In future high-tech industries, such as high-speed optical computing for massive AI, quantum cryptographic communication, and ...

A research cooperation has developed a process suitable for 3D printing that can be used to produce transparent and mechanically flexible electronic circuits. The technique can enable new applications ...

In future iterations, BotFactory believes it can 3D-print multi-layered surface-mounted circuit boards, like what’s inside your cell phone. That’s not going to be possible with the first generation of ...

What just happened? Traditional printed circuit boards are pretty much stuck being flat and 2D. But a team of researchers from the National University of Singapore has leveled up circuit printing into ...

Designing flexible electronics has long been constrained by the limits of two-dimensional printing. Now, researchers have introduced a novel method that “draws” rather than extrudes ink into air, ...

The cost of 3D printing has come down dramatically to the point you can set up a small printer in your home. Those printers only spit out little plastic baubles, though. The cutting edge of 3D ...

John Blyler is a Design News senior editor, covering the electronics and advanced manufacturing spaces. With a BS in Engineering Physics and an MS in Electrical Engineering, he has years of ...

Nano Dimension is the leading manufacturer of 3D circuit printing worldwide. The PCBs market is currently dominated by Asian manufacturers, with production costs that are more competitive than Nano ...

Every year, the world throws away about 62 million metric tons of electronic waste. Despite the valuable metals in electronics, we recycle less than a quarter of what we produce. At the end of the day ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. Michael Molitch-Hou is an additive manufacturing analyst. This article is more than 3 years old. Semiconductor packaging examples ...

Printed sensors are of high-interest on 3D and flexible substrates using a variety of metal and resistive materials. Aerosol Jet® is an ideal printing tool for precision deposition of polymeric and ...
