properties of ZnO with an increased in electrical conductivity. The electrical conductivity of pure ZnO thin film (5 S/cm) was enhanced with increasing the dopant to 4wt% Al doped ZnO (114 S/cm). Negative Seebeck values were observed for all the samples that indicated n-type semiconductor. Pure ZnO samples have a measured Seebeck coefficient-17.63 μV/K decreased to-14.35 μV/K with 4 wt% Al doped.

Conductive Thin Films

With the advantage of simplicity and low cost, ink jet printing has the potential to replace the traditional chemical and physical deposition technology in thin film fabrication. In this work, silver conductive thin films are deposited on glass and polyimide substrates by ink jet printing, where some major characteristics of the printed thin films are investigated and compared to those deposited by sputtering. The micro texture and residual stresses of the thin films are measured with X-ray diffractometry (XRD). Using thin film scratch tester, the adhesion of thin films deposited by both ink jet printing and sputtering is studied. Further observations on electric and optical performance by using visible wavelength photospectrometry, four-point probe, and surface profiler are also discussed. The result shows that the micro texture of the printed thin film behaves as good as the sputtered thin film. Furthermore, the micro scratch result illustrates that the adhesion of the printed thin film is even better than the sputtered thin film. It emphasizes that, after certain baking process, the ink jet printing has the possibility to replace sputtering in thin film deposition, especially for the polymer substrates.
