Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents a comprehensive overview of flexible and printed electronics, explaining the most up–to–date advances, predictions for the future of the technology, and its commercial applications Information about this subject can be found across many different journals and other publications but to date there is no one book that covers all aspects of flexible and printed electronics. This book describes the technology, applications and market potential to a wide audience of engineers, researchers and business investors. It starts off by explaining the history and scientific background. The third chapter discusses materials including organic, inorganic, hybrid, semiconductor, light emitter, insulator, conductor, substrate, encapsulation, and connection. The book then outlines process technology such as printing techniques, encapsulation, and reproducibility. Flexible and printed electronics provide solutions for a wealth of applications, for example, in surveillance (passports and ID cards) and product identification (high value goods or pharmaceuticals). The next chapter presents these. Major contributors for performance progress are presented in Chapter Six. Most related companies conduct reviews into the technology but rarely get to see what their competitors are planning, so this chapter will be especially helpful to them. An outlook to the technology is given next, then a detailed look at the global market potential. Today’s technology and market leaders are examined later, and then the ecological aspects of flexible and printed electronics are looked at. Importantly, this book discusses the socio–psychological impact of flexible and printed electronics. The book concludes by outlining the impairing and enabling factors for business success.

Download or read book The Flexible Electronics Opportunity written by National Research Council (U.S.). Committee on Best Practice in National Innovation Programs for Flexible Electronics and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flexible electronics describes circuits that can bend and stretch, enabling significant versatility in applications and the prospect of low-cost manufacturing processes. They represent an important technological advance, in terms of their performance characteristics and potential range of applications, ranging from medical care, packaging, lighting and signage, consumer electronics and alternative energy (especially solar energy.) What these technologies have in common is a dependence on efficient manufacturing that currently requires improved technology, processes, tooling, and materials, as well as ongoing research. Seeking to capture the global market opportunity in flexible electronics, major U.S. competitors have initiated dedicated programs that are large in scope and supported with significant government funding to develop and acquire these new technologies, refine them, and ultimately manufacture them within their national borders. These national and regional investments are significantly larger than U.S. investment and more weighted toward later stage applied research and development. The Flexible Electronics Opportunity examines and compares selected innovation programs both foreign and domestic, and their potential to advance the production of flexible electronics technology in the United States. This report reviews the goals, concept, structure, operation, funding levels, and evaluation of foreign programs similar to major U.S. programs, e.g., innovation awards, S&T parks, and consortia. The report describes the transition of flexible electronics research into products and to makes recommendations to improve and to develop U.S. programs. Through an examination of the role of research consortia around the world to advance flexible electronics technology, the report makes recommendations for steps that the U.S. might consider to develop a robust industry in the United States. Significant U.S. expansion in the market for flexible electronics technologies is not likely to occur in the absence of mechanisms to address investment risks, the sharing of intellectual property, and the diverse technology requirements associated with developing and manufacturing flexible electronics technologies. The Flexible Electronics Opportunity makes recommendations for collaboration among industry, universities, and government to achieve the critical levels of investment and the acceleration of new technology development that are needed to catalyze a vibrant flexible electronics industry.

This book was released on 2013-11-20 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flexible Electronics for Security, Manufacturing, and Growth in the United States is the summary of a workshop convened in September 2010 by Policy and Global Affairs' Board on Science, Technology, and Economic Policy to review challenges, plans, and opportunities for growing a robust flexible electronics industry in the United States. Business leaders, academic experts, and senior government officials met to review the role of research consortia around the world to advance flexible electronics technology. Presenters and participants sought to understand their structure, focus, funding, and likely impact, and to determine what appropriate steps the United States might consider to develop a robust flexible electronics industry. Flexible electronics refers to technologies that enable flexibility in the manufacturing process as well as flexibility as a characteristic of the final product. Features such as unconventional forms and ease of manufacturability provide important advantages for flexible electronics over conventional electronics built on rigid substrates. Today, examples of flexible electronics technologies are found in flexible flat-panel displays, medical image sensors, photovoltaic sheets, and electronic paper. Some industry experts predict that the market for global flexible electronics will experience a double digit growth rate, reaching $250 billion by 2025, but most experts believe that the United States is not currently poised to capitalize on this opportunity. Flexible Electronics for Security, Manufacturing, and Growth in the United States examines and compares selected innovation programs, both foreign and domestic, and their potential to advance the production of flexible electronics technology.
