Effects of different thermal sintering temperatures on pattern resistivity of printed silver ink with multiple particle sizes

Resistivity is considered a significant parameter for printing a conductive pattern and nano-ink. Nevertheless, the resistivity of a sintered printing pattern varies with the performance of the pattern and nano-ink. The cross section or non-uniformity of the printing pattern is not taken into consid...

Effects of different thermal sintering temperatures on pattern resistivity of printed silver ink with multiple particle sizes
description Resistivity is considered a significant parameter for printing a conductive pattern and nano-ink. Nevertheless, the resistivity of a sintered printing pattern varies with the performance of the pattern and nano-ink. The cross section or non-uniformity of the printing pattern is not taken into consideration, and the changes in resistivity are not measured during the whole sintering process. In this work, the cross section uniformity of the pattern is improved, which is attributable to the standard sample template fabricated by laser engraving. First, the ink containing 50 wt. % silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with sizes ranging from 30 to 100 nm was prepared.
