Printed organic and inorganic electronics continue to be of large interest for sensors, bioelectronics, and security applications. Many printing techniques have been investigated, albeit often with typical minimum feature sizes in the tens of micrometer range and requiring post-processing procedures at elevated temperatures to enhance the performance of functional materials. Herein, we introduce laser printing with three different inks, for the semiconductor ZnO and the metals Pt and Ag, as a facile process for fabricating printed functional electronic devices with minimum feature sizes below 1 µm. The ZnO printing is based on laser-induced hydrothermal synthesis. Importantly, no sintering of any sort needs to be performed after laser printing for any of the three materials. To demonstrate the versatility of our approach, we show functional diodes, memristors, and a physically unclonable function based on a 6 × 6 memristor crossbar architecture. In addition, we realize functional transistors by combining laser printing and inkjet printing.
In this Letter, we present a light field regulation method to form a ring light field with controllable density distribution. This method is to compress the phase modulation depth of Bessel holograms superimposed with blazed gratings and tune the diffraction efficiency of the superimposed holograms by gray scale. The experimental light field generated by the superimposed holograms is consistent with the simulation results. By designing the phase modulation depth of the superimposed holograms with different parameters, ring light fields with suitable intensity distribution are obtained, and the fabrication of ring microstructure with uniform wall thickness is realized. Finally, as a special case of processing, dynamic holographic processing of high-aspect-ratio microtubes with variable diameter and uniform wall thickness is demonstrated.
