Titre :	The designing of a flexible and biodegradable strain sensor to be worn on an e-skin using Printed Electronics Technology
Type de document :	Travail de fin d'études
Auteurs :	Yannick ELENS, Auteur ; Clémence Flémal, ; Agarwala Shweta,
Editeur :	ECAM
Année de publication :	2023
Note générale :	Aarhus University (Danemark)
Langues :	Anglais (eng)
Index. décimale :	TFE - Electronique
Résumé :	Printed electronics is a rapidly growing field that has the potential to revolutionize the way electronics is manufactured. This thesis provides an overview of the current state of printed electronics and explores the technique of inkjet printing with different functional inks on substrates of Polyethylene terephthalate (PET ) and Poly Vinyl Alcohol (PVA). The project demonstrates a feasibility study of using inkjet printing to produce flexible and biodegradable devices. The research describes the current state-of-the-art in printed electronics with focus on inkjet printing, different functional inks , importance of substrate selection, and key factors that affect the performance of the inkjet printer. The central idea of the research is to create a flexible and fully printed device that has maximum components that can be biodegraded. This entails design and fabrication of strain sensors on different substrates and their chemical and electrical characterizations. It is envisioned that the final printed device can act as electronic skin (e-skin). I also propose future work and improvements for the project and targeted impact on the electronics industry.
