Research and Development Projects

DigiPRINT Project

The 2-year DigiPRINT Project received funding from the European Union's OLAE+ transnational funding scheme.

The aim of Project DigiPRINT was to explore low temperature, maskless digital fabrication of organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) on large area rigid and flexible substrates. Both “laser-assisted” inkjet printing (IJ) and “laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT)” of functional materials were investigated.
