The goal of this 18-month project is to mature and advance a printable, low-loss dielectric ink that was invented at a university partner.  In this project, Akita is working with industry and university partners to refine the ink’s printability (viscosity and pot life) for use by several current printing technologies, to demonstrate printability using commercial printing equipment, and to characterize the performance of the ink in harsh environments often found in aerospace applications.  We are also evaluating the safety profile and potential cost of the material, generating preliminary specifications for it, and developing online training tools to facilitate adoption of the material by the microelectronics workforce.
