Popis: | The development of ink-based printing techniques has enabled the fabrication of electric circuits on flexible substrates. Previous studies have shown that the process method which uses a silver (Ag) precursor (AgCF3COO) and electrospun poly(styrene-block-butadiene-block-styrene) (SBS) can yield patterns with high conductivity and stretchability. However, the only method to reduce the Ag precursor absorbed in SBS is chemical reduction using a toxic solution. Here, we developed a process to fabricate a high-conductivity pattern via laser reduction by photo-chemical reaction without toxic solutions. The Ag precursor was absorbed in electrospun SBS to form a composite layer (composite SBS) with modified properties, that could more effectively absorb the photon energy than SBS without the Ag precursor. We analyzed the properties of this material, such as its light absorption coefficient, heat conductivity, and the density of both SBS and composite SBS to allow comparison of the two materials by numerical simulation. In addition, we fabricated patterns on highly heat-sensitive substrates such as burning paper and a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) thin film, as the pattern can be implemented using very low laser energy. We expect the proposed approach to become a key technology for implementing user-designed circuits for wearable sensors and devices on various flexible substrates. |
