Trends were developed using printing parameters of DC bias, AC amplitude, frequency, and speed to optimize the print conditions. Print quality improved using a novel surface treatment formed by sputter coating a discontinuous gold film on insulative surfaces. Linewidths of 4 μm and single pass conductivity were achieved using the discontinuous metalized substrates.application/pdfen-USnoneelectrohydrodynamic inkjetelectronics printingflexible substratesinkjet printingnanoparticle inkprocess developmentMaterials ScienceEngineeringMaterials science and engineeringThesis
